I do wonder though, do you also put Obama in the category of morons who oppose it? like you did with miss Cali and Limbaugh? if not, what makes the other two (limbaugh and miss cali) morons? what are their common traits, other than opposition to gay marriage that, make them morons?
It's not like the gays are thrilled with Obama at the moment. Trust me, there's plenty of outrage out there from DADT to DOMA to the fact that he's starting to look like he put a big lie over on everyone who took him at his word on gay rights.

The difference is that Obama believes in Civil Unions and has at least at one point promised to work to overturn DOMA, which would in turn make it possible to validate gay marriages performed at state level changing the HUGE penalties paid by gay couples on things like health insurance, etc.

Ms. CA on the other hand, aligned herself with NOM recently...and they are against any recognition at all for gay couples.

While neither is perfect, you've got to be able to see the difference. I can't speak for where Limbaugh stands on the issue, and Obama will be no friend of mine on this issue if he continues to just pay lip service where applicable. Time will tell on that one.

Either way, Ms. CA is really nothing more than a less entertaining version of the infamous youtube queen Ms. South Carolina.
