      <![CDATA[First of all, as a bitter woman on the verge of divorce from my partner of 17 years (married 2), and realizing that 50% of ALL marriages end in divorce, what are we fighting for? This is the wrong fight. We should be fighting for respect for all relationships and to abolish marriage and therefore divorce. It's the State oversight of personal life that's problematic. The only folks who make out are lawyers. Politicians are politicians. It is a given. And Bill lied about his own crap; he wasn't like Bush and Cheney. AND he was intelligent. Definitely unlike W. Obama is even smarter than Bill and inherited hell on earth. And he's still a politician. Gay marriage is the least of his problems. It's the least of ours. I'm a little more worried about the economy, unemployment, health care, education, the wars, global warming........

      <![CDATA[Although, this is hot on the heels of the DNC flop of a political fundraiser on June 25th. One has to wonder the if the impact of shutting down the GayTM is directly related to these sudden changes in position.<br />
The Clintons do not make any moves that are not very well thoughtout, plotted, polled and planned. They're a calculating duo.  Maybe he is trying to redeem his legacy to not be forever known as the president who signed DOMA.  Maybe he's trying to show the balls and leadership he should've shown back then but was talked out of by his advisory team, the same people btw who are now advising Obama. Or, maybe he's just putting the screws to Obama for beating his wife in the primary.  Who knows.

      <![CDATA[Yeah, he's not going out on a limb -- but that's exactly the point.  Equal marriage has advanced to the point that a weathervane like Clinton can support it, even if it's grudging and years overdue.  He's the biggest mainstream politician to come out in support of SSM, which is a huge help to risk-averse Democrats trying to dig up their courage.

Oh, they like Obama better in the primaries so let's be the saviors of the trailor park! Working WHITE PEOPLE!  Religious nuts? Oh, they are turning elections around so let's advertize how I, Clinton signed DOMA and fought scary gay marriage in the South! Gays unhappy with Obama? Oh, yeah Bill looooves the gays and got a BJ in the White House don't you know!<br />

Under Bush, gay marriage was not legal.<br>

If we assume gay marriage is the ONLY ISSUE THAT MATTERS, the we can assume the presidencies of Clinton and Bush were the same.

      <![CDATA[@7: Clinton made overtures to the GLBT community repeatedly and then changed horses mid-stream at the end of his first term. Then he campaigned on that new pony.<br />
<br />
Obama is looking bland and unremarkable by comparison. Maybe he'll have to enact a FMA to outdo Clinton.<br />
<br />
Clinton, now there's a man who could get a job done.

      <![CDATA[Don't be so ignorantly disgusting, you guys.<br />
<br />
No difference between Clinton and Bush save for some deaths? ARE YOU SRS? <br />
<br />
That in and of itself is telling. However, how much did Clinton attempt to expand his powers? <br />
<br />
Have you forgotten about the $122,700,000,000 surplus we had in 2000? That's <b>122 BILLION</b><br />
<br />
And Bush?<br />
<br />
482 billion in <b>deficit</b><br />
<br />
You haters are so angry and skewed.<br />

      <![CDATA[Yeah it would have been nice if he had said this 15 years ago, but I think we should be rather welcoming of people who change their positions, whether public or private, and for whatever motive.  <br />
<br />
Either we can wait for lots of people to die or we can change peoples minds. Doing that through requires forgiving people who were on the wrong side and letting people come to the right side slowly.

      <![CDATA[Right what a douche bag for not committing to marriage equality until now!  God damn that Balldawg!  How dare he not commit to marriage equality back in 1996!  What a moron.  <br />
<br />
Why's he sooooo late, huh?  He should have done it ten-'leben years earlier.<br />
<br />
Fucking asshole.<br />
<br />
However, President Obama who's still not for marriage equality is okey-dokey!  LEt's go kiss his ass some more as he continues to break campaign promises about DADT.<br />
<br />
Bill Clinton: told you he was for DOMA, campaigned on it, and kept his word.<br />
<br />
Obama: told you he would change Obama, campaigned on it, and broke his word.<br />
<br />
God damn that Billdawg!  Aaaaargggg@!!@  You just can't trust him!  What a typical slithering politician!!!<br />
