Barack Obama and Miss America Agree











So Miss America (Carrie Prejean) and Barack Obama have the same view on gay marriage. Anyone who didn't already know this hasn't been paying attention these last few years. Perhaps those who now exhibit outrage at the beliefs of this relatively inoffensive young girl thought that BHO was just lying, pandering to those who also didn't believe in gay marriage. News flash for y'all: he wasn't lying. BHO doesn't believe in gay marriage. He has made no move to recind "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," although with just his signature he could end enforcement of the policy. You got what you voted for.
Myself, I'm all for letting anyone get married who wants to. A man to a woman, a man to a man, a woman to a man, two men to a woman, three women to each other, I don't really care. I'm also all in favor of letting "practicing" and openly gay people serve unfettered military careers. Believing otherwise isn't compatible with a philosophy that values freedom and liberty. However in a free nation everyone should also be allowed to have their own opinions, even Miss America. Even BHO.
