Current event #4

Black ministors say that they don't support Obama's approval of same-sex marriage, but they still love him and want him in office.
Disclaimer: Before I begin my weekly current event rant, let it be known that I am not, nor have I ever been, racist in the slightest.
THIS IS SUCH BULLSHIT! If President Bush had thrown his support to same-sex marriage, do you think preachers would be saying "Well we don't agree, but we have bigger issues. He should still be in office."? No. They would flip out. It's a complete double standard. If you're going to take a stand on same-sex marriage, whether it be for or against, take your stand. Don't be passive just because a black president supports it as opposed to a white person. You should support a candidate based on their views. If they are against what the president believes yet support him because he's Obama, my fellow countrymen, that is indeed racism.
I should also add that some of these preachers have stayed with the beliefs of the church and withdrawn their support for Obama.
