The Log Cabin Republicans’ R. Clarke Cooper was quick to try to discredit Obama’s announcement, calling it “cold comfort” and “offensive and callous” in the wake of the defeat in North Carolina yesterday. “This administration has manipulated LGBT families for political gain as much as anybody, and after his campaign’s ridiculous contortions to deny support for marriage equality this week he does not deserve praise for an announcement that comes a day late and a dollar short,” Cooper said. That's pretty scathing.

Jayisspecial posted:If Obama had come out as a show of support in NC, not only would the amendment have still passed, but it would look like he was on the wrong side of the people. The GOP would have had a field day lambasting him as a loser on the issue. How could that have ever been a net gain? You know what, I'll just leave the Log Cabin statement be, it says enough.

Amused to Death posted:Well, Rick Santorum more than once said in Netherlands, old people are euthanized to save money for the GOVERNMENT RUN health care system. When called out on this by a Dutch journalist, his spokesmen said regardless of facts it was his gut feeling that the Dutch kill their old people Rick Santorum will run for President again and again, and I have this terrible fear he'll win some day.

Pretty great reading Statesman comments essentially saying "Get over it" I remember I read so many conservative kids in the school paper in 2006 wrote editorials that were essentially "get over it gays".

Blue Star posted:The idea that Christian extremists are going to become even more aggressive and openly hostile once marriage equality becomes the norm is loving scary. Another thing I've heard is that bigots will start concentrating their attacks on transgendered people, since trans folks are starting to become more visible. Tucker Carlson already started the "Transgender are the sacred cows of the left" insisting that SNL insult transgender bathrooms in order to be allowed to continue in his eyes to be in touch with humor.

Using the bible to defend gays, prostitutes, and being non-white is seen as sacrilegious, and doesn't really convince fundies of much.

MsJoelBoxer posted:I remember when people made a huge deal over Michael Sam kissing his boyfriend on television when he was drafted into the NFL. There were a great number of sportswriters and fans who implied or outright said that he did it for attention or shock value. But how many other players on draft day hug or kiss a girlfriend without anyone even noticing? All he did was embrace the person he loved. Nope, must be just trying to stick it to those straights! Much of the anger from NFL players commenting on Twitter was that it was inappropriate because "children watch this!"
