So did Bachmann and Santorum - no surprise there.\ \ Witch hunts anyone?\ \ Anyone in the LGBT community who advocates anything but Obama''s reelection 2012 is a self-loathing fool.\ \ Full text at link....

• "Anyone in the LGBT community who advocates anything but Obama''s reelection 2012 is a self-loathing fool."%0D\ %0D\ %0D\ %0D\ Preach it!%0D\ %0D

• At long last, have they no sense of decency?

• "Anyone in the LGBT community who advocates anything but Obama''s reelection 2012 is a self-loathing fool."%0D\ %0D\ And if they add "fiscal conservative" they should be fucked and burned...

• Obama bellowed that "GOD IS IN THE MIX!!!!" when justifying his opposition to same-sex marriage.\ \ Fuck his favorite fat ass pastor, too.

• R4 Yes, we know all that shit, but the bottom line is that we have no choice but to pick "the best of the worst" and while Obama may not have done much to help gays, he''s not a threat to us like these other assholes are.%0D\ %0D

  Idiots

• I can''t fap to this "lesser of two evils" stuff anymore. \ \ Obama depresses me.

• Hmm, what happened to the Tea Party watchcry about less government intrusion in peoples'' activities?%0D\ %0D\ It''s hard to imagine a bigger waste of taxpayer money.

• Ah, r4, knew you''d show up at some point.\ \ President Obama "bellowed"? He was being interviewed by a Christian group.\ \ He categorically rejects a constitutional amendment.\ \ Here''s the interview. Note the clear lack of bellowing.\ \ Tell us - is President Obama launching a commission to investigate "harassment" of traditional marriage supporters?\ \ Has he ever suppressed anyone''s First Amendment rights?\ \ Wake up.

• And another interview, admittedly a year earlier...\ \ [quote]I can''t fap to this "lesser of two evils" stuff anymore.\ \ [quote]Obama depresses me.\ \ Snap out of it, Betty.\ \ When it comes to LGBT issues, it is not the "lesser of two evils."\ \ It is good versus evil when it comes to our rights.\ \ r4 says the same crap over and over. He''s a freeper or a doglaker...ignore him. He will willingly trade his rights to kick President Obama out of office.\ \ He''s just as dangerous as a Romney or a Bachmann.

• Hmmmmm, which is better a 2nd term democratic president who doesn''t have to give a fuck about opinion polls or a republican bigot. \ \ If the choice isn''t clear to you, then seek therapy.

• There is a night and day difference between those Republicans and Obama when it comes to rights for gay people.\ \ Please actually read the words of the pledge and then get your head out of your ass.

• I''m not going to be badgered to voting for homophobia-lite again. \ \ Besides, Rick has raw sex appeal!

• Listen up, R4 (and your silent supporters):\ \ Since so many LGBT are fond of making analogies to black Americans'' repression and civil rights struggle, deal with this: We have ALWAYS had to vote for the "lesser of two evils." Do you think we have EVER had a Presidential candidate who spoke exactly to all our needs? One who delivered true, lasting rights and equality [bold]without regard for the intractable opposing sides?[/bold] \ \ No. Since before the days of the abolitionists, we have had to deal with incremental change--and slow increments, at that, with many backward steps along the way. \ \ But we vote for the candidate who 1) Best speaks to our needs and interests AND who 2) Has an actual chance of winning.\ \ Same with women''s rights (still no ERA) and the social safety net.

• I see we still have some gays who think that being slapped in the face is the same as being shot in the face. \ \ Poor dears, you scream an holler about Obama not doing anything for you, yet if Mitt Romney set you on fire, then spit on you, you would view it as him trying to put out the fire and therefore, he''ll get your vote! You are a lost, idiotic breed of gay.\ \ Don''t you understand that the GOP is getting WORSE, not better?

• and* holler.

• No, I will not vote for Obama again.\ \ As George W. Bush said:\ \ "Fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me - you can''t get fooled again."

• [quote]Since so many LGBT are fond of making analogies to black Americans'' repression and civil rights struggle, deal with this: We have ALWAYS had to vote for the "lesser of two evils." Do you think we have EVER had a Presidential candidate who spoke exactly to all our needs? One who delivered true, lasting rights and equality without regard for the intractable opposing sides? %0D\ %0D\ %0D\ %0D\ R13, are you saying that even Obama was the "lesser of two evils" for black Americans? hmmmmm

• The poor Obots are going to injure themselves trying to spin for their empty suit.

  Pulled groin

• Romeny signs NOM pledge and gay white men call out Obama on it.\ \ What the fuck?

