Guest Post: Obama Embraces Gay Marriage
Submitted by John Azis of Azizonomics
Obama Embraces Gay Marriage
Unlike virtually every mainstream media commentator or political talking head I don’t care about Obama embracing gay marriage.
Now I know that a lot of people on the left — disappointed by his banker-friendly, PATRIOT Act-renewing, indefinite-detention-enabling, American-citizen-assassinating regime — are searching for any reason to vote for him, and plausible reason to defend his record. That’s the nature of tribal politics — “anti-war” Democrats will happily protest the Bush war machine, but they seem quiet when Obama is the one using drone strikes to assassinate American citizens without trial. I don’t like Mitt Romney either, but that’s not the point.
Even for those in favour of gay marriage, let’s not forget that Obama is capable of doing absolutely zero to change the law. Want to introduce a law allowing homosexual couples to marry? Good luck getting it through the Republican Congress.
I’m in favour of consenting adults being able to do whatever they like with each other, but the fact that the current push for gay marriage is supported by Lloyd Blankfein and Goldman Sachs makes me very suspicious (does he want to sell securitised gay marriage debt?).
It just seems like an easy issue for Obama to posture on, while trampling the Constitution into the dirt.
When it comes to civil liberties, Obama has always talked a good game, and then acted more authoritarian than Bush. He talked about an end to the abuses of the Bush years and an open and transparent government, yet extended the Fourth-Amendment-shredding Patriot Act, empowered the TSA to produce naked body scans and engage in humiliatingly sexual pat-downs, signed indefinite detention of American citizens into law, claimed and exercised the power to assassinate American citizens without trial, and aggressively prosecuted whistleblowers. Under his watch the U.S. army even produced a document planning for the reeducation of political activists in internment camps. Reeducation camps? In America? And some on the left are still crowing that talking about being in favour of gay marriage makes him “pro civil liberties”? Is this a joke?
Here are a few metrics that we should be judging Obama on:
People not in the labour force is spiking:
The public debt keeps soaring and soaring from eyeball-watering multi-trillion dollar deficits:
Meanwhile India, Iran, China, Russia, Saudi Arabia and Japan have all ditched the dollar for other currencies in new bilateral trade agreements — which lest us forget is America’s biggest export, and the product that keeps goods and oil flowing into America. This is an extremely dangerous time. While we cannot lump Obama with the blame for the entire U.S. economic system — the system we have was accumulated via Bush, and Cheney, and Paulson, and Clinton, and Bush, and Reagan, and Carter, and Brzezinski, and Nixon, and Kissinger, and Johnson, and Roosevelt and Wilson and Lincoln and probably most significantly of all the father of central banking Alexander Hamilton — Obama certainly has not improved matters.
And it should be obvious to anyone paying attention that Romney — who claims he would support the NDAA and the PATRIOT Act, that he wants to attack Iran, and has hired many ex-Bush staffers, as well as winning the endorsement of both Jeb and George H.W. Bush, and bizarrely claiming to want to start a trade war with China — is cut from the exact same cloth as Bush and Obama.
This is a dead election. Here’s hoping that Ron Paul — who continues to pick up delegates in the Republican race even while being ignored by the mainstream media who would rather talk about Obama’s posturing on gay rights — can cause some mayhem.

Sideshow. Main event is the economy.
Historically, morals and economy of a society are generally linked. As one goes, so goes the other.
Shit, I must have been a little behind on the news lately. Obummer embraces gay marriage with whom?
GODDAMMIT!! I'm SICK of this multiculturalist MUSLIM President ruining this great country. What happened to AMERICAN values? What happened to American TRADITION? The ONLY candidate that stands for freedom, decency and FREEDOM OF ASSOCIATION is RON PAUL.
Ron Paul wouldn't want government telling people who to marry either, troll.
RON PAUL is a CHRISTIAN, moron. But I guess that doesn't concern you and your fag multiculturalist friends.
There are a few posters here who are very excited by Obama's announcment. The rest of us don't give a flying fuck. Makes you wonder...
Born Patriot mocks himself. An agent provacetuer? Or just a dick who makes all of us look bad? Bring back the math captcha.
Your answer must be 3 characters long......Born Patriot seems a few characters short of an answer.
This post is curious to me. Aziz made a rather big deal about using the military to crush riots in the UK last year and now he is pro-civil liberties? I guess he means pro his and speicifically only HIS freedom. I like the article but the hypocrisy is rather breathtaking considering what he advocated across the pond.
The MSM has been spining this stupid homo headline for two days enough is enough how about this headline.
Meh a new Snorg Tee girl!
if you cant dazzle em with dynamic economics, baffle them with ideological bullshit
Bring the gold —
1/ I didn't really advocate it, but I did say that if it continued it could be kind of an inevitable response and that previous British PMs would have done it.
2/ When you start smashing stuff up from ordinary shops and homes (I live in the UK, I know the areas, these rioters weren't protesting banks or the government, they were just smashing up their neighbours' property and stealing things) then you are a common criminal and a thug and in my view you must be stopped from destroying other people's property.
3/ Because of 2/ that isn't really a civil liberties issue. You don't have the right to destroy other people's property — quite the opposite, you have a right to be secure in your person and property, which means that if you start destroying other people's stuff, you need to be stopped.
4/ If they had genuinely been anti-banking or anti-government protests it would have been very different. I still don't support destroying your neighbours' property, though.
So you're a 24 year old from the UK, "I live in the UK, I know the areas". Oh yeah, you know the areas? You're no doubt a southern wanker who hasn't ventured further north than Tottenham (in London for those who don't know, where the worst of the riots happened).
