Buyer's Remorse

 

The buyer's remorse is setting in amoung the LGBT community.

It's a pretty good statement, other than the inexplicable fact that they didn't mention Obama comparing gay marriage to incest and pederasty, which is arguably the most offensive part of the entire brief.

-- Gay groups decry Obama defense of DOMA

Well, no, it isn't inexplicable. These folks are still blinded by all that hopie-changie, heal the planet, gumdrops and lollypops and unicorn farts for all rhetoric we got for a year from The One. It's that they haven't completely assimilated the lesson they've just been taught. Others already have.

This discussion has come up before, but it's hitting the news wires again as longtime LGBT rights activist Cleve Jones announced again that there are plans for a march on October 11 to demand that Congress address equal rights for LGBTs.

-- Does A March on Washington Make Sense Now? (Pam's House Blend)

Tell you what Pam: may be join forces with conservatives and have a combined LGBT march and "tea party"? Wouldn't that be awesome?

I told you so. I told you over a year ago. That Pres. Oasshole would come to the defense of the DOMA comes as ZERO surprise to me.

And there's another one just waiting in the wings: The Rev. James Meeks. This one ought to prove real popular with the LGBT community. They're just about the only ones left that Mr. Hopechange hasn't pissed off yet ("yet" being the operative word here). When is this shoe going to drop as well? What is it with these assholes anyway? Are they trying to ruin "their" candidate's chances?

It's not like you couldn't see this one coming from a dozen parsecs away. Didn't he deliberately snub a gay pride celebration in his hometown of Chicago? Didn't he claim as a "spiritual mentor" (the only one he didn't throw under the bus) a raging homophobe?

Yet, all over the leftie blogosphere that's now seething with righteous anger and lots of talk of "betrayal" they do seem surprised. You would have gotten a better deal from Ron Paul. Too bad you didn't think of that last March when your vote for Paul in the GOP primaries might have made a difference. Too bad you didn't think of that last November when you could have voted McCain, and still have gotten a better deal, or, at worst, been no worse off.

First he, a black man just one goddamned generation removed from Brown v. The Board of Education daring to use the phrase "separate but equal" in reference to gay marriage, then his pussying out on clapping Bush in irons and pillorying him in front of the White House, and now this.

-- What the FUCK, Obama

If you had been paying attention, you would know that Barack Obama is a black man for whom Brown v. Board of Education would have made no difference whatsoever. His upbringing was one of privilege, private academies, and international jet-setting. Even during the darkest days of Jim Crow, the colour green outweighed the colour black. He was not one of the "little guys", not then, not now. He doesn't give a rat's ass about you, me, the LGBT community, or any one else who is not paying the bills.

And I have to turn to DICK FUCKING CHENEY for some governmental recognition, as unofficial and possibly coerced as it was, that the love I practice isn't a great sin against The United States of Jesus. Dick Cheney makes Richard Nixon look like Rob Blagojevich in comparison and I hear more affirming things out of him, the goddamned devil himself, perpetually snarling like the Beast that Revelation's Whore rides, war profiteer and waster of men's lives, than a goddamned black president.

-- What the FUCK, Obama

And now you know why we haven't heard so much as a peep from George W. Bush in six months. GWB knows that his star is rising without his having to do a thing when you have lefties saying things like this.

You do not get invited to Billionaire's Row, and pal around with George Soros (on the right, in bright blue shirt) unless you are connected.

Just One of the Guys

You do not get the Corporate MsM fawning all over you like a gaggle of silly school girls unless you are firmly in Corporate America's hip pocket.

The buyer's remorse is setting in big time within the LGBT community. Who's next?

I told you the "hope" was false.

I told you that the "change" was just more of the same old shit.

Oh well, at least I voted for McCain/Palin.