• This is what I''ve never really understood about some gays and Obama and Obama the politician.\ \ Obama, like every other primary candidate took a certain "political" position about gay marriage. He has kept up that "political" position as president, because it is the smart position to take. \ \ I do not, for one second, believe that Obama is anti-gay. Obama is a well educated, Chicago democrat, essentially a liberal, who ran as a liberal in the primary and went to the center in the general and remained there for political reasons. \ \ Obama is a friend, often silent, but what has been accomplished, in terms of gay rights, under his watch has been tremendous.\ \ Real change happens slowly. It took 250 years to free the slaves. It took another 100 for American blacks to be treated as equal. \ \ You don''t get everything you want in a day, but you''ve gotten plenty in the last 2 plus years, more than you would have gotten under a republican administration.

• R18, you are a complete and utter moron. Go away and quit embarrassing yourself because this isn''t even about Obama. This is about the fact that when it comes to gays, anyone who would vote GOP is about as low as one can get.

  R14

• Obama can throw his crumbs elsewhere.\ \ I''m unimpressed.

• What I''d like to know from the geniuses who vote Rep is this: Who is more likely to do more for gays? A Dem who wins a second term and no longer has to worry about votes or a Republican in his first term?\ \ If you''re trying to make this about "[childish epithet posted by a republican tool]s" and other nonsense, it is because you have no real answer for why you would ever vote for a Republican. If you claim you''re voting against Obama, then you vote THIRD party. You don''t specifically vote for the GOP unless you''re looking to have them win.

• Are you certain it''s gay white men R19?

• r22 = Romeny

• [quote] Romeny signs NOM pledge and gay white men call out Obama on it. What the fuck?\ \ You bitches are deranged. You do know that, right? lol

• We have a topic about how leading Republicans vowed to CHANGE OUR COUNTRY''S CONSTITUTION TO ENSHRINE THAT GAYS DON''T DESERVE THE SAME RIGHTS.\ \ And you people are seriously trying to attack Obama. \ \ If you can''t see how much of an idiot you are being I don''t understand. You are just as pathetic as those GOProud idiots who can''t see how much conservatives fuckin hate them.

• [quote] You are just as pathetic as those GOProud idiots who can''t see how much conservatives fuckin hate them.\ \ maybe that''s who they are

• Thank you R27, the people bashing Obama are out of their fucking minds. Let them see how far they''ll get with Romney or Bachmann as president. Fools, all of them.

• Name calling ain''t gonna work this time, Obots!

  "IDIOT"

• lol, r30 that post is just too easy.

• Libtards post articles like this just to make a stupied point.

• [quote]Name calling ain''t gonna work this time, Obots!\ \ No need to call names.\ \ You''re a self-loathing, anti-social individual who will vote against your self-interest as a member of the LGBT community to satisfy your rage at President Obama.\ \ I suspect you''re a racist, but it doesn''t really matter. You''re quite deranged and there is really no arguing with dolts who would gladly aid their oppressors.\ \ You need help. Truly. You have a form of mental illness and you need to address it.

• I have no idea what you are talking about R26

  mhb

• Get ''em R33!

• Ahhh...I didn''t even bother to look but it''s no surprise.\ \ r30 = r32, r4, r6, r12, r16, r18, r22 and I''m sure he will be back for more.\ \ Sociopath.

• Is R32''s post a parody? Honestly, I can''t tell anymore.

• Romeny? Who is thees "Romeny"?

  Rodiney

• Um, is it me, or are you all missing something.\ \ The pledge includes language promising to appoint supreme court justices and an attorney general who will go back to the original intent of the founding fathers.\ \ OK, please, someone with knowledge of the constitution and bill of rights please weigh in.\ \ Originally, weren''t only white men who owned property allowed to vote? What about slavery? I''m sure there are other issues here.

• nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom

  What My Bunny Sounds LIke Eating A Carrot

• I just don''t understand how people could even think about defending the Republican Party. \ \ What good do they actually do? In a perverse way they are basically Dataloungers who bitch and moan about anything and everything. \ \ Change? bad\ \ Other people''s success? How dare he! That was just luck! He doesn''t deserve it!\ \ Other people''s opinion? Get her! That''s just wrong! You should be ashamed for being SO wrong!\ \ Being superior? I am, I am!\ \ Accountability? FUCK YOU! Other''s did it too AND MORE!!!!\ \ Republicans are only in it for themselves.\ \ Given both parties'' track records I''d choose The Democratic Party over the Republican Party any day.

• I vote Obama sex tape 2012.

• I will vote for whomever I choose, Obots.\ \ So MYOB, just a thought.

  "Sociopath"

• r43, you have never voted in your life. Who are you kidding.

• Yes, I am, R17. Don''t think you''re cleverly tripping me up; I knew exactly what I was writing. Black people had to vet Obama on a variety of levels before we threw him our support. I''m sure women who supported Hillary had to make the same decision to support their imperfect candidate. \ \ We knew he wasn''t a perfect candidate; it is the majority culture that keeps claiming we hero-worship the man. You saw a small but vocal and visible type of low-information voter who thought Obama would magically make them millionaires; then extrapolated that to the rest of us.\ \ We know and acknowledge Obama''s shortcomings, but tend not to slam our own viciously and publicly. We know the alternative is two orders of magnitude worse.