I agree with you that the violence was purely civil disobedience and nothing more, pure vandalism and robbery motivated.
But.. You advocated using the "military" to break up the riots? You want the British Army keeping control on British streets? If you think that, and I don't doubt that you do, then you're a sad tosser who doesn't deserve to live in this country. If you think the military on the streets is a good idea then you'd probably feel at home in a few African Republics. Not even Greece has descended to putting the military on the streets.
Your post by the way has a ridiculous sensationalist headline, almost all of it has nothing to do with "Gay Marriage".
You're a stupid little child who has probably never been further away from home than university. Grow up, understand what the military on the streets represents and most importantly of all, get stuffed, preferably anally".
By the way, your points 2, 3 and 4 are identical to each other. You don't even have your 24 year old brain synapses functioning correctly.
deleted, I made a mistook
I think there are a fair number of provocateurs here.
If they put enough really totally batshit crazy stuff here in the comments section, so-called "respectable" people can dismiss any ZH article or comment by saying, "That's the site with the [Nazis/gaybashers/dominionists/communists/whatever-the-fuck-else-you-want-to-use] all over it, right?"
That same tactic has very effectively spread the idea that Ron Paul is a racist.

This incompetent foo is trying to get votes from anybody he can get, first he suckered the black voters in, secondly he caved in to the fat cat bankers (Larry Fink et al) and rich arrogant foos (Warren Buffett) and now he's desperate to promote queerness and get more potential votes. if Bammy wins the november elections, lets just say that theres more queers out there than you think.
"It's the blow jobs, stupid."
BINGO!!!
Only 2% of the US population is gay. Another 3% MAY be bi, if some slanted studies are to be believed.
BUT, the Mainstream media and Hollywood are 50%+ gay. This was all about solidifying his Hollywood Money and Big Media base.
Back in 2008, some politically-incorrect article pointed out that 58% of NBC News New York staffers were Gay,Bi,lesbian or transgendered. in 2009, the Village Voice called the New York Times Editorial Board "THE GAY MAFIA", because every single one of them was GAY, and radical gay, to boot.
When you begin to understand THAT, you begin to understand why our media has become so biased.
A gay supportive candidate could come from behind and blow the head off the competition.
A gay supportive president will move a head fast...
A gay supportive presiednt could surprise from behind...
A gay supportive president could open the back door and let the navy seamen cum home...

I don't understand how his black supporters don't find that offensive.
Uhhh sure thing fake troll who sounds like a liberal. You should go back to www.dailykos.com, www.huffingtonpost.com, or any of the other 501(c)3's you probably came from.
Let me see...are they gonna make me marry gay? No?...Oh, then why all the fuss? - JS
Gay initiatives these days are very headstrong in their momen-tum.
Ron Paul is a Christian and his position on gay marriage confuses many people. It's simple really but most people no longer possess the cognitive ability to understand simple.
Government should not be in the marriage business period. Marriage used to be a private social cultural issue.. not a legal government issue. Today marriage is a contract between three parties, the government being one of them. You are entering into a legal agreement with the government. As long as you accept that then you must accept that government can define marriage any way it wants. It can change the definition at will. Now if you agree with Ron Paul, that marriage should NOT be a government issue, then people are left alone to make any decisions they like about a private matter. Gays could agree to have a private ceremony just as easily as anyone else.
This is how it should be. People are free to live their private lives the way they want and Ron Paul does not have to agree with it.
I happen to hate the idea of the government promoting Gay marriage but I hate the idea of Government promoting much or anything. I also think a gay lifestyle is unhealthy and should be avoided if possible and certainly not promoted as being acceptable in a healthy society but I'm not about to tell gays that they don't have the right to live the way they want.
It should also be known that it is NOT the grassroots gay community who has been promoting gay marriage. It's a top down political agenda.
>>"It should also be known that it is NOT the grassroots gay community who has been promoting gay marriage. It's a top down political agenda."<<
Lead by the AIPAC and Hollywood... 'nuff said
1-in-6 of Obama's Big Money Bundlers are queer.
Over 50% of Hollywood is Queer
58%+ of NBC News New York staffers are GLBTQ
The entire New York Times Editorial Board are Radical queers
50% of the Mainstream Media is queer.
Only 2% of the U.S. Population is gay, another 3% MAY be bi.
GET IT YET, FOLKS???
I'm picking up a strong "anti-gay" vibe from ya. Is that what we're supposed to GET?
Being anti gay is wrong. Fucking another dewd up the butt is where it's at. It's completely normal.. just ask the Jewish owned media and the Jewish controlled department of education. They are pro-gay. That means they encourage children in kindergarten through twelfth grade via official curriculum, to view one man fucking the other man up the ass as a healthy lifestyle choice. .
Clearly its' normal behavior for one man to oil up his penis and insert it in another man's shit hole. If you think otherwise you are throwing out an anti-gay vibe and that just is'nt cool.
Did you get all excited typing that post?
He missed out Catholic priests.
For that matter any religious person who thinks that they are right and anybody who doesn't agree with them is a fucking hypocrite. The religious imbecilic idiots who constantly spout their own dogma are the worst, by their very own beliefs in; supreme being(s), son of a god raped virgin, hell and heaven, bloody big boats full of animals landing on a 11000+ feet mountain captained by a very old geezer; and all sorts of buffoonery.
