    Obama’s Persuasive Powers on Gay Marriage Manifest in Maryland

    When President Obama endorsed gay marriage earlier this month, the media grappled with two basic political questions: Was his personal “evolution” a case of  a politician transparently following a national trend toward accepting same-sex unions (accelerated, perhaps, by his chatty number two), and would it hurt his re-election chances by alienating socially conservative voters like black churchgoers? Sure, there was a recognition that it marked a gratifying moment for gay marriage advocates—as well as some grumbling about the President’s view that it remains a state issue, not a federal one. But by and large, there were few suggestions that one man, even the President, would shift public opinion on the issue or affect public policy. Based on a new Public Policy Polling survey out of Maryland, it seems this possibility was underestimated.

    Did you hear that that person will be sentenced 20 years to life – with no parole – on just that one count?
    .
    And that it was done with evidence having to be tossed because it was gained through torture?
    .
    And it was done in a legitimate trial with no security issues?
    .
    [And]:

    As Colin Powell noted earlier this year, “In eight years the military commissions have put three people on trial. Two of them served relatively short sentences and are free. One guy is in jail. Meanwhile, the federal courts — our Article III, regular legal court system — has put dozens of terrorists in jail and they’re fully capable of doing it.”

    Didja hear about all that, textee? Didja?
    .
    Nah, I’m sure it’s another vast conspiracy created by the editors of The Ladies’ Home Journal.

    That is Obama. This is his polygamous Muslim wife and family pictured with him. Wait for the Fox Propaganda Network to break with the news.
