Grooms

I have no doubt that President Barack Obama is not a Muslim who was born in Kenya and is secretly an avowed Marxist who, as a real life Manchurian Candidate, is committed to the overthrow of the United States of America.

There! Now that I’ve deleted this morning’s emails I can tell you something I do believe about the president: evidently, he has never met a gay person in his life.

I have come to that conclusion after going back over his past comments concerning his position on gay marriage. I mean, that’s really not something that most people are ambivalent about. But in the last 3.5 years, he has been unalterably opposed to gay marriage, but supportive of what he called “a strong civil union.”

I think that’s marriage light, a virgin Mai Tai, a plain cheese pizza.

He has been at the forefront of what’s called the Domestic Partners and Obligations Act — everything but the “M” word. Until yesterday when he became the first U.S. president to support same-sex marriage.

Finally, he can get great seats for “La Cage Aux Folles.”