By the way, the Muslims are right, oops I meant the Hindus, oops I meant the Taoists, oops I meant the Christians, oops I meant the Jews, oops, not all of you can be right. If you're not right, and the chances are that you've been brainwashed from birth and you are in a minority then who the hell can know who is right?
Yet you all (American Christians) insist that you have the right to assume you're right and deny human rights to people you don't agree with (gays & marriage).
I hate every last fucking one of you religious simpletons, especially the gay christians who must have the lowest IQ score on Earth.
Tyler, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE delete my ID.
PS PLEASE
PPS Most of all I hate that fucking idiot HAIRLESS HORSEDICK
What Human "right" are we American Christians deigning to Gays? The "right" to marry? Marriage, in the untitled states is a legal contract between three parties, the Government being one of them. Marriage is not a right. You should never ever call another person a simpleton when you don't have the slightest understanding of the subject.
You and the other cognitive challenged pea brains are not talking about rights. You are talking about Government endorsement. You want the government to tell you what marriage is and who can get married. On the other hand, people with high cognitive function want the Government out of our private lives which means we believe people (yes even gays) have the RIGHT to form any type of relationships they want WITHOUT government endorsement or approval. We are the true defenders of rights. You and people like you don't have the ability to differentiate between rights and privileges. Marriage is not a right. Marriage is a contract that must be licensed. You need permission from the government to get married which makes it a privilege.. You do not need permission to exercise a right.
You are asking the Government for permission for gays to marry. It has nothing to do with rights
Again I reiterate, You of all people should never question the IQ of others. You lack even a basic fundamental understanding of rights.
You have an amazing access to the demographic profiles of a very large mass of individuals.
Or, you are pulling numbers from your sphincter.
I would characterize your ability to quote uncited numbers for the sexual orientation of a wide swath of individuals to be... queer.
That is the only thing I get from your post.
I agree completely with Ron Paul's position on this. Let people's church and/or culture recognize marriage in whatever form they feel is appropriate and keep government out of it all together.
I agree too for the most part.
The government should enforce contracts between couples, but should not engage in defining what 'marriage' is as that is a fundamentally religious institution. Let each faith decide that for themselves.
And I know marriage predates the establishment of formal religions, but so what? Shamen and priests predate formal religions too and were still asked to give their blessings in the new couple.
As for Obama's crap; I was considering voting for him, but no way now. I will never vote for anyone who supports homosexual marriage in any way shape or form, but civil unions are fine by me.
I really dont care who buggers who, but I dont want to pay for it or have mygovoernment endorse that perverted shit.
Whats next, the government will endorse bigamy?
It's more than that. The Government is a party to the contract. That's why you need a "license" to marry and permission to get a divorce.
Another classic fucking religious idiot who even manages to contradict himself!
"Let each faith decide that for themselves......
..... I will never vote for anyone who supports homosexual marriage in any way shape or form, but civil unions are fine by me."
So you're saying in one breath that they can decide for themselves but in the next breath you're saying you will never support them"
Another US Citizenism Religious Fucking Hypocrite.
PS Tyler, please delete my ID.
Au contraire, Bring the Gold. Recognize marriage as a civil right and churches can marry who the fuck they want.
You ZHers want private health insurance, right? Marriage is crucial in how the private insurance system runs.
You ZHers want private health insurance, right?
May not want to make foolish assumptions about "what ZHers want" based on a limited sample of posts. There's ZERO unanimity around these parts.
I disagree.
Ron should STFU : The "government" SHOULD do customs control and census, and NO ONE from ANY "Church" should have ANY say over who does what with WHO. Christ Himself would kick most 'Christian's' asses for getting it SO wrong.
Disregard tired old congressbitches: stack PM'S.
Christ Himself would kick most 'Christian's' asses for getting it SO wrong.
No, he would call it what GOD calls it, sin.
And HE would appeal to them (as he does all sinners), to repent, and come to him.
The Church does not just make THIS call,because they dislike or hate those who practice homosexuality(or any other sin for that matter) they preach it because its scriptural.................to preach against ANY sin named in scriptures,that are defined to be SIN.
If anyone says its not, they are ignorant or a liar.
You must know that the "scriptures" suggest all sorts of fucking nonsense, but never mind, be a US Citizenism who makes and obeys whatever rules he/she wants and fuck everybody else because you have the backing of "god".
PS Tyler, please delete my ID.
Where to begin, scripture? Are you fucking serious? Did Paul Bunyan convince you of it's validity? Seriously, get psychiatric attention. Secondly, the so called xtian bible does not override the US constitution, not one word of it. You can think and feel any way you please but if you are going to use your religious texts as justification for denying people basic human rights then I will be mor ethan happy to feed it to you page by page, unless you would rather have the entire thing inserted rectally. I used to be tolerant of religion and religious people, but shit for brains hating christians have totally changed my mind about that. You really need to get a dose of the bullshit you dish out and it cannot be too soon.

Go suck on a cat burrito.
You know they often say those that scream the loudest anti homosexual rant are usually VERY deep in the closest - now come on out you we know your hiding in there.
Sure, you mean "They" as in gay liberal communist wackos.
So if you believe fucking another man up the ass is abnormal.. you are a closet gay. Makes complete sense in the Orwellian world we live in today where up is down, evil is good and we get our news from wacko lesbians like Rachel Maddow.
I remember "having a go" (as we say in the UK) at Trav7777 about his own stated views on anal sex.
He said it was perfectly normal and a good thing to fuck a woman in "the ass" but if you did it to a man then that was disgusting.
