Obama's slap in the face to the gay community

A few days before November 4th, the evangelical/right wing proponents of Proposition 8 (the anti-gay marriage ballot initiative) widely broadcast President Elect Obama's words on the issue of gay marriage to Californian's. Although Obama was against Proposition 8 and supports civil unions for same sex couples, he does not support gay marriage  and has said on many occasions that he believes marriage is appropriate only between a man and a woman.

So the liberal and generally LBGT supportive Obama's words were used against the gay community....and likely led to the victory of Proposition 8....a major step back for equal rights.

I am extremely dissapointed by the message President Elect Obama sent to gay American's this week by picking Rick Warren for the invocation at the Presidential inaugration in January. While I totally understand and agree with listening to all sides of a debate....and speaking politely to those who disagree with you, the Rick Warren selection shows the gay community that their families don't matter right now.

Rick Warren compares gay marriage to pedophilia, marriage between siblings and polygamy....

I'm dissapointed in President Elect Obama.....and won't be tuning into the invocation or the inaugration. I'd rather just sit and meditate by myself.
