Barack Obama Needs to Admit It-He Supports Same-Sex 'Marriage'
Research by FRC Action into Obama's statements on same-sex "marriage," reported today in an op-ed by Peter Sprigg on our website, confirms that although presumptive Democratic nominee Barack Obama claims to oppose same-sex "marriage," what he "truly feels" is support for radically re-defining marriage. Obama supports granting 100% of the legal rights and benefits of marriage to homosexual couples; opposes virtually any legal means available of defining marriage as the union of a man and a woman (calling marriage amendments "divisive and discriminatory"); "respects" courts that unilaterally overturn the democratically determined definition of marriage; compares legalizing same-sex "marriage" with legalizing interracial marriage; and "congratulates" homosexual couples who have entered into legally-recognized civil marriages. This is the definition of a supporter, not an opponent, of same-sex "marriage."
