OBAMA WON'T FIGHT FOR GAY MARRIAGE HIS SECOND TERM

[JB]

9 States with Legal Gay Marriage and 38 States with Same-Sex Marriage Bans .....

Don't be ridiculous Zeus. When the voting doesn't go Dems way they don't have to respect it.

It's more valuable for democrats to hold to this as a wedge issue for as long as they can rather than do something about it.

That shouldn't be necessary, abortion has been legal since the 70s but they still run on we are going to take it away every election.

Which means 39 chances for judicial fiat.

“For us to try to legislate federally into this area is probably the wrong way to go.”

Funny how this didn't apply to Obamacare.

Obama only made a big show of his "conversion" on the issue - complete with fake leaking of his epiphany by the Vice-President - to shore up another narrow interest bloc in his base. Mission accomplished, issue dropped.

Exactly. But watching Nova justify Obama's abandonment of a critical constituency is most entertaining, and we have to get our yucks where we can.

Obama not the first Politician to pander to a certain group for votes. He is rather crass and brazen about abandonment once he has was he needs though.