Now if Trav is/was right then I'd be curious to know why one is right and one isn't. What is the difference between sticking a penis into a female or male anus?
Well?
I'm British and I confess to knowing that the American porn epmire is obsessed with anal sex, it's impossible not to notice.
Why?
PS Tyler, please delete my ID
"Why?"!!!! You, a Brit, should fucking know. You preverts taught Americans what "buggering", a fine(?) British tradition, was all about.
The difference is that the anus of the women is connected to a WOMEN.. You moron!
Fucking a man in the ass cannot be more abnormal than the perversion of someone anyone having sex with your biggoted ass. And by the way, THEY are a very long list of scientists as I posted three such studies below including one from Scientific American, but then such as yourself has no hope of understanding anything in a Scientific American, except maybe for the booze ads.
Homophobes Might Be Hidden HomosexualsA new analysis of implicit bias and explicit sexual orientation statements may help to explain the underpinnings of anti-gay bullying and hate crimes
http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=homophobes-might-be-hidden-homosexuals
Christianity is for mongoloids and losers (so are ALL RELIGIONS). As a descendant of the Carolingan monarchy and part Finnish, I can say that NO SELF-RESPECTING ARYAN MAN believes in God or better yet that a Jew parading around Jerusalem was the son of God. DO YOU THINK JESUS' MOM DIDN'T FUCK? Get THE FUCK OUT OF HERE RUNNING YOUR MOUTH ABOUT CHRISTIANITY AND ALL THAT STPUID RELIGIOUS SHIT. If fags want to marry let them. MARRIAGE iS BASICALLY FOR SQUARES AND CONFORMISTS SO IF GAY PEOPLE WANT TO FIT IN THEN LET THEM. THAT'S AMERICA. SHOULD INTERRACIAL MARRIAGES BE BANNED NEXT? SHOULD WE GO BACKWARDS BECAUSE OF RELIGIOUS CONSTRUCTS EMANATING FROM A STORYBOOK WRITTEN THREE THOUSAND YEARS AGO ABOUT JEWS WANDERING THE DESERT? What if someone with a penis and vagina wants to get married? What does god say about hermaphrodites? Does jesus have any pearls of wisdom? RELIGION CAN"T FUCK WITH SCIENCE. RELIGION IS ALL ABOUT OPRESSION AND AN AFTERLIFE SO ONE DEOSN"T NOTICE HOW THE POWERS THAT BE GET OVER ON YOU.
How about YOU go fuck yourself cretin.
Jim Bowie, what a well thought out reply.
Let me guess... erm.... you're a FUCKING HYPOCRITICAL AMERICAN CHRISTIAN NUTJOB??
PS Tyler, please delete my ID.
Just tell us who you really are....an angry midget who dresses in drag. Now get that ball gag out of your mouth and turn off the caps lock you idiot.
I'M A REAL AMERICAN. NOT A PUSSY WHO GOES TO CHURCH AND BELIEVES IN THE FUCKING BOOGEYMAN. I DON'T LET MEDIEVAL NOTIONS GOVERN ME, MY MORALITY, OR INTELLECTUAL PURSUITS. HAVE YOUR GIRL/DAUGHTER SUCK THE INTERIOR OUT OF MY DICK. BITCH ASS. KEEP PRAYING AND VOTING REPUBLICAN. CULTS ARE GOOD FOR WEAK-MINDED LAMBS NOT EVEN SHEEP.
So is this a reverse-Born Patriot sock puppet? A hyper-Conservative being as obnoxious as possible posing as an atheist liberal/libertarian to make that side look bad?
No bro just dont like religious idiots.
TURN YOUR FUKING CAPS OFF. ITS MAKING ME LOOK BAD.
Ah yes, Science! Speak more of this science.
just cool a bit... And stop SHOUTIN
Yeah let's be civil towards people who believe they will see their grandparents after they die. Blow me. Religion needs to be eradicated not placated.
>>"I'M A REAL AMERICAN."<<
Two minutes later...
>>"Religion needs to be eradicated not placated."<<
Yeah, a REAL AMERICAN!! LMAO!! I love how those who have to shout to the world "I'M AMERICAN" and wave the biggest ass American flag they can find are the worst offenders of everything truly American...
You don't even know what the meaning of being American is... you have your liberal dick so far up Odumbo's ass you can't see straight... Listen, get yourself a one way ticket to China or North Korea and GTFO of my country...
You're an angry man who needs to seek help... maybe the 'atheist flying spaghetti monster' can help you?
"Yeah, a REAL AMERICAN!! LMAO!!"
Well your argument is very clear. You are saying that if you're not religious you're not an American.
You are so simple you reveal your stupidity several times in your post. This guy you attack doesn't belong in America because you assume:
1. He's an "angry man"
2. He's liberal
3. He supports Obama
4. He can't see straight
5. You own America "GTFO of my country..."
6. He's waving "the biggest ass American flag they can find"
Listen mate. You're a fuckwit, that's for free. (The word "redneck" came to mind)
PS Tyler, please delete my ID. I've had my fill of stupid Americans and the new idiots here on ZH who are breeding faster than bacteria.
When bacteria breed, do they fuck each other in the ass?
I think they fuck your wife and daughters in the ass after you get home from the "bookstore."
You are such a cretin you do not even understand that bacteria reproduce by mitosis. You have your preachers dick so far up your ass when you talk white goo comes out.
