Comments on: Biden’s Macacca Moment: Obama Clean http://liberalvaluesblog.com/?p=986 Defending Liberty and Enlightened Thought Tue, 09 Feb 2010 20:22:22 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc hourly 1 By: Keats http://liberalvaluesblog.com/?p=986&cpage=1#comment-24011 Keats Thu, 01 Feb 2007 11:24:29 +0000 http://liberalvaluesblog.com/?p=986#comment-24011 When an African-American Harvard educated civil rights lawyer preaches righteous sermons about respecting the doctrine of separation of church and state but then offers only a religious rationale for denying 'fundamental' civil rights the cognitive dissonance should assail the ears of anyone with even a mere thimble full of legal knowledge. Enough is enough. This sham and travesty have gone too far. "If a civil rights lawyer walked into court and argued that fundamental civil rights should be denied solely for metaphysical reasons one could fairly wonder if he were a charlatan who found his law degree in a box of Cracker Jack. Legally, Obama's position on civil marriage is intellectual rubbish. Audacity indeed!" To read the entire article see "Untangling Barack Obama's audacious mumbo jumbo," by John P. Mortimer, Bay Area Reporter 11/16/2006 at http://ebar.com/common/inc/article_print.php?sec=guest_op&article=73 . Obama, this so called "civil rights lawyer" is the ONLY Democratic candidate who has opposed marriage equality for purely religious reasons. And notice that not one lawyer/lawmaker has provided one LEGAL reason for denying this civil right. Is it really asking too much of lawyers and lawmakers to provide LEGAL reasons for denying civil rights? It's not so much about "marriage" as it is about punching a big hole in the wall that separates Church and State.

He approved Gonzales as AG and admitted he had serious reservations. Reservations are what you make for dinner; not approve appointments you are not happy with. Go away joe. Your Wal-Mart greeter job waits for you. With Biden, who knows….
