Socialist Obama

Fox add that was pulled after complaints

This was after Obama saying on ABC that he now supports the right for gays to marry: http://gma.yahoo.com/blogs/abc-blogs/president-obama-affirms-his-support-for-same-sex-marriage.html

It's a risky move, as there is a lot of bad sentiment towards gays and gay-marriage.

Look what happened in CA not that long ago, no one thought California of all states would vote against it, yet it happened

I guess it depended on the amount of people who actually voted but yeah.

I'm sure these guys are careful with their decisions. It probably wont favor well to the people who already aren't supporting him like old republicans.

Wouldn't that make Obama a flip-flopper?

I'm sure it was done for political reasons and his advisers told him to do it now, possibly to gain support with the female demographic (or other), if he happened to be showing low numbers there.

It's just something I think that could easily blow-up in his face and lose him more votes that he initially had in total.

That's one reason. This is another...?

A few days later, Friedemann entered Stevens Hall off the school’s collegiate quad to find Romney marching out of his own room ahead of a prep school posse shouting about their plan to cut Lauber’s hair. Friedemann followed them to a nearby room where they came upon Lauber, tackled him and pinned him to the ground. As Lauber, his eyes filling with tears, screamed for help, Romney repeatedly clipped his hair with a pair of scissors.

The incident was recalled similarly by five students, who gave their accounts independently of one another. Four of them — Friedemann, now a dentist; Phillip Maxwell, a lawyer; Thomas Buford, a retired prosecutor; and David Seed, a retired principal — spoke on the record. Another former student who witnessed the incident asked not to be named. The men have differing political affiliations, although they mostly lean Democratic. Buford volunteered for Barack Obama’s campaign in 2008. Seed, a registered independent, has served as a Republican county chairman in Michigan. All of them said that politics in no way colored their recollections.

“It happened very quickly, and to this day it troubles me,” said Buford, the school’s wrestling champion, who said he joined Romney in restraining Lauber. Buford subsequently apologized to Lauber, who was “terrified,” he said. “What a senseless, stupid, idiotic thing to do.”

“It was a hack job,” recalled Maxwell, a childhood friend of Romney who was in the dorm room when the incident occurred. “It was vicious.”

Hmmm

If this is the first time he's changed his mind on gay-marriage, no, it would be a mind-change. IIRC, it is. When he ran in 2008, he said "I believe marriage is between a man and a woman." Now he's rescinded.

"Flip-Flopper" is someone who goes back-and-forth on a stance(s). Romney is a perfect current example and a master of the tactic.

Well, I heard that when he was a Senator he was for gay marriage. If that was true, then he is a flip-flopper, and for political reason to boot.

Well, if you have some proof that he's gone back and forth, then sure, he's a flipper-flop.

Perhaps, but if he was better looking, then he would flip-flop too. 😛

Whatttt. Ron Paul gets the bitches. He was a pretty good lookin young man i'll have to admit. My girlfriend seems to think so and all those "ron paul girls".

You havent seen the Ron Paul bras lately?

Lol, digging up something from pre-2008.

Good on him, sticking to his horrible idiotic policies without the slightest thought.

Also he's gone back and forth on both the death penalty and global warming. Not to mention that he talks out one side of his mouth about government waste while piling on the pork, which makes him a flip-flopper every time he complains about the federal government.

I don't think you know what a terrorist is.

Depends on the perspective. Using drones to execute an American Citizen could be considered terrorism for some.

ya, but using that standard, you will be hard pressed to find a president who isn't a terrorist
