Gay marriage in the US

Obama is simply sucking up to a very large gay votinc community. Personally, I don't give a hoot who is gay or not, but as a former US armed forces member for 15 years, I would have never volunteered for the service because I would have never felt comfortable living in such close quarters with men who whould be "checking me out" when I was in the shower. As for gay marriage, though I think I am a liberal of sorts; I am against it. Two women/men hooking up is just not "normal". If gay marriage is approved, why not 50 y.o's marrying 10 y.o's, or marrying farm animals. Where will it stop!

Confused,

I believe the President is confused,why all this,because he want a re election,anyway he has two daughters,let him start from them so that others will emulate,it is as simple as that,Antichrist on the move.

It's the economy stupid and this was not leadership. Where has he been for the last 3 years. He wasn't leading he was dragged into this issue trying to avoid it as much as possible.
