Obama's "pieces of paper", which a previous person here has stated should prove critical thinking skills being from a reputable establishment of higher learning have been proven otherwise on any number of occasions. One would think that LYING is counterproductive, and adverse to critical thinking skills, yet he has done so, over and over, and now, he proves yet again, those skills are absent, in sending Several openly homosexual people to Russia.

In all actuality, he has put the Russian leader in a position of power over our delegates, and technically, that leader could refuse entry of our delegates under Russian law. That would put Obama where?
Obama has done NO wrong here. I, as a gay man, would be as LOUD as I could if I was one of those delegates sent to the Olympics. Obama, and America is behind all those fighting for the right to exist.

I don't expect you bigots to comprehend human rights. But you do HAVE TO ACCEPT THEM! Gay people are on every corner of this world. We have been here forever and we will FOREVER be here! Get used it it!

You obviously feel very passionately about this issue.

You're assuming that said delegate will even be discussing gay rights during their visit to Russia.

Maybe, just maybe, said delegate will do what they've been hired to do and that's to oversee the Olympics and do the duty their roles call for them to do?

A stretch, I know!

I sincerely hope you're right. That will save both countries a lot of embarrassment and maybe worse.

Yes, this will be the defining moment of his presidency. It's right up there with Reagan's "tear down this wall" and Washington crossing the Delaware river.

If Obama sent you as a delegate and you were LOUD as you could be about gay rights, you should rightly be arrested and put on a plane out of Russia or thrown into jail.

To that, I say thank you Obama!
Then why did he go to court to fight the removal of DADT, and then only repealing it after a judge ordered it done?

Tell me why does him being gay matter to you? The only people I hear talking about people being gay, are those who run around telling people that what they do in their bedroom doesnt matter, but it sure seems to matter, provided of course their screwing the right sex..

Which in turn makes him being gay, a useless fact to know and thus the only people making an issue out of what he's doing in his bedrooms, are those who are very vocal that no one should be concerned about what they do in their bedrooms.

I understand that Obama has presided over the worst economy since the depression. From an economic standpoint things haven't been very peachy over the years.

But our president DOES stand up for the rights of minorities, whether they be sexual, religious, or racial. And he does so in the face of a world that opposes him on these issues.

To that, I say thank you Obama!
Have to find any crumb to pick up and shine in the aftermath of Obama's shovel ready jobs paving the road to hell. Pathetic nuance, I'm sure will get another nobel peace prize.

Might whisper to Obama that christians are being murdered wholesale throughout the middle east and in his world of protecting the innocent he took a dim view of killing people with poison gas but had no problem with innocent people dying by conventional means.

Yep, Obama is the protector of minorities.
