145. If it were about the issues for you, you wouldn't post the things you post.

If it were about the issue, you would acknowledge that Barack Obama has the best track record on gay rights out of every single President thats ever sat in the office. If it were about the issue for you, you wouldn't spam the forums with obscure references to Donnie McClurkin all the time.

These are all, by the way, personal attacks against Obama on your part. Spare me the lectures about personal attacks. You are in no position to make them.

I've no problem with you taking issue with Obama because he is still seemingly behind the times on gay marriage. But you take it a step further. For you, its an all out crusade to convince everyone that he is a gay hating bigot who wants to see homosexuals suffer. And so you name drop the same names of the small handful of anti-gay individuals that Obama has given the time of the day to and you use that to make your case. And you ignore that the pro-gay rights advocates he has given the time of day to far exceed the number of names that you obsessively drop. Meanwhile, Obama is up there in Washington handing out executive orders and overturning bad laws in the interest of gay rights. He is appointing gay people to high positions and signing laws to grant them more protection from hate crimes. You are running your mouth about crazy preachers while Barack Obama has actually been making the lives of GLBT people easier and closer to fair. That must really get under your skin.

If I'm wrong about you, then please, explain to me which rights that have been denied to GLBT people have you won for them and ultimately granted them? Barack Obama has a list. What is your list?
