This is the first time in American history that a President has openly supported same sex marriage during his term in office. 

I have to tell you that over the course of several years as I have talked to friends and family and neighbors when I think about members of my own staff who are in incredibly committed monogamous relationships, same-sex relationships, who are raising kids together, when I think about those soldiers or airmen or marines or sailors who are out there fighting on my behalf and yet feel constrained, even now that Don’t Ask Don’t Tell is gone, because they are not able to commit themselves in a marriage…”

I am tired of [people] who make me think I should be embarrassed to believe what I believe… We all need some therapy, because somebody came along and said liberal means soft on crime, soft on drugs, soft on communism, soft on defense, and we’re going to tax you back to the stone age, because people shouldn’t have to go to work if they don’t want to. And instead of saying, Well excuse me, you right-wing reactionary, xenophobic, homophobic, anti-education, anti-choice, pro-gun, Leave it to Beaver trip back to the 50’s, we cowered in the corner and said, Please. Don’t. Hurt. Me. No more. I really don’t care who’s right and who’s wrong. We’re both right, we’re both wrong. Let’s have two parties.