>>"Well your argument is very clear. You are saying that if you're not religious you're not an American."<<
Reading comprehension is not part of the cirriculum in England, correct? Read it again, wanker, until your brain makes a clicking sound. Neither you nor him know the meaning of being an American despite waving the big flag... I'll let you in on a not so secret secret: A TRUE AMERICAN believes in RELIGIOUS FREEDOM which includes the right to NOT PRACTICE RELIGION-- this imbecile said vaey plainly that RELIGION "SHOULD BE ABOLISHED"...
Sorry mate, that does not fly... and worse, after TSHTF people like you will find America a very dark place to exist.
>>"This guy you attack doesn't belong in America because you assume:
1. He's an "angry man" (He is an angry man filled with violence)
2. He's liberal (That goes without saying)
3. He supports Obama (See above)
4. He can't see straight (If he's the garden varitey English bloke then his teeth are neither)
5. You own America "GTFO of my country..." (Don't put words in my mouth son)
6. He's waving "the biggest ass American flag they can find" (Remember, he's a REAL AMERICAN!)<<
In summary, I hope you're not a lawyer because you'd make a weak case and we're done. I won't waste another key stroke on you.
PS TYLER: Please do all loyal ZH'ers a favor and 'honour' this bloke's request to delete his account. He has asked for it in every post he has made and still posts... he can't resist the urge to discuss with "stupid Americans"
What could I possibly be angry about? Maybe I should pray and the maladies that beset this country will vaporize like the pensions of the earnest proletariat? I know about contemporary America. If you believe in Christ then you are living in Medieval Europe SO GO FUCK A GNOME OR PUT ON A SUIT OF ARMOUR. YOU HAVE SHIT INSTEAD OF A BRAIN AND SHOULD STUDY SOME FUCKING BIOLOGY. THE TIME YOU SPENT PRAYING YOU COULD HAVE BEEN FIGURING OUT WAYS TO EXPOSE CROOKS ON WALL ST OR DEVELOP A WAY TO CURE YOUR IMPOTENCE/MICROPHALLUS CONDITION.
>>"What could I possibly be angry about?"<<
Obviously lots of things. Did a priest touch you when you were little and now you hate all religion? Are you so repulsive in every sense of the word that no girl ever gave you attention, therefore you fell in love with another boy? Has you unemployment money run out? Do you crave attention? You should seek help...
>>Maybe I should pray and the maladies that beset this country will vaporize like the pensions of the earnest proletariat?<<"
Yes, I told you to pray to your flying spaghetti monster. In a way I am glad to see the push for gay marriage and the push against religion. Why, you ask? Because if there is a God and I'm certain there is, then this God will certainly wipe the filth from the earth as he said he would once all this occurs. I'm certain, once America becomes totally secular, he'll do something and it will be big. We'll have to wait and see... If you're right, well then we'll both live our lives as is. If I'm right, your future is very bleak...
>>"If you believe in Christ then you are living in Medieval Europe SO GO FUCK A GNOME OR PUT ON A SUIT OF ARMOUR."<<
Oh, now I see the connection: believing in Jesus = Medieval Europe = suit of armour!! Thank you for clarifying. What have I been thinking all these years?!
>>"YOU HAVE SHIT INSTEAD OF A BRAIN AND SHOULD STUDY SOME FUCKING BIOLOGY. THE TIME YOU SPENT PRAYING YOU COULD HAVE BEEN FIGURING OUT WAYS TO EXPOSE CROOKS ON WALL ST OR DEVELOP A WAY TO CURE YOUR IMPOTENCE/MICROPHALLUS CONDITION."<<
Yada yada yada, a few more ad hominem attcks, yada, more bullshit not even worth responding to.
Thanks for this great rebuttal. You've really enlightened me.
Because if there is a God and I'm certain there is, then this God will certainly wipe the filth from the earth as he said he would once all this occurs. I'm certain, once America becomes totally secular, he'll do something and it will be big. We'll have to wait and see... If you're right, well then we'll both live our lives as is. If I'm right, your future is very bleak
I CANT BELIEVE HOW FUCKING STUPID YOU ARE. THAT EXPOSITION EPITOMIZES EVERYTHING WRONG WITH RELIGION. ASSHOLES IMBICILES LIKE YOU ARE WAITING FOR GOD TO DO SOMETHING. KEEP FUCKING WAITING BUDDY. YOU WILL BE WAITING UNTIL YOUR COPRSE IS ROTTEN BECAUSE THERE IS NO GOD. YOU BOUGHT INTO A RELIGION STARTED THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO BEFORE KNEW WHAT SPERM LOOKED LIKE. BAD NEWS: YOU ARENT GOING TO PLAY WITH YOUR PUPPY IN HEAVEN YOU PIECE OF SHIT.

DID YOU REALLY WRITE THIS OR STEAL IT FROM BRANCH DIVIDIAN LITERATURE? WHAT A FUCKING PSYCHO LOSER.
Thank you. I have no intention of playing with my puppy in heaven, but I know you will sing a different tune on your deathbed as do all athesits when they face the end of their lives, just in case... you know... there "might" be a creator...
Somehow, I don't think that will save you...
Born Patriot,
You, of course, are part of a shrinking population against gay marriage. But you're right, Ron Paul is a Christian. Hell, he's a Creationist, isn't he?
FUCK THEM ALL. RELIGIOUS, POLITICAL, AND FINANCIAL EXPLOITATION ARE THE BANES/HALLMARK OF MODERN OPPRESSION. ALL PART OF THE SAME COMPLEX. RICH TAKING ADVANTAGE OF POOR AND LIVING LIKE BYZANTINES.
