I'm sure that Zero would love to see homosexual marriage, but he also realizes that there aren't nearly as many homosexuals as the left claims and he's not willing to get into a political fight to satisfy two to three percent of the population.

I would love to be privvy to the decision making process of taking this off the website. Who decided? How high did it go? That would be a great question for the annointed’s next press party.

[manc]

agreed

the homosexual groups have always said there are more of them than there really is.

the fact is that if the GOP used this we could wing some certain seats in certain areas.
There is no reason to appease 2 to 3% of the population and even so within that group not all want to have their so called marriage.

See how many states got their sham marriage after the election
The homosexuals and the left hate this subject mentioned near an election and work behind the scenes, no pun intended

Oh wait, I read this wrong (says alot about not reading the entire story but just the headline), thought it was opposition to gay marriage that he was changing. This is good. Is Obama putting his toes into the DINO camp?

[ontap]

Do you really think it is that high?

[Gator113]

This is too timely and I don’t believe in coincidences..... I suspect that the recent Miss California statement forced his hand.

This is becuase of what Trump said. Clever man, great for him and us.

The numbers I’ve seen indicate that homosexuals make up around two to three percent of the population, but my guess is that less than half of them actually want to get “married” because their lifestyle seems very opposed to monogamy.

There is no reason to appease 2 to 3% of the population and even so within that group not all want to have their so called marriage.

From what I've seen, the majority of them prefer promiscuous hedonism to monogamy.

“we’ve always been at war with Eastasia”

[skeeter]

At the rate he's backpedaling from his far-left positions on flashpoint issues, BO must be privy to some really unpleasant polling news.

I don't expect for a moment he's doing it for the right reasons, though. He needs to maintain his popularity until he can shove the main parts of his disastrous agenda thru before his political capitol completely runs out.

I think prop 8 in California followed by the Miss California flap have made the polling on this issue very unfavorable and O doesn’t like to be on the unpopular side of issues!

[ontap]

The stats are all over the place. For a long time the 10% figure was floated out there and then the 1-2% Personally I believe it to be in the 1/2% range if that.

[MrB]

Any attempt to inflate the number beyond the .1-.5% figure is just trying to normalize a mental disorder.

It does those suffering from SSAD harm, not good.

[Crolis]

Of course. We have always been at war with Eastasia. Moreover:

• No animal shall sleep in a bed with sheets
• No animal shall drink alcohol to excess
• No animal shall kill any other animal without cause.

It would be interesting to construct a graphical timeline on whitehouse.gov to track all the deletions, additions and changes. This post brought to you by ObaMiniTru(tm).

This is good. Is Obama putting his toes into the DINO camp?

I don't think it's good. I think it's further proof he's a muzzie.

[Oldpuppymax]

Not to worry. He’ll find lots of ways to repay the tens of millions given to his campaign by wealthy homosexuals in Cal. and NY.

We are definitely living in Orwell's world, where we have GWB as the SNOWBALL/GOLDSTEIN [take your pick]on the receiving end of a daily rant of hate and blame.

Definition of words change to suit the time and todays truth is tomorrow's lie & vice versa.

[Dilbert San Diego]

According to statistics I saw, in Massachusetts, only about 20% of gay couples in committed relationships are married. So the vast majority of homosexual couples don’t want to exercise this “right” they are fighting for.

Same-sex marriage has been allowed in Mass. for five years now. Only about 4% of all marriages are between same-sex couples. Of the same-sex couples, over 60% are two women getting “married”.
