In coming out of the closet for GAY MARRIAGE after he was again it...
Obama cited the Golden Rule, you know, treat others the way you would want to be treated.

In 2004 during an Illinois Senate Debate, Obama said, “I believe that marriage is between a man and a woman,” adding, however, that he detests attacks on homosexuals in Americas. Although he went on record to say that “Most gays and lesbians are seeking basic recognition of their rights” and that “These are rights for everybody, not just some people,” the president’s stance on gay marriage until now was one that opposed it.
