Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have once again showed their spinelessness, and that their desire for worldly success is greater than their desire to do what's right.
Gen. Peter Pace, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, recently declared his belief that homosexuality is immoral. I commend Gen. Pace not only for sticking to his guns, but also for having a clear head on this issue in the first place. Clinton and Obama, on the other hand, receive only my disappointment and criticism. Both refused to comment initially on what Pace said, and finally on Thursday they each issued a statement ... declaring homosexuality moral ... after a homosexual advocacy group criticized them for their silence.
The situation should be obvious to anyone: they failed to initially respond because they feared alienating one side or the other, and when it came right down to it, they caved to the pressure of the advocates of immorality. Their initial inaction and their ultimate wrong action demonstrate several things:
1.) They don't have the courage it takes to stand up for what's right;
2.) They're more interested in grabbing power (the presidency) than in doing what's right;
3.) They're no longer qualified (if they ever were in the first place) to be the leader of our nation.
Anyone who continues to support either of them will only contribute to the further decay of our country's moral fiber. Besides that, why would any homosexual advocates support either of them now? If Hillary or Obama truly felt that homosexuality is moral and worthy of support, why didn't they say so right away? Likewise, even if either had ultimately agreed with Gen. Pace, I wouldn't trust their expressed "agreement." In either situation, they made a calculated move based on getting votes instead of doing the right thing.