I am having a hard time understanding this post. Could you possibly take some more time and delineate some of the finer points, and then sum them up into one cogent statement?
You don't understand how religion exploits the lower classes? Had you heard of the crusades? Have you EVER READ A FUCKING HISTORY BOOK? Do you think that preventing stem cell research is good for society? How about no abortions? How about molesting alter boys? Where would the discussion of the cancerous nature of religion possibly end?
DUKE! I like the way you GET MAD and STAY COGENT.
I know you must piss a lot of people off, but the TRUTH is hard to take at 110 proof.
and that last line?
"Living like Byzantines."
Genius.
Don't ever change.
"See kids? THAT's how you shut down someone with more money than brains."
Especially since the bible king james gave the modern world was actually mostly written by a prostitute in what is now Istanbul. The emporer had the hots for a sexy stripper and they could see the political handwritting on the wall, so they made xtianity the state religion AFTER they rewrote the creed.
Christianity is no more relevent or true than the bunny rabbits in Watership Down. What you choose to believe is your business, but it has no place in government or any government supported entity like schools. It sure as hell does not belong in our laws. If you insist on using that abortion of a text to foist your hate and prejudices upon citizens like me then what you will have is war. One day it could come to armed conflict, but for the time being I will settle for keying your car, and doing anything I can to cost or annoy you.
Yup. This is the political class in D.C. protecting their monopoly on control. In this case, the tax code. But the well intended marriage and dependant deduction in the tax code are akin to roman aristocrats allowing the servants to eat the lightly chewed leftovers that the servants harvested, prepared, served and cleaned up.
Welcome to the machine all you same sex couples! From a purely statistical angle, this action might get the marriage rate above 50% again, since the previous tax code has failed in encouraging such behavior. But the tax code has succeed in paying for unconsitutional wars, 101% deficit spending, and a class of elites that pay lower taxes than the middle class, and G.E. employing more tax advoidance specialist than they employ nuclear technicians, engineers and researchers. Also, dont forget Trillions in ex-patriated dollars that can not be brought back to the US.
Nothing 'foolish' about YOU, Wisefool. You're right.PS: You know what the cognoscenti REALLY call gays?
"DINKS.'
Double Income, No Kids. They're not gonna leave the "fruits' UNHARVESTED.
Just ANOTHER INCOME STREAM. like Everybody else. "equality" hasn't got anything to do with it.
SUCKERS. They just fucked themselves; they should have kept the fancy vacations and the expensive clothes.
Now it's into the grinder right along with the straights.
Bring your leather chaps its time for some bump and grind.
Just bend over and relax
sounds like someone's a little bi-curious
Ahhh,all that shit about tradition and values went bye bye long ago.Country was bought and paid for long ago.
Does male homesexuality disgust me, yes so does paying high gas prices, making 0 percent in saving and seeing hetersexual couple making out in public. But I feel a person is intitled to their free will. At long as they dont impose their freewill on me I'm ok. Religion is a bigger scam then fiat currency.
+199
I can only assume that your downvotes are because of "Religion is a bigger scam then fiat currency."
An awful lot of these allegedly intelligent ZHers believe in the christian fantasy. Such is the nature of US Citizenism.
PS Tyler, please delete my ID.
"Cause and effect" has preempted freewill. A person is no longer "intitled" to their -- it never was theirs -- freewill.
Born Patriot, The traditional American culture is a roadblock to their Hollywood Culture, and who wants Hollywood Culture with its anything goes as long as it titillates lust and makes money. Not only is that not for me, but that is the recipe for the destruction of a great nation put on a foundation of justice and morality by its Founders.
S. J. Perelman is no authority on morality but he certainly knew Hollywood:
“A dreary industrial town controlled by hoodlums of enormous wealth, the ethical sense of a pack of jackals and taste so degraded that it befouled everything it touched.”
These will be the hoodlums writing checks for the re-election of a president who should never have been allowed to place his hand on the Bible.
GoldManSex.
It pleases me to see that after much political pressure, the president now agrees with Dick Cheney on the subject of gay marriage. Now can we get on to something more important like who
Beyonce' is sleeping with this week, or why there is only ten ounces of chips in a one pound bag. You know, important stuff.
Well said.
His boy Reggie?
Newly christened as Obuggar.
Maybe Larry is back in town.
Morals? I agree. As we see Wall Street systemically ripping off pension funds and manipulating the markets, selling toxic debt to widowers, as governments sell out our childrens future into poverty, it's homosexuals fault that society is collapsing.
Give me a fucking break.
Are you blind or just plain stupid?!
So bashing immorality in the equity and banking markets is okay, but sexual deviance is off limits? They are one in the same for all you idiots out there.
Any "man" that will have "physical" relations with another man is capable of ........ANYTHING!!!!
When are you stupid people going to get that through your heads?
It's not funny, cute, entertaining, schick, etc. but rather disgusting and sickening! It is a symptom of how low we have fallen in this immoral, godless society called America.
I would like to believe that America is based on freedoms. If you are against freedom perhaps you should move some where were the government tells you how to live every minute of your life. As long as it fits with your 'morals' I am sure you would love it. Perhaps we should begin a campaign to stone people to death who live a life style you find disgusting and sickening.
OK please respond by calling me names. I am ready.
Your own name is all the name-calling I would ever do to you.
No need to say anything else.
What can I say - with the intellectual level displayed in your post, don't you think you should be elsewhere on the web, commenting on posts?
Like Youtube?
