Recently, President Obama
declared that if he is reelected, he will do everything in his power to see
that gay marriage would become legally recognized throughout our nation. During
his speech, two words caught my attention. Words that were carefully chosen
that would appeal to potential voters. The words chosen were words, in a
general context, are principles that many of us would not disagree.
The first word I call to your
attention is the word “right.” This is a favorite word of the “politically correct”
crowd. Everyone should have the “right” to be happy. When our founding Fathers
created our Constitution, the phrase “…the right to life, liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness…” did not extend to legalizing a deviant lifestyle as a
“right.” This could only open the floodgate to all kinds of “rights.”
The second word he chooses was
“fair.” I mean who could be against “fairness? It is only ‘fair’ to grant
same-sex marriage the same status and legal rights as heterosexual couples. I
have news for our President, life is not fair. This is the same foundation for
his economic ideology. It isn’t “fair” that some people are rich and others are
poor. Therefore, the only “fair” thing is for the rich to share the fruits of
their hard labor. But this fails to take into consideration that some “poor”
people are third generation welfare, while others are just abusing the system.
I am not against helping the
truly poor, the Bible even commands us to, but there is a big difference
between a “helping hand” and a “hand out.” Most Americans realize how far we
have strayed from the founding principles of the original but most will allow the radical left to force their agenda
down our throats.
