In another one of his executive decrees Obama is now announcing that homerism is a "fundamental freedom". Let's see - is it in the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bible (KJV1611)? Like many things, Obama seems to be pulling it out of his rectum.
It's embarrassing to see a third-world country like Uganda taking leadership in issues of morality.

WASHINGTON, D.C., February 17, 2014 (LifeSiteNews.com) – President Barack Obama has elevated the right to have sex with a member of the same sex to the level of universal “fundamental freedoms” in a new presidential statement criticizing Uganda. But critics say his promotion of homosexuality in a continent that overwhelmingly opposes that behavior amounts to a form of liberal “cultural imperialism.”
Obama wrote on Sunday that he opposed a proposed bill in Uganda that would criminalize same-sex “marriages” and impose life imprisonment for repeated homosexual acts, among other provisions, because “as a country and a people, the United States has consistently stood for the protection of fundamental freedoms and universal human rights.”
Obama said the bill represents “a serious setback for all those around the world who share a commitment to freedom, justice, and equal rights.”
He added that he had “conveyed” the message that “enacting this legislation will complicate our valued relationship with Uganda."
His reaction came after Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni said last Friday that, after nearly two months deliberation, he would sign legislation that makes conducting a same-sex “wedding” punishable with seven years in prison. Infecting others with AIDS, having sex with minors, or repeated homosexual acts may earn life imprisonment. An earlier version of the bill called for the death penalty, but the provision was removed.
