A smart cookie no doubt. Once a charming player, always a player. But who is really being played!

Seriously?
you dont have all your facts right.

in 2012, Obama came out personally for the right of gay people to marry. He has not come out against DOMA. And he stated it was something the states needed to figure out.

LOL. Obama in 2012 found a way to be both for and against Gay Marriage.

However, you do have the other facts right. He was for Gay Marriage in 1996 and in 1998 when Shepard was murdered, then after that he became against it. now somehow Shepard who was freshly dead when he went from support to opposition, has magically swayed him.

sorry this isnt a thread about Romney. this is a story about the sitting president who as president is telling us things that just dont pass the smell test.


you are free to talk about Romeny all day long... even here... but we arent going to bite. Obama is the issue. Obama is the problem.

Obama is a typical politician.

Which ever direction the wind blows is what they'll stump for.

It's called pandering. And people should stop voting for politicians with no backbone.

I lying lip flapper who believes his base is utterly stupid. In all fairness, his base actually is utterly stupid. But that doesn't mean he should take advantage of their ignorance with such shamelessness.