Okay let me ask you a question mr. moral uprightness. I have a couple of freinds who happen to be a gay couple. They can't get married but they have been able to adopt a child. This boy came from a heterosexual home and his father was a drunk who beat him and his mom silly. So where is this boy better off? In a home where he gets beat to death or with two loving parents who happens to be male? And if it makes any differnce to your answer the boy is older now and has a crush on my daughter.
Another question...I'll make the assumption that you area pro life person. Wouldn't it be better if we had more couples who are willing to adopt and raise a child instead of that child being aborted? Which is the greater evil in your eyes?
Having a drunk father and a sodomite parent are not the only two options on the planet.
Really, is that the best argument you can put forth?
Yes because all the other options are working so well. I for one would rather have the mother who just aborted her 6th child give the child a chance with a gay couple instead of having them tossed out with the trash....but maybe that works for you.
And they must have the official sanction of "marriage" for all you want to have to work, eh? Why?
Why must that be forced upon a society that has clearly shown it does not want to give that official sanction?
Gays can go do whatever they want, but forced acceptance is all the militant gays are after, and well, if you're all for forcing people to accept things...well now, that leaves a lot of things that can be forced on people, now doesn't it? Kinda wipes the pet protestations other people have right down the drain, don't it?
It's not about having the official sanction of marriage; it's about having the rights that come with state sanctioned marriage. I've heard stories of partners together for twenty years who can't visit when the other is dying hospital because they're not a spouse or family member. Homosexuals deserve the same rights as heterosexuals; anything less is discrimination.
Please remember that there's supposed to be a clear separation of church and state in this country. Jesus, the divorce rate is 50% and you people talk about protecting the sanctity of marriage. How about you make divorce illegal? You're also the same people that claim to want less government intervention in your life. When did ZH fill up with right-wing fundies?
So if it's "only about having the rights" then civil unions would suffice, right?
Personaly I could give a shit ... leave it up to the states. This is a distraction issue to turn our heads away from the moribund economy.
Agreed. This is a distraction, and one easily countered by Romney..."the President is against the majority of people on this issue, it's settled, lets move onto more important issues like unravelling all the socialist policies that have crippled our economy and left us with nothing but piles of debt".
As for the morbidly retarded position that gay marriage is a civil right is BS, as you correctly highlight in your opening comment.
But the militant gays and their supporters are not interested in civil unions with equal rights...forced acceptance of every aspect of their lifestyle is all they'll settle for. If that proposition is allowed to stand...can't wait for the pedophiles, pederasts, necrophiliacs and beastiality folks to demand their civil rights too.
Then anything goes will really be anything goes and non-acceptance will be punished by the state.
Yippee.

When did ZH fill up with right-wing fundies?
It DID?...................
Damn, coulda fooled me.
That is just exactly the same argument used to deny those dirty niggers the vote in Louisiana. If the white male heterosexual establishment demands the sole right to define what is and is not marriage then it would just not be worth having. Unfortunately you dirty rotten fuckers decided to turn it into a government cash cow worth hundreds of billions per year in real money as goodies and tax dodges. But unfortunately for you that is law and there is a little clause in the constitution that says all citizens will be treated equally under the law.
Am I a militant gay, fuck your bitch wife I am, I am not just militant I contribute cash money to candidates that stand up to closet cases like you.
For the rest of you I have just got to ask, if you hate gays so much why do you keep making more of them every day? And did you ever stop to think that your puerile attitudes about your own dirty little secrets of homosexuality that you work so hard to hide might not be damaging your own kids? Some of you might have dodged a bullet by having only straight kids sure, but some of you have gay kids even if they will not come out to you because you are such assholes about it. I know I heard more than enough jokes about Liberace and having to sit down to pee to last a lifetime from my male relatives, guess what, the same dudes that were making jokes about queers were also coming home late at night with cum on their breath and once I finally did come out to my family the ones that were so obnoxious about gay people never spoke to me again, not because I was a gay man but because they were so humiliated about the hate filled things they said.
Go to CraigsList, look at man 4 man or casual encounters, half the ads there are posted by married men. It is sad in my book that men want to sleep with other men but have to find a stupid bitch to marry by your laws to get the rewards of playing by the book, they are gay or they would not be advertising on CL for other men to have sex with, but the other side of the coin is that for every man that is married that has an ad at CL there are 20 that would have if they thought they would not get caught, and if there were NO "moral" punishments for being who you are half of all men would have at least tried it and that is a fact that we ALL take for granted except those with something to hide.
Last word is that you do not have to be gay, you do not have to be straight, you do not have to be anything you do not want to be, but when you presume to tell others what or who to be you beg for a fight you cannot win.
I'll bite.
Two wrongs don't make a right.
Dr Engali.i do'nt post much.I however enjoy your posts.Bravo.It is because of your kind,yhat i came to zerohedge.I'm a middle aged, hetersexual man with a coleege going son.
Hopefully your "coleege going son" (sic) can teach you to spell, you "hetersexual" (sic) man.
Anybody with any kind of moral center understands that homosexual activity is repellent. If it happens behind closed doors, well, what people do behind closed doors is their business. When it is celebrated in public, it becomes everybody's business and undermines the moral fabric of society and the integrity of the family unit.
Interestingly, the "other Tyler Durden" has been covering the Travolta story, which gives a good indication of how sick our society has become.
"The lawsuit filed yesterday by an unnamed male masseuse against John Travolta for sexual battery is full of gag-reflex testing details like in the headline, and that’s just a prelude to things like Travoltas opinion on the taste of cum and whether or not the masseuse would experience “the best fucking of his life” (spoiler alert: according to Travolta, yes).
