Is Everybody Aware That Rush Limbaugh and Obama Have the Exact Same Opinion on Gay Marriage?

I’m just asking because I know that if I polled average people as I walked down the street, NO ONE would answer this question correctly.

Here’s an excerpt from the new book about Rush Limbaugh called “An Army of One” which offers some details that might surprise you…

“Atypically, Limbaugh didn’t say a word on the air about Sykes’ routine, or the fact that the president of the United States had smiled broadly, in front of the entire country, about the prospect of his death. He was disconcerted, though, and he was right to be. He was in first place on the enemies list of the president of the United States.”

Limbaugh is also in favor of homosexual civil unions, according to Chafets.

“He regards homosexuality as, most probably, biologically determined, and while he opposes gay marriage as culturally subversive, he has no problem with gay civil unions – which is the stance of President Obama and Hillary Clinton,” the author explains.

In related news, DADT repeal seems well under way.

To give credit where it’s due, the British have allowed gay people to serve openly in the military since Monty Python…

“In some respects this is worse than Bush.”

It’s not actually worse than Bush, it’s just a bunch of ignorant jerks who have finally figured out the real meaning of change same…

NEW YORK — US actors and liberal intellectuals joined a list to be published Friday of nearly 2,000 people accusing President Barack Obama of allowing human rights violations and war crimes.

“Crimes are crimes, no matter who does them,” the statement reads over pictures of Obama and his predecessor George W. Bush due to appear in the New York Review of Books.

The statement, published as a paid advertisement, accuses Obama, who was elected in 2008 with the enthusiastic support of US liberals, of continuing Bush’s controversial approach to human rights in Iraq and Afghanistan, and in domestic security.

It takes aim especially at Obama’s decision — reported by US officials — to authorize the killing of a radical Islamic cleric and US citizen Anwar al-Awlaki, who is accused of ties to Al-Qaeda in Yemen.

“In some respects this is worse than Bush,” the statement says. “First, because Obama has claimed the right to assassinate American citizens whom he suspects of ‘terrorism,’ merely on the grounds of his own suspicion or that of the CIA, something Bush never claimed publicly.”

Of course, those aren’t the only gripes from these geniuses…

They also lambast Obama for having refused “to prosecute any members of the Bush regime who are responsible for war crimes, including some who admitted to waterboarding and other forms of torture, thereby making their actions acceptable for him.”

Haven’t these high IQ types heard that using the word “regime” is off limits? I thought they were the the only ones who watched MSNBC.

I guess they’re just a little slower than we thought. Wait til they finally figure out that Obama, unlike many leading conservatives, is opposed to gay marriage.

HT to ZIP.

First Lady Laura Bush the Latest Conservative to Voice Support for Gay Marriage

HT to Instapundit.

From GOProud:

“We want to thank Former First Lady Laura Bush for her courageous support for marriage equality for gay and lesbian couples. Laura Bush now joins prominent conservatives such as former Vice President Dick Cheney in support of same-sex marriage.

“It will be impossible for the gay community to achieve equality of opportunity without the support of conservative voices like Laura Bush. I further hope my friends on the left note that now we have members of the Bush, Cheney and McCain families in support of marriage, but no Obamas or Bidens.”

Conservatives who have voiced support for gay marriage:

First Lady Laura Bush

Vice President Dick Cheney

Cindy McCain

Moe Lane of Red State

Roger Simon of Pajamas Media

ALSO: The nation’s most prominent military bloggers, most of them conservative, have now advocated a change to the military’s DADT policy.

Andrew Sullivan is Irrelevant to American Politics

Andrew Sullivan Mug ShotAmerican pundits, bloggers and politicians give way too much credit to Andrew Sullivan. He is irrelevant to American politics.

Andrew Sullivan is not a United States citizen.

He can’t vote in our elections.

He can’t legally cast a vote for his local dog catcher in Washington, DC.

Back in the early 2000′s, Sullivan made a name for himself as a blogger and supported George W. Bush. He portrayed himself as a “gay Catholic conservative.” His fame quickly rose with his blog stats.

Sometime in 2007 or 2008, Sullivan became an Obama supporter, presumably because he thought (wrongly) that President Obama would legally sanction his marriage to Mr. Aaron Tone, an American citizen, which would automatically make Sullivan an American citizen.

For the record, I’m a conservative libertarian who supports gay marriage. I believe in the right of free adult American citizens to marry whomever they choose. It’s none of the federal government’s business.

However…

Andrew Sullivan clearly cares more about his own self interests than he does about the United States of America. Therefore, I don’t care about him.

Until Andrew Sullivan is a United States citizen, he has no business claiming any authority in American politics.

Until Andrew Sullivan can vote in our elections he has no business insinuating himself in American policy.

Until Andrew Sullivan is an American, I don’t care what he thinks. He’s irrelevant.

If he disagrees with me I hope he’ll let me know when I, as an American citizen, can cast a vote for the next king or queen of England.

Until then, I wish he’d just shut up.

VIDEO: Obama on Gay Marriage Then and Now

"The answer my friend, is blowin' in the wind. The answer is blowin' in the wind..."

Obama was against gay marriage before he was for it. Or against it. Or for it. Or against it.

Frankly, it’s hard to keep track of his position.

Vice President Dick Cheney is for it. Moe Lane of RedState.com is for it. I’m for it.

What’s Obama’s position?

“The answer my friend, is blowin’ in the wind. The answer is blowin’ in the wind…”

Noted Leftist Says Libertarians and Conservatives “Want Obama to Get Killed”

Maybe Dan Savage should spend a few minutes reading American history rather than trying to re-write it.

