Prof. Robert George, who is a founding Chairman of NOM's board, asks a great question today on National Review Online: “Obama on Marriage: Bigot or Liar?”
Like Sherlock Holmes’s dog that didn’t bark in the night, liberals have been strangely silent about Obama’s comments on marriage.
It has become a matter of orthodoxy among progressives that those who believe that marriage is properly defined as the union of one man and one woman are guilty of bigotry.
There is a problem, however: Barack Obama has assured voters that he believes marriage to be the union of one man and one woman — not two men, two women, or some combination of more than two people. As Donald Trump rather pointedly noted after the Miss U.S.A. pageant, President Obama’s position on the definition of marriage is identical to the position stated by California beauty queen Carrie Prejean.
So what do progressives think? Has the president embraced bigotry? Or has he lied to the American people about his position on what marriage is and how it should be defined?"

I don't think that obama knows what hes talking about. It don't matter what the subject is. Marriage is and always will be between a man and a woman. That is the only way that God can bless the union. If He would have wanted it any other way, He would have set it up that way. I think that obama is lying to everyone. Especially those on the southern coast.
It is a sign of the level of social and institutional decadence in any society, that anyone would seek to entertain a redefinition of marriage. Even in ungodly kingdoms, there is no confusion as to the definition of marriage as being between man and woman. We could even learn from animals as well. Let us make no mistake about it, the more upright men sit back and allow the vocal but insignificant morally bankrupt people dictate morality, the more the coming generations will be confused as to what real morality is. The society must watch out for leaders who would compromise at anything just for political expediency.
