The Political Gamble of Obama's Gay Marriage Support
President Barack Obama in New Hampshire March 1st (Image credit Saul Loeb/AFP/Getty) WASHINGTON (USA TODAY) – With his endorsement of gay marriage on Wednesday, President Obama electrified his liberal base, incensed cultural conservatives and may have ensured that a debate on social issues will play a part in the debate ahead of the November election. For almost two years, President Obama had said that his views on gay marriage were “evolving” – what gay-marriage proponents hoped would signal a full embrace of marriage rights for gay and lesbian couples.

They are all uneducated, bare-footed, dirt-poor Indian women from outlying villages and given the emotional turmoil that awaits them, one would have thought the very last thing they would wish to do is spend their enforced nine months of confinement here gazing upon images of maternal bliss.

Looking relaxed and upbeat, he said he had no fear of criticism and signalled that he thought the recent controversies had helped trigger a stirring within Christianity. He made his comments during a Sunday service at Springfield Church, an alternative Anglican congregation which meets in a school hall rather than a traditional church building, in Wallington, Surrey. During an informal discussion with the minister the Revd Will Cookson, he disclosed that even he had not known that he was about to stand down as Archbishop until Thursday afternoon when he received the call to tell him he had been elected Master of Magdalene College, Cambridge
