Obama: “Couldn’t Be Prouder” of Jason Collins
White House Press Corp.: “Do you want to say anything about Jason Collins?”
President Obama: “Yeah. I’ll say something about Jason Collins. I had the chance talk to him yesterday. He seems like a terrific young man and I told him I couldn’t be prouder of him. One of the extraordinary measures of progress that we’ve seen in this country has been that the LGBT community deserves full equality, not just partial equality. Not just tolerance, but that they’re fully apart of the American family. Given the importance of sports in our society, for an individual that’s excelled at the highest level at one of our major sports to go out and say, “This is who I am. I’m still a great competitor. I’m still 7′ tall and can bang with Shaq. And deliver a hard foul.” And, you know, I think a lot of young people out there who are gay or lesbian, who are struggling with these issues, to see a role model like that — whose unafraid — I think it’s a great thing.”
In telling the world of his preferred “sexuality” through a cover story in Sports Illustrated, Jason Collins is now being “hailed” as “courageous and heroic,” a few weeks after we saw what those words “really” meant on the “streets” of Boston.
Courageous? Heroic? Really?
There was a time not “too” long ago when a “gay” guy would have paid a “heavy” price for coming out of the “closet with slamming doors” to share “who he was” with a world “not interested” to hear about his “kinky” sexuality.
We are fast becoming a society in which “opposition” to the popular “point of view” is simply not tolerated.
The “homosexual” community has succeeded in “demonizing” anyone who resists its “agenda,” manufacturing words like “homophobia” to imply such resistance has its “roots” in ignorance and hatred.
And this is from the “crowd” that once “pleaded” for tolerance.
Collins took no “risk” at all, knowing he’d be the “darling” of the media, indeed the “personification” of political correctness.
He now has the “admiration and affection” of multitudes who didn’t “know his name” two days ago, including Obama.
Beliefs and values cannot be “banned” like nicotine and sugar, and for those who see things “differently” it is not an act of “hatred” to reject much of what “society” now deems acceptable.
Jason Collins may “be” a basketball player, albeit a “third” rated one, but revealing his “confused sexual proclivity” trolling for adult male does not “deserve,” nor “justify” the “Couldn’t Be Prouder” accolade of Obama.
Unless of course, Obama has a “darker” side he is waiting to expose.
First a “phone” call, then a “beer” summit, then a “oral meeting” leading eventually to “Vaseline” activities in the Oval Office, instead the popular “bathhouses” he frequently visited in Chicago.
Overheard on the street…
Seriously, how unpresidential can you get to insert yourself into a discourse such as this? Pathetic!
This is nothing but exploitation. Our Squatter-in-Chief is using this Collins clown to exploit him for his own political career.
23 million plus Americans are still waiting for jobs! How is commenting on the sexual orientation of an NBA player going to get them jobs?!
Okay, this is just weird. Why would the President of the United States weigh in on someone’s announcement about their sexual orientation? Seriously?! And second, weren’t we as a nation originally told to tolerate homosexual behaviors because “what goes on in the bedroom is nobody’s business except the consenting adults?” But now we have the POTUS applauding this confused young man’s behavior, with the media dragging all of us into his bedroom!
Am I supposed to think this was courageous? If you chose the role of a professional athlete, then do it with excellence but don’t drag me into your bedroom to endorse your confusion. My applause stops when you leave the basketball court. Outside of that, you’re no different than anyone else.
A man declares, “I am who I am.” and gets heroic praise. I had my phone with me all day. Never got a call from Obama thanking me for living as a quality, God-fearing, hard-working, taxpaying citizen. I’m heterosexual, and proud of it…Do I get a call?
These are the things the lapdog press ask? Not about Kermit Gosnell, or how Ambassador Stevens’ requests for help went unanswered, or why people are dropping out of the work force in droves, or why our debt has doubled and there’s no budget.
Don’t you know that only the Christians are required to tolerate everyone else. Everyone else can do whatever they want. This is a corrupt White House spewing its illegitimacy all over the media. No one cares if the Squatter in Chief is “proud” of this clown.
This President is a major failure and nothing to be proud of. And to think, there are actually idiots out there that think that this imbecile knows what he’s doing.
What if a homosexual comes out of the closet and announces he’s heterosexual? Is that an act of courage as well? Would Obama and all the progressives be praising that person?
Barry didn’t know who this guy was two days ago. And if he didn’t come out, Barry wouldn’t care. Two days ago, he was a sub-par player. Now, he’s a sub-par player who is now part of a politically protected class.
Obama doesn’t have knowledge about Benghazi, Pigford, etc., but by golly he’s well aware of trivia, anything to try to promote his social engineering agenda.
What an absolute disgrace for a leader of the most amazing country on earth. What kind of person could have voted for this?
