“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!” (Isaiah 5:20 ESV)

    As I have noted elsewhere, President Obama is committed to a radical pro-homosexual agenda.  Since day one of his administration, he has made no secret of his intent to move the ball forward on the full acceptance of homosexuality and the criminalization of all disapproval thereof.  Just this week he appointed the founder of GLSEN to a post in the Department of Education.  Then, in another brazen act, the Obama administration took another bold step forward as he declared June LGBT Pride Month.  In a statement on the White House website he wrote:

LGBT Americans have made, and continue to make, great and lasting contributions that continue to strengthen the fabric of American society. There are many well-respected LGBT leaders in all professional fields, including the arts and business communities. LGBT Americans also mobilized the Nation to respond to the domestic HIV/AIDS epidemic and have played a vital role in broadening this country's response to the HIV pandemic.

    Hence, sodomites, who who are in large part responsible for the introduction and spread of the HIV/AIDS epidemic are praised for responding to this plague in an attempt to avoid annihilation (by the way, I know you don’t have to engage in sodomy to get HIV, but that doesn’t change the facts... see  the book, And the Band Played On for an honest look at this issue).  This is revisionism at its worst. 

    The President goes on to celebrate the fact that this abomination (Lev 18:22) worthy of the death penalty (Lev 20:13) is now being celebrated in the open.  He writes,  “Due in no small part to the determination and dedication of the LGBT rights movement, more LGBT Americans are living their lives openly today than ever before.” This is a clear sign of the devolution of culture.  As Paul writes in Romans, “Though they know God’s decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.” (Rom 1:32 ESV)  Nor does President Obama stop there:

I am proud to be the first President to appoint openly LGBT candidates to Senate-confirmed positions in the first 100 days of an Administration. These individuals embody the best qualities we seek in public servants. 

What is sad about this statement is the fact that it is a clear indictment being lauded as though it were some sort of commendation.  By the way, Obama has to specify “the first 100 days” due to the unfortunate fact that our previous president also appointed open homosexuals to key positions.  Thus, in order to trump Bush, Obama had to act more quickly on the issue since he could not act more abominably. 

    The president goes on to add a shot-across-the-bow for those of us who oppose his positions and practices while simultaneously assuring those in the so-called ‘LGBT Community’ that he has “only just begun” to fight on their behalf:

My Administration has partnered with the LGBT community to advance a wide range of initiatives. At the international level, I have joined efforts at the United Nations to decriminalize homosexuality around the world. Here at home, I continue to support measures to bring the full spectrum of equal rights to LGBT Americans. These measures include enhancing hate crimes laws, supporting civil unions and Federal rights for LGBT couples, outlawing discrimination in the workplace, ensuring adoption rights, and ending the existing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy in a way that strengthens our Armed Forces and our national security. 

There is so much to be disturbed about here that I hardly know where to begin.  First, anyone familiar with the UN’s record on this issue should be appalled to see the President aligning himself with that body.  Second, those of us who have kept up with the true out-workings of “hate crimes” laws around the world knows that the term ‘hate crimes’ is code for ‘thought crimes’ in general, and ‘Christianity’ in particular.  Just Ask Ake Green.  And don’t get me started on “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” being lauded as a means of “strengthen[ing]” our military. 

    The final blow in this sickening morass is the official statement at the close of the letter:

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim June 2009 as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month.

There you have it... the office of the President of the United States not only calling “evil good and good evil,” but putting his seal on it.  What’s worse, he is merely doing what he promised (and was elected) to do.  I cannot find the words to express my disgust.  Perhaps the words of another will suffice:

“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things. Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.” (Romans 1:18-27 ESV)
