The Golden Rule does NOT mean “you do what you want and I’ll do what I want”.
Pres. Obama MUST be voted out of office.

Thanks for posting Father Z's article.
And I agree with him, BO must be voted out of office!!
I have the feeling, that this was all planned....It was not Joe Biden's mistake....to slip up...
It was planned, and its all about money as usual....
God help us!

Re: Obama declares support for same-sex marriage
So Obama has evolved to the point he has the same position on gay marriage as Dick Chaney? To bad he doesn't hold some of Chaney's other positions.

Perhaps he will simply see it as meaning--not that he can be "bought" as I think you may be implying--but that the majority of Americans do indeed support same-sex marriage. That's the logical conclusion most would come to.

I don't think that's the case at all.

Most who do are pawns of the homosexualists.

I wouldn't regard that as shocking. I'd regard it as a fairly desperate calculation. They might well figure they're in real trouble and that the most liberal of the Democrats are going to stay home, so he's making sure the hard left is going to come back to the polls.
No, not a surprise, a gamble.

Re: Obama declares support for same-sex marriage
Most ignorant and cafeteria Catholics won't have a problem with this issue. I am praying for all dissenters in the Church either change or leave the Church. Get out if you do not believe what is taught and refuse to change. Run to the Episcopal church.

Don’t think so. Reality he is failing in the polls and needs a strange coalition to get reelected. It includes the chattering elite, the credentialed class (those with a BS in angry chick, any angry minority studies), and the usual suspects that end up working in government jobs i.e. teachers and college kids. Most of all he needs gay money as he isn’t raking it in like he thought he could.
Majority of Americans don’t want same sex abominations sanctioned as marriage. In 32 out of 32 referendums it has failed even in California. Even as blacks came out and voted for Obama they passed prop 8.
So why now come out of the closet? He isn’t getting homosexual money, the college kids are not lining up to support him. He needs to distract the voters from his record so he wants a social issue campaign to run on. His calculus has him still holding onto minority voters regardless of their being insulted by well upper class homosexuals claiming discrimination and demanding to be a protected class so he chances little to attract the campus votes.

He spoke of the "don't ask, don't tell" policy, and protecting the rights of homosexuals, but I don't see even a hint about marriage.

The Log Cabin Club is composed of homosexual conservative Republicans.

Why the Episcopal Church? And, if so, to what branch of it? Better to have said, "run to another church."

Romney was quoted recently (I saw the clip) as being opposed both to SSM and to civil unions.
