Obama -- the pro-'gay' candidate

Peter LaBarbera, founder of Republicans for Family Values, says a recent letter from the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee to a homosexual activist group confirms the extremism of his positions.
"He advocates the full repeal of DOMA, which goes farther than Hillary Clinton, who only recommended repealing part of the Defense of Marriage Act," note LaBarbera. "He's talking about opening up the military to homosexuality in a time of war. He's talking about 'gay' adoption -- putting children in homes that are intentionally fatherless or intentionally motherless, and using the White House bully pulpit to do that."

Sen. Barack Obama has clearly demonstrated
his full support for all aspects of the homosexual agenda.
On August 1, Obama responded to an inquiry from the pro-homosexual Family Equality Council, pledging in a letter [PDF] his support for "LGBT families" -- lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender. He also congratulated homosexual couples that have recently "married" in California and Massachusetts.
According to LaBarbera, "that makes Obama...the first presidential candidate to actually support homosexual marriage. When you're congratulating homosexuals for their supposed marriage, that's being for and celebrating homosexual marriage," he emphasizes.
LaBarbera hopes Obama's candor about his positions will awaken conservatives who may be considering sitting out the November elections.
Says LaBarbera: "I think the central question of this election is this: Can Barack Obama take these extremely radical, pro-homosexual positions and, yet, still pull the wool over the eyes of enough American Evangelicals to win the election?"
