Obama’s Gay-Rights Hypocrisy

The president wags his finger at Putin while kowtowing to Islamic leaders.
ByAndrew C. McCarthy August 14, 2013
‘What,” Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani was asked, “is [Islam’s] judgment on sodomy and lesbianism?”  “Forbidden,” he curtly pronounced. “Those involved in the act should be punished. In fact, sodomites should be killed in the worst manner possible.”
So what does Barack Obama have to say about that?
Cynically mounting his high horse last week in the cozy confines of Jay Leno’s late-night TV comedy program — a venue popular with his ill-informed admirers, one where hypocrisy won’t be noticed, much less challenged — the president declaimed, “I have no patience for countries that try to treat gays or lesbians or transgender persons in ways that intimidate or are harmful to them.”
This was his purported human-rights rationale for canceling a summit meeting with Russian president Vladimir Putin, who in June signed an anti-gay law banning “propaganda of nontraditional sexual relations.” Obama told Leno that “making sure people are treated fairly and justly” is a “precept that’s not unique to America” and “should apply everywhere.”

My Take- And we should all be surprised why? The left has absolutely no moral foundation. Their morality is a morality of expediency. If it became important to abandon any issue they now support to gain power it would be done with such swiftness you would think they were the color guard in a military parade, all the while condemning those who were consistent in their morality the whole time. The issue regarding race is a perfect example. It was the Republicans that passed the civil rights bills, and the Democrats who resisted those efforts. I do wish more people read a history book once in a while. So who were and still are the racists?