  R13

• The yellow person on this thread reminds me of Lindy.

• Obama is a spineless jellyfish.

• Black people didn''t just jump on the Obama train. In fact, many black people supported Hillary via Bill Clinton. That''s just the way it was. Obama connected with young voters before he got black voters on board.

• So now we know that r43/r47 changes IP addresses when he posts - R30, R32, R4, R6, R12, R16, R18, R22...\ \ Fairly safe to assume now that he is all over these threads, trying to project different personae.\ \ Freeper plant - I mean "libtard" kind of gives it away, no, Ms. Coulter?\ \ What a pathetic little thing you are.

• Everyone was lukewarm about Obama before the financial meltdown began in late September. That''s what gave him momentum -- not his "charisma" or his "intelligence."

• You Obots will be munching sour grapes next November.\ \ Enjoy!

• [quote] munching sour grapes\ \ It really is in bad form to discuss your mother''s balls in public.

• [quote]The yellow person on this thread reminds me of Lindy.\ \ RACIST!

• We have to support Obama against Romney, but we would rather support Kucinich against Romney.%0D

• [quote]I just don''t understand how people could even think about defending the Republican Party.\ \ those who value money above all else will inevitably defends those cunts.

• Bernie Saunders would be better still. We need a real hard left traditionalist, not one of these dumbass free market liberals who don''t know their ass from their elbow.%0D

• [quote] dumbass ............ who don''t know their ass from their elbow.\ \ Good for you, r56. Self assessment is always a good place to start.

• There''s not the slightest doubt that Obama will fight for marriage equality for gays.

• [quote]real hard left traditionalist\ \ Senator Sanders describes himself as a democratic socialist.\ \ Toss around words like "socialist" and your chances for elected office outside of Vermont fall precipitously.

Do you think we have EVER had a Presidential candidate who spoke exactly to all our needs? %0D\ %0D\ [quote]Don''t think you''re cleverly tripping me up; I knew exactly what I was writing.%0D\ %0D\ So R13/R45, you''re seriously saying that black people think Obama is "evil"????%0D\ %0D\ I''m not buying it.

• A vote for Romney or Perry is a vote for Michelle Bachmann.%0D\ %0D\ The tea party has boxed the GOP in...

• Yes

• I%E2%80%99m not thrilled with Obama, but I can%E2%80%99t understand how someone could vote for Republicans who state that gay people are bad, wrong, immoral, etc. Any rights that have been won, will be lost. Any rights that you hoped for would be gone.\ \ These people don%E2%80%99t think that gays should marry, have children, have certain jobs...\ \ I don%E2%80%99t get it.

• Yeah, Republican''s believe there''s equal and there''s equal equal and while gays might be equal to other people they are not equal equal to them.

  All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others

• WTF? With the economy of the entire fucking GLOBE about to tank, and this is what they''re worrying about?

• [quote]Obama bellowed that "GOD IS IN THE MIX!!!!" when justifying his opposition to same-sex marriage.%0D\ %0D\ %0D\ That sounds like his attitude is a bit too churchy. Marriage was around long before organized religion stuck its nose into the mix.

• We''re planning a lunchtime meeting to discuss this. Can you attend?

• R60, are you Amelia Bedelia, or are you being deliberately obtuse? \ \ [quote]We have to support Obama against Romney, but we would rather support Kucinich against Romney.\ \ For all the people who''ve screamed until hoarse about Obama''s lack of accomplishments in his career pre-2008, WTF has Dennis Kucinich EVER accomplished in 30+ years of political life? Oh, I know:\ \ He ran Cleveland into the ground (and had to have sniper teams protecting him when he went to Indians baseball games).\ \ He has his name on no important legislation I''m aware of.\ \ Now, when he''s being redistricted out of office, is looking to carpetbag it to Seattle and take some other Democrat''s seat.\ \ And I say this as a former DK supporter from the 70s-early 00s.

• I am so sick of being a whipping boy bogeyman for these hillbilly, snake handling bigots. This is an obvious retread of using the gays to get the stupid fundies out to vote, against THEIR own interests as well.

• Arguing with freepers is useless.\ \ I don''t why you all continue to try.

• R67''s link is NSFW, but interesting.

• This thread may win the prize as the weirdest and saddest DL thread ever.

• Watch MSNBC now.

• Romney -- what a wanker. Is there ANYTHING he won''t say or do in order to get elected?

• With the economy tanking, the rethugs have to vilify gays in order to distract all the mouthbreathing Americans from noticing that they''ve sold us down the river to billionaires and corporations.

• every cult needs a scapegoat. tea baggers are just a cult.

• Rom-nom-nom-nom-nom-ney....

• Anyone but Odumbo!

• Have you seen what Rumbun said today? lol\ \ Yeah, he''ll make a wonderful leader.