Dan Savage is the editor of the alternative Seattle newspaper “The Stranger.” He is gay and he has been rightly critical of Obama’s lack of support for gay marriage.

However, in the following clip, as a guest on the Keith Olbermann show, he goes over the top. He claims that Republicans want Obama to get killed. This is outrageous on so many levels. Leave out the fact that Glenn Beck is a Libertarian, NOT a Republican. At least get your facts “straight” Dan. Furthermore, Conservatives Rush Limbaugh and Michelle Bachman have never called for violence against President Obama.

Conservatives respect and revere the office of the President, even if they disagree with the policies of the man who holds the office. There has NEVER been a case of a President of the United States killed by a Conservative.

In fact, EVERY single assault on the President of the United States has been perpetrated by a radical LEFTIST from John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald.

Maybe Dan Savage should spend a few minutes reading American history rather than trying to re-write it.

EXIT QUESTION: Who is it on the right who is trying to enforce religious views on anyone? Note to Dan Savage: The “Moral Majority” ended in the 1980′s.

The only person I know who is appealing to religious communities is OBAMA! It is Obama who is reaching out to religious leaders in an attempt to push his own agenda.

If Dan Savage has such a problem with politicians using religion to push personal politics, he might want to start with the President for whom he’s so desperately concerned.

Leftist Astroturfer Who Trashed Denver Dem Office is Confirmed Democrat Worker and a Transgendered Man

Some of us who are Conservative Libertarians, who might actually support your cause, are beginning to doubt your true intentions. We wonder if what you really want has more to do with the smearing of Conservatives than it does with gay marriage.

Maurice SchwenklerCould this story get any stranger?

Last night I wrote about Maurice Schwenkler who vandalized a Democrat office in Colorado to make it look like the crime was committed by Conservative ObamaCare opponents.

Tonight we have learned that not only is Schwenkler definitely a “progressive activist” but that he is also a transgendered man, i.e. a person who is physically female but lives as a male. Not that there’s anything wrong with that…

DENVER — The suspect arrested Tuesday morning on charges of smashing 11 windows at the state Democratic Party headquarters is a transgendered “Denver-based anarchist” who goes by the name “Ariel Attack,” according to postings on radical gay-rights websites. A fundraising plea circulated by the self-described “radical queer group” Denver Bash Back! seeks donations to raise the $5,000 bail set for 24-year-old Maurice Schwenkler, who is “listed in the jail records and media under her birth name.”

I couldn’t possibly care less about Maurice’s sexuality, to each his/her own. I am troubled by the radical anarchism, though. And hey, what’s up with giving Shakespeare’s “Ariel” a bad name, huh?

As usual, Michelle Malkin and Gateway Pundit are on the case and way ahead of the American Pravda…

Michelle cites a report which shows “Maurice” has a prior record, perhaps through participation in the terrorist group called the RNC Welcoming Committee.

“On the last day of the 2008 Republican National Convention, he was charged with misdemeanor unlawful assembly in St. Paul, Minn. Court records provided through the St. Paul Pioneer Press show he was jailed about 2 a.m.”

Gateway Pundit confirms:

“The young vandal who smashed windows at the DNC headquarters in Denver on Tuesday worked for a democratic politician, was paid by a SEIU-related front group, and was arrested at the RNC convention last year in St. Paul.”

Video:

Here’s an idea for Maurice/Ariel…

If you’re so concerned about LGBT rights, why don’t you try protesting the fucking PRESIDENT???

You know, Barack Obama? The candidate the gay community rallied around?

The guy who now runs the country and clearly has no interest in gay marriage rights?

Some of us who are Conservative Libertarians, who might actually support your cause, are beginning to doubt your true intentions. We wonder if what you really want has more to do with the smearing of Conservatives than it does with gay marriage.

Between idiots like “Maurice” and Perez Hilton, you’re really not helping your cause.

Obama Throws Table Scraps to America’s Gay Community

Some conservatives oppose gay marriage, some don't. The same could be said about the other side of the political spectrum. Obviously, not all Democrats support gay marriage. Including President Obama.

As a Libertarian, I support gay marriage. I don’t think the government has the right to tell free American citizens who they can and can’t marry. That being said, I fail to understand why America’s gay community thinks thought Obama would deliver on anything.

Even though he has said he opposes gay marriage, everyone in his camp seems to think he’s speaking in code and secretly supports it. He doesn’t.

I find it funny that as soon as The Advocate, a leading gay interest magazine, featured Obama on the cover with the word “NOPE?” emblazoned beneath his face, we see the following report from the Associated Press, right on cue.

Obama Administration Says Marriage Law Unfair

“WASHINGTON — The Obama administration filed court papers Monday claiming a federal marriage law discriminates against gays, even as government lawyers continue to defend the law.”

“Justice Department lawyers are seeking to dismiss a suit brought by a gay California couple challenging the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act. The administration’s response to the case has angered gay activists who see it as backtracking on campaign promises made by Barack Obama.”

Would a McCain Administration have been better on gay rights? We’ll never know. One thing we do know is that so far, Obama is no better for America’s gay community than George W. Bush.

Every time an organization like The Advocate makes a major criticism of Obama you’ll see some small report about Obama “fighting” for American gay people but it’s nothing more than spin to make sure liberals continue to toe the party line.

It’s table scraps, nothing more.

And for any gay people who think it’s impossible to be gay and conservative, I highly suggest you start reading a great blog called Gay Patriot.

Contrary to what you’ve been told, conservatives do not hate gay people, nor do Libertarians. We love freedom. That includes your freedom to be who you are.

Some conservatives oppose gay marriage, some don’t. The same could be said about the other side of the political spectrum. Obviously, not all Democrats support gay marriage, including President Obama.
