(39,909 posts)and who parades under the banner of the World Nut Daily.....is easy for me to brush off.
I actually applaud this announcement of his evolution,
but don't find anything here to ring the bells about.
He DID straddle the fence by tossing this Equal Rights issue BACK to The States
and a Republican Congress.
It cost him nothing.
Everyone who is against Equal Rights for Everyone won't be voting for Obama anyway,
and this personal announcement WILL re-energize some of the Base.
Good Politics.
Social Issue that won't alienate Wall Street or other BIG Corporate donors.
Great Risk/Reward.
Well Played!
When President Obama decides to actually Take a Stand and Do the Right Thing
for Equal Rights & Equal Protections for ALL,
like THIS Democratic President did

...THEN, I will get excited.
Obama and his Family should thank LBJ every single day that HE didn't believe that
Equal Rights & Equal Protections were an issue to be resolved by The States.
Cheers!
You will know them by their WORKS,
not by their Personal Evolutions.