Here’s a few, um, “highlights”?
I don’t mean to be a Monday morning quarterback, but telling a guy that he’ll probably find gay sex repulsive and it’s only worth it if it makes you famous and pays millions of dollars, is maybe not the best way to convince a guy to anonymously blow you for a few hundred"
http://www.wwtdd.com/2012/05/john-travolta-lumbered-to-his-feet-his-erec...
Wow! All that unnecessary detail on a financial website seems....obsessive. Did you get titillated writing it? Did you “embrace your inner demons”, if you know what I mean?
Looks like you got titillated reading it.
Typical homosexual logic. If you don't support homosexuals, then you secretly must be a homosexual.
Let's try this. Do you find pedophilia repellent? Oh you do? Then you must secretly be a child molester.
I believe we've just discovered the nom de plume of Ted Hagee on Zerohedge.
Are you going to write a salacious tome on that topic, too? The authorities might want to check Buckaroo's hard drive.
You better shape up
do woo woo
cause I neeeeed a maaaaan
that will keep me satisfied
And if you thought you had trouble watching "Grease" before now... think again, bitches!
If you aren't gay why does a man fucking another man gross you out? Honestly, I think you are a fucking fag stright up. A heterosexual man who destroys pussies of wax figure hot chicks like myself would not be bothered by fags banging or listening to grace jones at parties smelling like nitrates. Your getting grossed out by details of gay sex intimates that you would probably love getting banged in the ass.
only faggots and sailors are named Larry
Good one especially for someone with no dick.
I don't see any connection between "moral center" and "repellent."
Have you ever seen a fat guy eat lobster?
Anybody with any kind of moral center understands that homosexual activity is repellent.
It is only repellent to you because you spend so much fucking time dwelling on what gay men do in bed with each other. You are going to have to trust me here when I say nothing could be more repellent to many people including me to have to think about what you and your skank de jour are getting up with your genitals as well, so should I react badly and prevent you from enjoying equality under the law? Should I beat you to death? Should I make laws to criminalize your sexual tastes because I don't LIKE what YOU do?

No, you need to look deeper at your own motives for this nastiness that comes out of you every time you comment on the matter, because it is nastiness that is in YOU, not from outside of you, and I am sure when you do you will have to at last admit what a pathetic closet case you are.

"Any "man" that will have "physical" relations with another man is capable of ........ANYTHING!!!!"
please keep your fantasies out of this.
is there any data to support this? any?
It's funny you call these people nothing less than freaks of nature when your actual hypothesis is the only thing that meets that category.
This is nothing more than your opinion based ultimately on personal and religious grounds....the same grounds that our Constitution used to protect and leave at the personal level.
spot on. It's all shit I don't care to know about. You want to do wrong, not my place to stop you. If you feel like doing risky things with and in your personal life, be my fucking guest, so long as I'm not footing the bill for your idiocy and the risks will eventually call the tab due with time.
Put it in my face and force me to get involved then you probably are not going to like my opinion on the matter.
Lotta of swingers running around im sure,thats a big suburbia play ground.
Do you want a hug?
I scoured the Help Wanted Section in the Bible, but I didn't see the ad for "Judges Wanted".
Maybe you should have looked here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Judges
I scoured the Help Wanted Section in the Bible, but I didn't see the ad for "Judges Wanted".
Maybe you should read this:
"Thou shalt not bear false witness".
IOW - I highly doubt you even cracked the cover of a Bible. But had you done so, you might have read.
"Judge righteous judgment". Oh, by the way that was Jesus who said that.
Any "man" that will have "physical" relations with another man is capable of ........ANYTHING!!!!
REALLY? Holy shit!
Let's just have them fix the economy! I can't believe no one's figured this out before!
Fuck, they can feed the hungry and house the homeless too! And cure cancer! And create world peace!
Damn. Now I'm almost feeling jealous of the faggots.
No kidding. Maybe that explains Superman.
"...strange visitor from another planet who came to Earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. Superman, who can change the course of mighty rivers, bend steel in his bare hands; and who, disguised as Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights a never ending battle for truth, justice, and the American way."
Mystery solved.
So THAT'S why Clark never married Lois!
Yeah. Those tights, the cape, the boots, obsessive body building, the hair gel. It all fits.
funny, but I'm confused
robin was from THIS planet but clearly had similar issues
he also invoked religion constantly. Must have been the reformed church
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQVfOguNWBw
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARoCpelSF70&feature=related
Robin just had daddy issues, but really, nobody who watched that show ever questioned his sexuality, any viewer thinking he was straight was either blind or stupid.
bishirley,
let me see, at the moment your votes are 18 up 32 down so about one third of Americans agree with you.
No fucking wonder your country is hated by most of the world. I don't hate your country at all though, just morons like you.
PS Tyler, for the love of fucking jesus fucking christ on a pizza will you please delete my godless immoral ID.
"Those that can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities." Voltaire..............
And anybody that believes the absurdity of christianity/bible is also guilty of atrocity.
Aaahh. You can just feel the love oozing from the sodomite.
Does it not just KILL you that the sodomite has the same fucking rights under the constitution as you do? You are a sad small dick excuse for a man.
Corzine should be forced to "embrace" gay marriage, while in prison!
He was plummeting in the ratings. I wonder how long he has been waiting to whip this one out? This is all I am hearing on the news and radio now. People seem to forget that he has lived up to nothing he has said so far. He makes bush look tame. Sad how easily people are distracted from the main show.
