Well, earlier this week, Obama said that he has changed his mind about gay marriage, and now says that he supports it. He used to believe that it should stay man and women, but in an interview, I guess his mind just happened to change. There isn't too much to add to what it was about.

So, does anyone else find it very wierd that he all of a suddden changed his mind on same-sex marriage a few months before the elections? (sarcasm). I don't have anything against gay marriage or gay people, but there are some people who support gay marriage waaaaaay too much, like WAY to much. Go ahead and support your beliefs. But back to Obama and his beliefs. I believe, like many others, this is just a move to get all the people who support same-sex marriage to vote for him. It's just a bit unusual that he all of a sudden changes his mind. It just upsets me he is saying this to get votes. He just needs to state what he believes in. I just feel bad for all the poeple who like Obama now just because he said that. But again, I believe he said it just for the votes. I just feel like Obama shouldn't be president again. He isn't basing his campaign on the economy because look what happened to it during his term. He is just basing it off of killing bin Laden, and now he supports gay marriage. Let's just get this country in line and on a good path economic wise and then deal with everything else.
I agree with you Matt. This is a terrible way to win over the votes. I personally am against gay marriage. Like gay people are okay, but I am against them marrying each other. Marriage should be between man and woman. The only way for a child to be born is through a man and a woman. I just think Obama is wrong for doing this.
ReplyDeleteI mean, yes it's a backhanded way to win over votes, but this always happens every election year. Politicians always say or do something to get more votes like this. Don't you think all of the highly religious people will vote for Romney? In any case, two thumbs up to gay people. I think they should have all the same rights straight people have and not be descriminated against. People should be with who the love.
ReplyDeleteYes it is very controversial since he is coming out with this comment during election season. He is trying to win votes when most people will see he is a hypocrite. Which in turn will cause him to lose more votes than he will get. Although, it is not our job to judge people and if a church wants to marry someone of the same sex then that is their decision, not a state affair.
