Several days ago, after explaining how President Obama ruined the annual White House Easter Egg Roll, I sarcastically tweeted the following comment:
I wonder if any gay families got tickets to the annual Easter Egg Roll. Maybe Obama wanted to keep them out.
My sarcasm was way off the mark. Plenty of gay families will be at the egg roll.
I should have known the president would take care of the liberal constituencies who helped elect him. He made sure that homosexuals will be there regardless of whether they beat the incredibly flawed online ticketing system his White House implemented for the egg roll:
The White House is allocating tickets for the upcoming Easter Egg Roll to gay and lesbian parents as part of the Obama administration’s outreach to diverse communities.
Families say the gesture shows that the new Democratic administration values them as equal to other families. And for many, being included in the annual tradition — dating to 1878 — renews hope that they will have more support in their quest for equal rights in matters such as marriage and adoption than under the previous administration. …
White House officials said that tickets for Monday’s Easter Egg Roll event were distributed to gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender organizations, but did not specify how many or to which ones. Representatives from Family Equality Council, Human Rights Campaign, National Gay and Lesbian Task Force and other groups confirmed they were invited and encouraged to have their members participate.
“The Obama administration actually reached out to us as an organization, and said we want gay families there, and they are an important part of the American family fabric,” said Jennifer Chrisler, executive director of the Boston-based Family Equality Council, which is helping spearhead the effort to organize families to attend.
Chrisler said Tuesday she expects more than 100 gay and lesbian-headed families to take part in the egg roll.
Homosexuals are not an important part of the “American family fabric”; they are destroying it. And Obama is aiding and abetting their crime against morality by giving them special, politically motivated treatment to what used to be an apolitical event.
In doing so, he has moved America one step closer to becoming a modern reincarnation of Sodom and Gomorrah. Change indeed.
