First, Obama stated that he believes that marriage is between a man and a woman.

Then Obama had Rick Warren give the invocation at the Inauguration.

After that, there was the brief in support of DOMA.

Let's not forget the ever evolving position on repealing DADT.

And now he's appointed someone for the Supreme Court who stated that "There is no federal constitutional right to same-sex marriage".

Now.  As I've been told over and over and over and over again by those who claim to know such things, all of those positions are homophobic.  Thus, by that logic, Obama is a homophobe. 

There are some gay rights* organizations that have been outspoken about these things.  But the general Left certainly isn't out there shrieking for Obama to be run out of public life for those positions.

Yes, yes, I know, pointing out the hypocrisy on this is machinegunning fish in a barrel.  But it enrages me that those who deny my very existence as a queer conservative are the first people who lined up to vote for a man whose positions, if held by a Republican, would be considered morally indefensible.  It's so grand to see people cling to actual principles and beliefs. 


*I believe I've made my loathing of the term "gay rights" well known.  I repeat, the only gay right I want is the right to not be killed for being queer.
