Here's the bottom line regarding Obama the back stabber [View All]

when it comes to caring about the future of gay people.

He will undoubtedly change his positions on civil unions, Don't Ask Don't Tell, just about EVERYTHING, if it's politically advantageous == if it will help him generate more votes.

If the fundies he panders to ask him to vote for a constitutional amendment on banning marriage because he owes them, I can see him throwing gay people under the bus to show his gratitude. No question about it.

Obama lovingly embraced a notorious homophobe despite heart felt pleas. This McClurkin homophobe is an extraordinarily dangerous individual because people who hate gays will argue, "Oh my gosh look! Even a gay person (McClurkin) concedes homosexuality is evil and can concedes it's a choice and can be cured. So why in the world should I support any basic gay right if it's a phony, evil lifestyle?

After all, McClurkin said it and Obama must believe it, otherwise why would he book him as part of his campaign? That's what people are thinking.

Sorry but Obama figuratively spit in the faces of gay people by completely ignoring pleas not to embrace McClurkin. He did what he felt like doing, and now he's going to have to pay the consequences.

Why should Obama be rewarded for this action in the form of a gay vote?

How can Obama be trusted when he's already stabbed the LGBT community in the back once?

Are you crazy?

Obama supporters cannot and/or will not explain why gay people shouldn't worry he'll cave on critical issues in the future if it's politically advantageous.

NOBODY WILL EXPLAIN WHY OBAMA CAN AND SHOULD BE TRUSTED. Why won't anybody specifically address this?

And please, Obama is hardly the best on "gay rights." --------->http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x3951604

By virtue of his arrogant actions concerning McClurkin, he is worse than Edwards, worse than Hillary and he's always been worse than Kucinich on gay issues.

And what an outrage to write "he has refused to pander." OMG, he is the king of panderers.

I mean, I can go on and on about that ridiculous OP which implies Obama the back stabber is a friend to the gay community.

He cannot be trusted. Period.

Fortunately, most of us learned this before we were tricked into voting for him.

Obama and his supporters have done zero to mend the hurt.

It doesn't sound like they want and care about our vote.

Kinda crazy if you ask me in this day and age of such close elections where every vote matters.
