“President Obama Wants To Appease The Gays”

The ReadyWriter

By not addressing this whole gay marriage issue!

Obama said in January that he is still wrestling with whether gay couples should have the right to marry. He said his feelings on the issue continue to evolve but he still believes in allowing strong civil unions.

The Justice Department announced Wednesday that, at Obama’s direction, it would not defend the Defense of Marriage Act in a court case where it’s being challenged.

Spokesman Jay Carney said Obama has always opposed the Defense of Marriage Act as “unnecessary and unfair.” But Carney said there’s no change to how Obama views gay marriage itself.

The President is displaying his compromising spirit on this issue, all because he’s looking to be re-elected in 2012. He’s compromising his integrity by staying quiet on his position regarding gay/same-sex marriage…

The one thing I respected about former President Bush, he stated he was against gay marriage and the lifestyle of homosexuality and didn’t give a damn what people thought about his moral position on the subject.

“Vatican Advisor Says Unmarried Gov. Should Be Rebuked”

The ReadyWriter

It’s no secret that newly elected Gov. Cuomo is shacking up with his girlfriend Sandra Lee, host of the Food Network program “Semi-Homemade Cooking With Sandra Lee.”

And although shacking-up may be the modern-day shortcut, close to masking a solid committment, the vatican adviser Edward Peters says “Cuomo has no business taking communion.”

He told CNSNews that Cuomo, who supports abortion and gay marriage and who is currently shacked up, should be denied Communion if he tries to take the sacrament again “as long as he persists in such conduct.”

Peters zeroed in on the Mass, that Cuomo attended a day after his Jan. 1 inauguration. He received Communion from Bishop Howard Hubbard at the Mass and shouldn’t have, said the advisor.

Bishop Howard Hubbard then praised the Governor for his success, accolades that Peters said “the bishop was wrong for doing so.”

Hubbard’s remarks, he said, constituted “a failure in pastoral care,” largely for what he “did not say, than for what he did say.”

Thank God somebody had the moral compass to address the Governor’s lifestyle.

In a public position such as his, having a live-in girlfriend does not exemplify that of an upstanding leader, nor does it set a good example for his three young daughters from his previous marriage.

“Rush Limbaugh Calls Michelle Obama A Hypocrite”

The ReadyWriter

Rush Limbaugh criticized Michelle Obama’s dinner choice while the first lady dined with her daughters at a ski resort in Colorado over the weekend.

According to the Vail Daily, the first lady ate a braised ancho-chile short rib with hominy wild mushrooms and sautéed kale. She also began the meal with a pickled pumpkin salad with arugula.

Of course the president’s critics are insulting the first lady at every chance, simply because she is encouraging americans to make better and healthier food choices for their children and family.

Limbaugh said, the first lady’s choices went against her emphasis on promoting nutrition and exercise.

“The problem is, and dare I say this, it doesn’t look like Michelle Obama follows her own nutritional, dietary advice,”

“We hear that she’s out eating ribs at 1,500 calories a serving with 141 grams of fat per serving … I’m trying to say that our First Lady does not project the image of women that you might see on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue or of a woman Alex Rodriguez might date every six months or what have you.”

“She’s a hypocrite. Leaders are supposed to be leaders. If we’re supposed to go out and eat nothing, if we’re supposed to eat roots and berries and tree bark, show us how,” he ranted on.

Limbaugh’s comments were ridiculous and unrealistic, everyone goes off the health wagon and splurge a little once in a while; he was just looking for the opportunity to insult our first lady.

First lady Michelle Obama, like alot of other black women are thick and curvacious, we are not all pencil thin. However, first lady Michelle exemplifies a confident black woman, who is extremely ‘comfortable in the hips that she’s in’.

So the Obama haters, need to back-up off her and stop examining her plate!

“Is This Michelle Obama Cartoon Racist?”

The ReadyWriter

The cartoon, released on Andrew Breitbart’s Big Government site last weekend, depicts Michelle Obama as overweight and chowing down on a bunch of hamburgers while she talks about her campaign to promote healthy eating.

Our President, Barack Obama is drawn with huge, outsized ears and tells her, that her campaign is going to hurt his re-election efforts. “Shut up and pass the bacon!” she replies.

Lawrence O’Donnell condemned the controversial cartoon of Michelle Obama, calling it a “racist obscenity” O’Donnell would only show one panel of the cartoon, and not show the rest of it.

“Because it is a racist obscenity.” In his view, President Obama was depicted “in a half man, half animal form, with ears that don’t exist in the homo sapien species.”

Are we being too sensitive on this subject? Or are President Obama’s critics being blatantly disrespectful??

🙂 Sorry for the late post people, my day is running into overtime.

“Clarence Thomas Hasn’t Said Shit In 5 Years”

The ReadyWriter

No I’m not talking about the Grammy awards this morning but instead how Justice Clarence Thomas has managed to keep quiet in the last 5 years.

According to the New York Times when the Supreme Court returns from its midwinter break and hears arguments in two criminal cases, it will have been five years since Justice Clarence Thomas has spoken during a court argument.

Justice Thomas’s epic silence on the bench is just one part of his enigmatic and contradictory persona. He is guarded in public but gregarious in private.

He avoids elite universities but speaks frequently to students at regional and religious schools. In those settings, he rarely dwells on legal topics but is happy to discuss a favorite movie, like “Saving Private Ryan.”

Justice Thomas has given various and shifting reasons for declining to participate in oral arguments, the court’s most public ceremony; stating that, “he is self-conscious about the way he speaks.”

In his memoir, “My Grandfather’s Son,” he wrote “that he had been teased about the dialect he grew up speaking in rural Georgia.” “He never asked questions in college or law school and was intimidated by some fellow students.”

A late pastor of mine once said, “When you don’t want people to know how dumb or ignorant you are, you just don’t open your mouth, you keep silent”.
