Mocking Same
Sex Marriage, Mugabe 'Proposes' to Obama (Pulse, Ghana)
"I’ve just
concluded, since President Obama endorses same-sex marriage, advocates
homosexual people and enjoys an attractive countenance, [that] if it becomes
necessary I shall travel to Washington, D.C. to get down on my knee and ask for
his hand. … I cannot understand how this people [Americans] dare to defy
Christ’s explicit orders as our Lord when he prohibited mankind from sodomy."-- Zimbabwe Dictator Robert Mugabe
Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe has challenged U.S. President
Barack Obama … by asking for his hand in marriage. His comment comes at the
back of the legalization of gay marriage by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Mugabe, during his weekly radio interview with Zimbabwe state-run
ZBC radio on
Saturday, said "I’ve just concluded, since President Obama endorses same-sex
marriage, advocates homosexual people and enjoys an attractive countenance, [that]
if it becomes necessary I shall travel to Washington, D.C. to get down on my
knee and ask for his hand."
"I cannot understand how this people [Americans] dare
to defy Christ’s explicit orders as our Lord when he prohibited mankind from
sodomy," said the recalcitrant Zimbabwean leader, adding that the American
government is run by "perverted Satan-worshipers who insult the great
American nation."
Mr. Mugabe went on to say that American tradition and
heritage is based on lofty Christian principles, but that to the detriment of
this great nation, America’s corrupt political elite is acting according to its
diabolical whims.
Obama’s endorsement of gay marriage, the first from a
sitting president, came amid growing pressure for him to clarify his
previously-muddled opinion as two of his senior staff announced their personal
support for gay marriage - and just a day after voters in North Carolina
approved an amendment to the state constitution defining marriage as a union
between a man and a woman.

Obama's Gay Stance Called ‘Worst Form of Satanism’ (The Zimbabwe Mail, Zimbabwe)
The statement brought an immediate reaction from Obama's
former opponent.
“My view is that marriage itself is a relationship between a
man and a woman, and that’s my own preference,” Mitt Romney said at a brief
news conference in Oklahoma City after Obama’s remarks were released.
“I know other people have differing views — this is a very
tender and sensitive topic, as are many social issues. But I have the same view
that I’ve had since running for office.”
Romney backs a federal constitutional amendment banning gay
marriage and was opposed to the Massachusetts state court decision legalizing
gay marriage issued while he was governor.
