Obama Opposes Ban on Gay Marriage
Sen. Barack Obama today wrote a letter to stating he oppposed a ban on gay marriage.
In a letter to San Francisco's Alice B. Toklas Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Democratic Club, the presumptive presidential nominee said he opposed "the divisive and discriminatory efforts to amend the California Constitution" and similar efforts in other states.
Good on Obama. He's not afraid to change his mind.
Obama is skating gingerly past his previous position on the issue.
The Illinois senator has said repeatedly that he believes marriage should be only between man and a woman. When the California Supreme Court overturned the state's ban on same-sex marriage in May, Obama released a carefully nuanced statement saying he respected the court's decision, believed states should make their own decisions on marriage and "will continue to fight for civil unions as president."
We're behind Obama on this one, all the way.

So, You Can't Attack The Message...
...So you attack me. Par for the course for a hypocritical neo con ass muncher such as yourself. I don't know anything about any drag shows in Cleveland, but apparently YOU do! HA!
What kind of name is Othello, you ask? It's the kind of name the guy that fucks your wife and daughter while you're at work uses, shit head!
You're not very clever, bbBrain, as your slavish emulation of Rush has proven. You should quit while you're ahead. You might get your feelings hurt, thin skinned boy.
