I agree with the commenter who felt that very little that Obama is doing is naive. Not staying in the church while he did, nor leaving it when he did. As a gay man, I followed the Donnie McClurkin flap with more than casual interest. The CW was that BO was blindsided by McClurkin's ex-gay hooey, but couldn't, at the last minute, cancel him for fear of losing face in the (South Carolina) black co...
John Cloud, TIME magazine's in-house gay activist, attacked Obama supporter Donnie McClurkin over McClurkin's public testimony that he overcame homosexuality through prayer. In perhaps the only negative piece in the mainstream media on the California Supreme Court's decision legalizing "gay marriage," Cloud whines that it's not enough. In his Viewpoint column, " What the California Gay Ruling Won't...
I can't get past Obama inviting Donnie McClurkin on his swing throug the south tour. I can't swallow his alliance with an avowed "ex-gay" determined to convert/heal me from my sexual orientation. It is a very personal issue for me. That being said, Obama has an interesting interview with The Advocate . Everyone should follow the link and read it. Now The Advocate isn't the same thing as real life...
Preachers, pastors, priests and the like have played quite a role this political season. Just ask Barack Obama - the Democratic presidential hopeful had to defend his ties to both Donnie McClurkin and Jeremiah Wright. Republican John McCain, meanwhile, had a short-lived shit storm over Thomas Hagee, the Catholic bashing preacher man who endorsed the [...]
Barack Obama’s spiritual supporters keep causing him headaches! First, we had Donnie McClurkin, the man who nearly derailed the Senator’s mega church campaign. Then came Jeremiah Wright, Obama’s preacher who damned the United States and spurred that revolutionary race speech. And now Fox’s ire-inducing Sean Hannity & Alan Colmes have turned their attention to another Obama [...]
One would think that after the Obama drama with the anti-gay gospel singer Donnie McClurkin, Senator Obama would take special care to not give any open support to bigoted religious zealots. Unfortunately, that is almost an impossible task when...
The hypocrisy of the gay left never ceases to amaze me. Just yesterday, I wondered at the eagerness of gay activists to support Barack Obama although he had welcomed the support of anti-gay singer Donnie McClurkin. Later, I read that Dave Noble, Director of Policy & Government Affairs for National Gay and Lesbian Task Force [...]
It looks like I'm not the only one who finds it hypocritical that Senator Obama – who last summer openly courted and toured with the longtime antigay bigot Donnie McClurkin – would now at the end of the campaign...
Yesterday in my post about the slippery slope between Louis Farrakhan and Donnie McClurkin, I noted that John McCain appeared on stage this week to accept the endorsement of Pastor John Hagee of the Christian Zionist Movement, who has said...
I missed the debate last night (bad day) but watched numerous clips on TV. Things are getting testier and testier as the stakes increase. I have problems with both these candidates, issues with Obama on health care and Donnie McClurkin and Hillary on Iraq, lobbyist contributions and integrity. I do think Barack mischaracterized her health care plan but I believe she's fair game on NAFTA. She's the...
I'm surprised no one has posted about this yet: Clinton swept the gay vote in California . Gays and lesbians voted for Clinton over Obama by a two-to-one margin. JoeMyGod wonders if it might be the Donnie McClurkin Effect .
As expected, yesterday's Super Tuesday primary did little to reveal a clear Democratic frontrunner. Hillary Clinton took eight states including the biggest: California and New York. Barack Obama took 13 states, including Illinois, his home state. CLINTON: AR, AZ, CA, MA, NY, NJ, OK, TN OBAMA: AK, AL, CT, CO, DE, GA, ID, IL, KS, MN, MO, ND, UT Clinton's big win in California came via women,
A self-described queer news junkie gets a call from the Obama campaign: Caller: “Oh, good. ___, this is ___, calling for the Barack Obama campaign—” Me: “Oh, no way…” Caller: [laughs nervously] Me: “Barack lost my vote a long time ago. After the Donnie McClurkin flap, and now Kirbyjon Caldwell… No way. Besides, we already voted.” Caller: “OK… Uh, may [...]
First, the Donnie McClurkin kerfuffle and now the Rev. Kirbyjon Caldwell endorsement. That is not a sentence, but I’ll bet a few Barack Obama supporters muttered that and more after it was recently learned that Rev. Caldwell's church promoted Metanoia (ex-gay) Ministry on it's church website. In a Politico.com article, Rev. Caldwell said this about the [...]
