Newsweek Magazine Calls Obama "First Gay President"

Newsweek magazine really went over board with this one. Using "shock value" to grab attention is a common tactic among media sources these days, however they went way too far with this.

The cover they chose to put up addressing President Obama's outspoken support for the gay community, rather tastelessly depicts an image of a "rainbow halo" over his head, with the words "The First Gay President" beneath his face. The article, written by Mr. Andrew Sullivan is just as bold and ridiculous as the magazine cover. This guy actually had the nerve to write this stuff.

Here's what Mr. Sullivan wrote:

"When you step back a little and assess the record of Obama on gay rights, you see, in fact, that this was not an aberration. It was an inevitable culmination of three years of work. And President Obama has much in common with the gay community. He had to discover his black identity and then reconcile it with his white family, just as gays discover their homosexual identity and then have to reconcile it with their heterosexual family."

Seriously? What a shame...

truth is that because of Barry's minority status, he inadvertently absorbs some of the minority votes-- ( women, gays, latinos).... so in turn they turn the volume up on those issues-- so he can seem more heroic to everyone- instead of just black people--- Although I think that it is FANTASTIC we got a black man in the big chair-- WE ARE GETTING 100% SHAFTED BY HIS CABAL OF BOULE AGENDAS-- AND THE GLOBALISTS WHO HAVE PAID AND SCRIPTED EVERY STEP HE TAKES- AND HE CANT DO A THNG BECAUSE HE LOVES HIS FAMILY AND THEY WILL TAKE HIM DOWN-- SO WE ARE LEFT WITH A FUKKING DUD- WHO IS DOWN WITH JAY Z AND BEYONCE- A NATION OF STAR FUKKERS...... EVERYONE SHOULD JOIN THE OCCUPY MOVEMENT AND THEN VOTE FOR RON PAUL- EVEN IF YOU DONT AGREE WITH 100- HE IS MORE FOR THE PEOPLE AND OUR RIGHTS AS AMERICAN- NOW MORE BLACKS AND LATINOS ARE IN PRISON- TSA HAS BEEN UPPED- SECURITY IS TIGHTER- AND MORE INTRUSIVE- MORE WARS- LIES- DEATHS- HAITI- GULF OIL- THE LOSS OF JOBS- OH AND I WOULD HOPE THAT NOW WE HAVE A BLACK PRESIDENT WE WOULD SEE HIM SPEAKNG WITH THE GREAT MINDS LIKE CORNELL WEST- INSTEAD HE ALIGNS HIMSELF WITH THE JESSE JACKSONS, AL SHARPTONS, BREZINSKIS AND KISSENGERS-- AND OF COURSE- OUR VERY OWN HIP HOP ILLUMINATI STAR JAY Z-- THE BIGGEST DO NOTHING WHO INVESTS HIS MONEY IN FEMA MANDATED STADIUMS - PUT IN NEIGHBORHOODS TO PROTECT PEOPLE FROM PANDEMICS-- TRUTH

Dude stfu Ron paul Mit Romney and obama all work for the same Globalist. The whole government in a majority around the world take orders from the Elite/globalist. The people are going to have to literally up root the government of many nations or assinate the 1% elite and I really don't see that happening everything is smoke and mirrors atm. If People open their eyes Identify the bigbuisness and stop financially supporting them then we have a slim chance but as long as you all believe your vote really counts in this country there is no hope. March on wall street is in the right direction but that needs to be intensified by 10 fold to even make a small differance.
