@1 And vaginas. Don't forget about Vaginas!
This man is much more pro-vagina than Mitt Romney ever could've been.

Yea!!!!
We have a president who is good for genitals!!
What does it matter that he has managed to lie, backpedal, and murder children with drone strikes? Who cares he bails out Wall Street while screwing the rest of us? Who cares that he prints money like crazy further devaluing the little money that we peasants still have.
Cause he is pro orifice!!!
Apparently, aside from Sullivan, the only thing faggots care about is fucking. Way to be a stereotype!!!

About time. At the absolute least, the federal government should recognize marriages conducted in states in which it is legal. The conservative "states rights!" politicians can hardly complain about that.

dude prez rocks. i feel bad he has to deal with this dis-functionality in congress everyday, he was dealt a bunch of mess from the previous gop administration. remember prez, we have to conserve our nations energy, listen to jimmy carter ok. more LED lights on the roads and stuff like that. more fiber optics too. that shit is cheap.

@4: States have always made their own rules about marriage (except for DOMA). When the federal gov't has gotten involved, it's been the Supreme Court giving couples more freedom and less interference from the state (Loving v Virgina).
We can argue about how late to the game Obama's been about DADT and DOMA, but it's not the president's job to make rules about how states allow couples to marry.

Clashfan, keep telling yourself that if you need to in order to justify supporting such a pathetic excuse for a leader.

@5: Ignorant straight people (and self-hating closet cases) are the ones who care about the fucking. The rest of us care about the LIFE that includes the fucking. More specifically, the FREEDOM of that life that includes the fucking. You see the difference? Now go get fucked.

So I guess, Dan, "Thank God this man got reelected" officially retracts the "Fuck You" you "Confidentially" hurled at the White House on October 11, 2010?

@Andy Niable (12):
I don't think he retracts it-- the Obama administration then went on to do everything he asked there. They would have roundly deserved the "fuck you" if they had not done so, and kept claiming to be GLBT allies.
But since then, they've actually proven themselves to be good allies. So that "fuck you" (along with many, many others, some phrased differently) seems like it did exactly what it was meant to do.
Yay!

Commenter #1 - if you believe that marriage is all about what orifice one sticks his penis into, I feel very sorry for your spouse.

@ 5 yep "yea!!!!" Obama did the right thing on Gay rights.
Yes the drone strikes are disturbing and wrong. That said if you'd listened to his STOTU address you'd know he did several things, 1) acknowledged (granted a bit vaguely) that he is doing them. 2) acknowledged that there needs to be better oversight and 3) begged Congresses to make him stop by passing legislation (laws) to make "him" in effect any President stop. Something Bush never did while torturing people in our name.
Bush bailed out Wall street and the banks, Obama merely implemented the legislation Bush pushed through Congress. Do try and keep up. Obama saved the auto industry.
Obama has not ordered the Treasury to print more money, that was Nixon response along with wage and price controls. Again, do try and keep up.
I have no idea whether Obama is pro-orifice or not. I'll take your word on it that he is and I'm good with that.
I have no idea which of the many folks with the last name Sullivan to which you are referring. So I'll assume it is the gay pundit Andrew Sullivan. I think I am safe in asserting that Andrew Sullivan is down with fucking, sodomy too for that matter.

When God judges the people ascribing to homosexuality, i have to admit, i'd like to be a fly on the wall. this Savage guy is a subhuman piece of ***. Since when is any type of sex supposed to be engaged in with such casualness and recreational approach? It's no surprise that our "president" endorses this crap and the blah blah IT gets better capaign. It really gets worse. Immorality is such the condition of our day and unless all you people become remorseful for such perversion, you will bring judgement on yourselves as well as most of America. sex is not meant to be engaged in arbritrarily and for recreation. That's why you get disease. DUH!! Is that resonating to you morons? Ya know how you know for a fact that being gay is such a lie. It's a perversion same as incest and pedophilia. Has been since time began and always will be. No campaign, though masterfully marketed and sold will ever really make it valid. Man can enact any laws he wants to cover it up but the anatomy always "outs" the truth. Just ask yourself one question. Is the anus a genital or sex organ. That's all you need to know the truth.

Poor disconnected Pablo (17). You can get diseases from food so by your logic eating a sin. You get diseases from water so hydrating is a sin. You get diseases by breathing so respiration is a sin. Do these pseudo-religious hatebags ever think through their arguments before spewing out for all to see how disjointed they are? And Pablo, you could really benefit from a little knowledge of human anatomy. There is more there than meets the eye.

Not sure exactly how I feel about President Obama but I love Michelle Obama, she makes me smile! Best First Lady EVAH!

Politicians are like dogs. You have to praise them when they're good and correct them sharply when they shit the rug. Doing both at the same time will only confuse them and they won't learn anything.
POTUS is correct on this topic so should be praised.
We can hit him on the nose with a newspaper again tomorrow for the human-rights abuses and other leadership failures.

"We are all created equal applies to everybody."
And if you're from Wall Street, some people are even more equal than others.
