(Link to full story at bottom). It's very simple: If you're an American who supports gays being allowed to legally marry just like heterosexuals, then your first place of protest should be the White House, since it's currently inhabited by an individual named Barack, who -- as a very inconvenient truth -- is very clearly on record as opposing gay marriage.But of course, in the loony world of American leftist 20 percenters, it's perfectly OK to go against any tenet of the typical leftist agenda so long as the person doing it is a leftist himself (e.g., being anti-gay marriage, supporting regime-changing military involvements abroad, executing enemy figures (Bin Laden) without a trial, etc., etc.). But otherwise, if you're not one of them and you advocate one of those things, then Katy Bar the Damn Door!!! Time to hit the streets to protest, baby!!!
As a result, on gay issues, we get a steady stream of the leftist 20 percenters raising all holy hell about such people as beauty pageant contestants (Carrie Prejean), has-been TV actors (Kirk Cameron), and now Russian political slimeballs (Vladimir Putin) when they oppose gay marriage or other gay rights positions. But Obama? He gets a pass. Because he's one of them.
I don't know about you, but I couldn't go through life being an absolute hypocrite all the time. It's an intellectually empty, hollow, dishonest and disingenuous way of being. I often wonder how they (and the right-wingers for that matter) do it. But if I knew the answer to that, I guess I'd have to be one of them. Think I'll pass.
