The only reason Obama is supporting the gay community is for more votes #DesperateActs

I’m not a big softball guy but this video is well done.
Cool interview Trey Whaley…
Want to know how to become a “softball guy”? Have a daughter. Suddenly I find myself watching softball on ESPN 2 and critiquing the pitching form….
Big fan of Jeremiah now
It’d be terrible to give those gays equal rights. Just a shame that in America the President would try to stand up for the rights of its citizens.
Haha Bob doesn’t get it.
Keep jumping to conclusions, buddy.
Then why don’t you explain it?
Thats not what the comment was addressing… Morally, it is a great thing, but I think like Jeremiah, I believe it is a desperate act by him to get more votes. So quit crying bob.. And dont worry about it schultzy.
I’m sure that factored in, but it still needed to be done.
Tyler nailed it. It has nothing to do with equal rights- no sane person is going to argue against that. Its about seeing through Obama’s BS.
‘no sane person is going to argue against that.” Do you read the news?
You guys are right, addressing one the nation’s largest social issues is nothing more than a political stunt. By your logic, every time Romney speaks against gay marriage, he’s just pandering for votes too.
No, they’re right. Extending basic humans rights to everyone is just wrong unless the motivations behind it are absolutely pure. It’s the same reason slavery should never have ended and voting should have remained with land-owning, white males. All just pathetic pandering.
I bet you also believe proper healthcare shouldn’t bankrupt people and it should be like it is in the dozens of other countries with better health systems. Don’t even tell me you think it might be bad that the overwhelming majority of a country’s wealth is in the possession of an elite few. Next thing you’ll say is that a military budget greater than all the rest of the world, combined, spends is silly.
Pssh… liberal, pansy OWSer.
Liberal pansy agenda at its finest! LOL
Bottom line, Obama used this whole thing as a political stunt – to gain votes and distract away from the real issues. He couldn’t care less about gay rights.
I feel sorry for anyone that can’t see through all of Obama’s BS. Are you a OWSer, Bob? Haha
Gay people don’t deserve rights! Being gay is a sin.
Haha again… I feel sorry for people that can’t read between the lines. Go ahead and keep blabbering about human rights. I’m all for equal rights; never said I wasn’t.
I just hope you liberal idiots are Oklahoma voters, because your presidential vote effectively doesn’t count. LOL
Funny you accuse everyone of being liberal. I’m very centric. You act like it’s a foreign concept for a politician to make a political statement in hopes of getting votes. You could literally make the same statement (regarding pandering for votes) for every politician running for office. Use that gray matter between your ears; every politician is mostly worthless and cares about nothing other than being elected.
Crap, I thought this was an OSU blog. I must have accidentally typed foxnews.com in my browser or something. Now I’m beginning to wonder if the mushrooms I bought from the long-haired fellow with the stinky cigarette were really mushrooms…
