- Despite applause and enthusiasm for Pres. Obama's speech
at the Human Right Campaign's recent annual dinner, homosexual online newspaper
The Washington Blade was not entirely impressed. Two prominent articles
quoted gay rights sources who claim Obama is "all talk and no action."
At the dinner was "a line of about 75 LGBT activists who criticized
the president for not moving fast enough on LGBT rights legislation."
Protest organizer Andy Thayer says, "The point of the matter is this
president has given us a lot of rhetoricHe's promised a lot, and the only
time he's done anything is when people got pissed off and protested."
-
- "Literature provided by the protesters also criticized
HRC and LGBT Democrats for not pushing harder for Congress and the president
to do more 'For too many years, the LGBT movement has been the plaything
of the Democratic Party,' said a statement handed out by the protesters.
'Courted for money and votes when they needed us, abused and disrespected
once they're in power.'"
-
- Another article on the Blade website, from a gay blog,
says of Obama's speech: "We've heard all of this before from Obama
during the campaign he supports us, will sign certain billsbut what
we are lacking is that 'fierce advocate' he promised to be. No time tables.
No word of support for those fighting in Maine and no news. We've heard
this speech before and nearly a year into his administration, nothing has
changed. This speech brought us nothing new. And I give it an 'F.'"
-
- Such discontent may reveal that Obama is not quite the
unquestioning servant of the homosexual lobby most Christians/conservatives
believe. In fact, it shows Obama is already quite capable of disappointing
the gay lobby. This means he could disappoint them again by vetoing the
defense appropriations bill, with hate bill attached if public pressure
on him is overwhelming.
-
- Beneath the surface lies a struggle between Obama and
his cantankerous Democrat Congress that lovers of freedom can exploit.
After hate bill approval in the House last Thursday, national media was
aware that the decision by the House to include F-35 engine funding was
a slap in the face of the President. One editorial acknowledged that such
disobedience sent a clear message to the President that Congress, not the
President, wants to set the legislative agenda.
-
- Criticized this past week for lacking vision and resolve
in Afghanistan, and needing billions more in funding for this no-win war,
could Pres. Obama, encouraged by massive email protest, actually make use
of a veto of the defense bill as his way of letting Congress know who really
runs America; that he is a president who means what he said when, in the
VFW convention in Phoenix this summer, he forbade F-35 engine funding?
-
- The least these rumblings from the homosexual lobby should
do is cause us to question the belief that Obama will act in servile obedience
to the gay lobby. After all, despite everything else Obama may be, he is
a politician a cunning political animal of the highest order. His
first loyalty is to his own political survival, credibility and advancement.
-
- The American people must impress on him as never before
this week that there is no question where his best interests lie
in keeping his veto promise and not further alienating the values and morals
of heartland America.
-
- Since the Senate still has not passed the national defense/hate
bill, there is now a real possibility that they will not be on the President's
desk this week. Take advantage of this reprieve and send your two email
messages to Obama. Repeat these messages daily until the hate bill is
vetoed. Tell Obama:
-
- Mr. President, I will vote out Democrats at midterms
if you sign the freedom-destroying federal hate crimes bill.
-
- Mr. President, I expect you to keep your promise to veto
any military authorization bill that wastes $100 billion of taxpayers'
money on unnecessary F-35 jet engines.
-
- Send these two messages in separate emails. You may
cut and paste them in at <http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/>www.whitehouse.gov/contact.
-
- By keeping his word, Obama and his fellow Democrats can
best prepare for judgment day mid-term elections next year.
