Bingo!

In Game Change, didn’t Obama say the Congress works just like the Illinois State Senate? This is SOP in the NY legislature and City Council — make a big noise about something they know is going nowhere. That way they get the credit with the supporters but never have to face the opponents.

On the other hand, McCain did vote against the Federal Gay Marriage ban, keeping it under 50 votes and effectively killing it. That’s a thousand times more than Obama has ever done for gays.

And do you think McCain payed a price with the conservative base for that?

Actually, in order for gays to serve openly in the military, the Uniform Code of Military Justice would have to be changed. That can only be done by Congress. The President can sign an Executive Order that would allow gays to serve but they’d pretty much have to agree to be celibate.

He said it because he knows nothing will happen in 2010. It was pure, undiluted, bullshit.

There’s no problem that a good committee can’t study. If you’ve got a good committee working on a problem, an executive is given the space to sit back and monitor the situation closely before implementing a call for some other agency to start looking for a solution.

[...] else? Oh, yes, the whole DADT thing that Obama punted out to the Congress. That’s exactly what he did. DADT could have long ago been [...]

I really can’t believe how stupid some of these so called lefties are with their blind support of this guy….they pretty much liked anyone but Hillary…started with Edwards then they went to Obama…as we can see neither of their choices were good ones.

He’s a homophobe I am sure. Do you remember in one of the primary debates…someone joked about he and another candidate getting HIV tests or something, and he was totally uncomfortable witht that remark…hate to say it but he would fit how the average black male feels about gay folks…that community is disproprotionately homophobic, and that is not a racial slur, it is a fact.

Me too. That’s why both parties especially the Dems take the gays for granted. Butch up (so to speak =-O ) and stop being so easy.

I served at a amall depot, TFOD, in Bar Le Duc, France from ’55 to ’56, In those days the draft was on, and I opted to be called early in order to get the GI Bill for college afterwards. I went at age 18. I was gay and clueless. Never dreamt of making a pass on base. I did that in Paris, Luxembourg and Amseterdam on weekends and leave. One night, 20 years later in Boston, at a huge square-shaped gay bar near the Commons, I heard a voice that was oh so familiar. I knew it belonged to Sgt. Perkins from TFOD, and as I remembered him, drunk, and loud, Perk! He went happily crazy that I knew him from TFOD although he didn’t remember me. I was a lot younger and at a lesser rank. He was thrilled to meet me and to talk about the old base. He knew everything about the very active gay life going on at this tiny base. He said it was crazy and all undergound, and there I was completely clueless. After I left to come back to the US, he was jailed for embezzling funds from the Post Dry Clearners and dishonorably discharged. He had then become a drunk doing menial jobs in Boston. I had gotten my BS and a good job. We kept in touch until I moved away from NE a few years later. God I really miss that poor soul. That’s my little story, never told it before, about life on a tiny base. In those days, it was all underground, and this I found in civilian life afterwards as well, until the revolution of the last 20 years. You didn’t dare breathe a word on the subject.

BTW, although he was indeed an unscrupulous person before he turned his life around, I believe Larry Sinclair’s story about Obama. It has the ring of truth and fits the facade and the total lie that is Barack Obama. I agree LJ, BO is a spineless wimp. It’s a shame that the lives of homosexuals in the mililtary are in cotnol of this rank hypocrite.
