The Freedom to Fornicate

For the last five years the world has waited with bated breath to discover Obama's real values. Does our first post-modern president really care about democracy in the world? Not much, no: His deep public bow to Chinese President Hu --- the master of occupied Tibet --- took care of that notion. Was an end to war Obama's deepest passion? But an insider book says he boasted that "I'm pretty good at killing people" using drone strikes directed from the White House. Obama's idea of peace is to abandon Afghanistan to the tender mercies of the Taliban. Maybe his legacy would be lasting peace in the Middle East? Nope. Wrong again. On November 24 last year, Obama openly surrendered America and the West to the mullah regime in Tehran. As a direct result, new nuclear powers are rising in Iran, Saudi Arabia, and neo-Ottoman Turkey.

Could it be that the leader of the Free World cares about women's rights? But this week our State Department came clean on supporting the Muslim Brotherhood, which is still trying to put Egypt's women into big sacks with eyeholes, straight from the 7th century desert. Does great medical care for all Americans rock Obama's boat? The wretchedly sloppy and incompetent rollout of Obamacare now has Democrats actually running away from that one. Maybe our first black president cares about the wretched of the earth, the people of color? But he didn't even pause for breath when Al Qaida monsters murdered dozens of innocent children and women, black and white, in the West Mall massacre in Nairobi, Kenya. We must suppose he was too busy golfing with billionaires. This week we got the answer. Obama really, truly cares about the right of gays to get their rocks off without interference from the likes of Vladimir Putin. Obama's answer to the Sochi Winter Olympics has been to worry out loud about gay rights. We've overlooked Putin's artillery bombardments of Chechnya, we have tactfully ignored his annoying habit of assassinating journalists and political opponents, but Russia's gays must be allowed to party to their hearts' contents. Last week Uganda passed a law against gay sex. Sounds like a pretty Procrustean law, but the fact is that no human society has ever eliminated gay sex. Uganda is making a pro forma statement. Ugandans are just as hooked as the West on the ideology of free sex without consequences. Nobody can enforce this law. So Uganda's law is only a gesture. Still, as we know, it's words that really matter to this administration. Like other African nations, Uganda is still suffering from a massive AIDS epidemic, transmitted by anal intercourse. That pandemic first exploded among gay men in Western cities like San Francisco and New York, and then spread to the rest of the world. From an African point of view, AIDS is only the latest Western imperialistic export. Of the 35 million people of Uganda, 7.2% are living with AIDS, with younger and urban people worse off. Uganda is too poor to afford expensive medicines. Many people just suffer and die. In the whole continent, tens of millions of Africans have sickened and died from this disease of Western-style decadence. In their usual way, our media have closed their eyes to our biggest African export. Still, Mr. Obama is furious about Uganda. Google shows 38,000,000 hits on Obama's fearless stand for Ugandans to have sex with any person of their choice, regardless of the predictable consequences. Americans used to have rights under the Constitution, but they are now under unrelenting attack by the IRS, the NSA, the EPA, and the White House itself. As president, FDR proclaimed a human right to free speech and worship, and to be free from want and fear. But this week Obama topped them all, and put the full force of the U.S. Government behind the freedom to fornicate. It took cultural Marxism in the United States and its glorious hero, our first black president, to stand for gay rights in HIV-ridden Africa. In this sixth year of his presidency our leader has found himself. He is the change he's been looking for. Entertainers like Miley Cyrus can only hint at the universal right to have orgies without consequences, but Obama can enforce it. He told Uganda that ""Enacting this legislation will complicate our valued relationship with Uganda." Uganda is a poor country, and coming from this administration that's a real threat. Obama's blackness is only skin deep, but the real man is made of radical chic. He can't think outside of that box. That is harmful in an endless number of ways, but politicians around the world have figured out that letting him to grandstand takes care of most problems. Obama cares about appearances most of all. The Ugandans might be wise to cancel that law, and like Obama himself, to enforce whatever they want to enforce. But only if Obama sends a lot of money first.