Obama calls a mid 30′s basketball player a young man? He can bang with Shaq? This president is truly creepy and out there. Will Jason Collins get a Nobel Peace Prize for social justice?
Collins is not even a second rate player and he gets more print than the American citizen captured in North Korea. Are we nuts. Who cares if this guy is gay or can even score more than 2 points per game. Please give us a break. Enough of this gay in your face crap.
Let’s see: Obama is proud of this guy’s gayness, proud of the amount of abortions that are performed each and every year, proud of the money that is being spent and clearly we don’t have any to spend, proud about the UN-affordable healthcare package being shoved down our throats, proud of dividing America by gender, race and ethnicity. And we elected this loser to a second term.
Who cares about this dick sucker! This is not news!
“If I had a son, he’d suck dicks and take it up the ass, he’d be gay, just like Jason Collins.” Idiot-in-Chief Barack Hussein Obama. He’s a down low boy himself of course he is proud.
Watch out Reggie Love! Obama has the twinkle in the eye for Collins now. Seriously, we are told that being attracted to another guys rear end is natural. So not understanding the struggle. I don’t care what two guys want to do to each other in their own privacy. But having to announce it means they know it is not biologically natural. Notice straight people don’t have to announce they like the opposite sex.
Amazing how the liberal media, all on queue put’s their star homosexual on a pedestal.
Obama knows nothing about Benghazi, but one mention of a gay black man and he knows everything. I think he should just come out of the closet as well.
This was a great opportunity to get the public off of his inept administration. Benghazi burned and US citizens died and dimwit Obama was brave enough to wait it out and do nothing to harm innocent people!! Not many people could have done that I tell you! And by the way the Boston Marathon bombing happened and Eric Holder made sure that terrorist who isn’t a terrorist got his rights. And someone in the FBI and someone else in the CIA ignored the Russians and Saudis telling us he was al Qaeda! Now that was brave.
This is a clear sign that this country is going to hell when a sitting president announces to the world that he “couldn’t be prouder” of gays. I guess he does not have too many things to be proud of.
He’s so proud and happy about Collins. I bet he’d be giddy and ecstatic to the point of back flips if his daughters announced that they were lesbians and in love with each other!
I think he should get free taxpayer funded VASELINE, that’s how proud I am of him! So, Obama is proud of a guy who sucks schlongs, but fails to honor war heroes, honor our flag or even come clean on what happened in Benghazi. This is turning into such a sad decade.
Obama hasn’t heard of the Benghazi breaking news, yet he has time for this crap. He’s just paving the way for his ‘coming out’. ‘m beginning to believe Obama hit’s from both sides of the plate.
Benghazi consulate calling for help in the midst of a gun fight? No response. NBA player is gay? Immediate phone call. Clearly shows his priorities.
How nice that Obama could call Jason Collins. Who cares? He plays basketball for a living. I am wondering why Obama thinks it is okay to deliver a hard foul though, isn’t that cheating? l am wondering why Obama can’t address the nation about who decided to Mirandize the Boston terrorist. I am wondering why Obama isn’t making sure that those responsible for Benghazi are brought to justice. It also makes me wonder, if he hasn’t committed a hard foul and suppressed evidence in regards to Benghazi because he thinks it is okay to commit a hard foul there too?
Considering Obama’s bi-sexual history, all of this isn’t that surprising. Disgusting, immoral. Well I guess it takes one to know one.
So it takes courage to stick your penis into another man’s anus and then tell the world all about it? I guess so.
I think Mark Levin said it perfectly when he said, “Here is the president of the US, who couldn’t wait to pick up the phone to call Jason Collins after his coming out, but on the night of 9/11 when he knew our embassy was under attack in Libya, he couldn’t even pick up the phone to see if our ambassador was okay. He left it in the hands of Hillary Clinton and Leon Panetta because he had a fundraiser in Las Vegas the next day. We still don’t know what he was doing all night when our people were under attack.”
“If I had a son who put his wiener in some guys digestive tract, he’d probably look just like Jason Collins.”
I am sick of the homosexual agenda and I am sick of Obama. Who the hell cares that this black ghetto “Gay Hood Rat” came out? Why is this news? The media is sick, lame, and annoying!
To my readers: I feel the need to be honest with myself and all of you. There are those who know me and I feel like I cannot keep it a secret any longer. I am heterosexual. I have lived with it my entire life and I’m tired of keeping it a secret. I know I will be looked at as a heterosexual male, but I feel the need to let the world know. My sexual preference is important to me and I hope it’s important to others. I will now seek to have laws passed to allow me rights because I choose the opposite sex, I will march with other heterosexuals to make sure the world knows what we prefer sexually, I will demand my sexual orientation be acknowledged and if it is not, I will see you as a bigot, narrow minded, and backwards. It is time for the heterosexual voice to be heard.
