Obama to Celebrate “Birthday” of Homosexual Movement – Stonewall Riots

June 27th, 2009 by Kathleen Gilbert Print This Article Print This Article ·

The White House has confirmed that President Obama has invited leaders of the homosexual lobby to the East Room of the White House on Monday to celebrate the “birthday” of the homosexualist movement. Obama is expected to make an appearance at the event.

The goodwill gesture, which the White House has not publicized, follows growing dissatisfaction from the homosexual lobby towards Obama’s handling of various issues.

Activists have decried Obama’s failure to aggressively attack the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy banning open homosexuals, both of which Obama promised to overturn.

Following reports that several homosexualist leaders had received invitations, the White House confirmed the event celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots.

The riots of June 1969 at Stonewall Inn in New York City, where a group of homosexuals fought back against a police crackdown of a homosexual bar, is considered by many to be the formal beginning of the homosexualist movement.

“Next Monday’s event is a chance for the White House to recognize the accomplishments of LGBT Americans,” White House spokesman Shin Inouye said. ”This event was long planned as a way to applaud these individuals during Pride month.”

Obama had also issued a proclamation on June 1 declaring June “LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) Pride Month.”

“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,” read the proclamation.

“The LGBT rights movement has achieved great progress, but there is more work to be done.”

Tim Goeglein, Focus on the Family’s vice president of external relations, pointed out the irony of Obama celebrating the Stonewall Riots after refusing to participate in the National Day of Prayer.

“It’s disappointing that after several years of celebrating the National Day of Prayer in the East Room at the White House, the day unfortunately in this instance does not get equal billing,” said Goeglein.

“It’s a mistake not to be able to commemorate the National Day of Prayer at the highest possible levels, and we’re very hopeful that this will be rectified next year.”

    Please pray for Obama and his team – PLEASE: at least the Rosary.

    I’m not surprised at anything he does which is anti-Christian, esp. anti-Catholic, anti-human (pro-murder all the way home…to oblivion; most of PP, Planned Parenthood’s death chambers are in the inner cities – and their “clients” are Black and Latino). Remember the death chambers of Hitler, Stalin and Mao? They will occur here – perhaps sooner than we expect.

    The governor of South Carolina is a chaste and supremely devout Capuchin monk compared to Czar Obama. Yes, Czar.

    History – the past – is a prologue to the future. Remember, Hitler was democratically elected Chancellor of Germany in 1933.

    Obama has done almost nothing to warm the hearts of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. And the Holy Trinity. Listen, oh, please listen gentle reader: “The United States is not a Christian nation,” said Obama. He has jettisoned Christ from his heart and I believe he wants to do so from our nation.

    The man, whom I honestly believe is a closet Muslim, wants power – at almost any cost.

    Pray, pay no attention to Katie or Brian, et al. They’re not only in his pocket (or elsewhere) and have little idea what danger they and us are in. He uses them as Hitler and other monsters did.

    In the 1930s, an American journalist asked Mao tse dung if he believed in the freedom of speech. Without a skip, Mao replied, “Why, of course, I believe it is the right of people to agree with me.”

    When I was on Okinawa, and friend and I visited Naha, its capital. As we crossed a bridge leading into the city, I looked to my left…and beheld an open sewer. Never had I seen such filth.

    Folks, such is the moral and spiritual soul of our president.

    Grab your Rosary, constantly pray, perhaps as Mary did, replying to Gabriel,
    “Let it be done (to Obama) according to your word.” Or name other people who need your prayers.

    PRAYER TO OUR LADY OF AMERICA – PATRONESS OF OUR LAND:
    O Immaculate Mother, Queen of our Country, open our hearts, our homes, and our Land to the coming of Jesus, your Divine Son. With Him, reign over us, O heavenly Lady, so pure and so bright with the radiance of God’s light shining in and about you. Be our Leader against the powers of evil set upon wresting the world of souls, redeemed at such a great cost by the sufferings of your Son and of yourself, in union with Him, from that same Savior, Who loves us with infinite charity. We gather about you, O chaste and holy Mother, Virgin Immaculate, Patroness of our beloved Land, determined to fight under your banner of holy purity against the wickedness that would make all the world an abyss of evil, without God and without your loving maternal care. We consecrate our hearts, our homes, our Land to your Most Pure Heart, O great Queen, that the kingdom of your Son, our Redeemer and our God, may be firmly established in us.
    We ask no special sign of you, sweet Mother, for we believe in your great love for us, and we place in you our entire confidence. We promise to honor you by faith, love, and the purity of our lives according to your desire. Reign over us, then, O Virgin Immaculate, with your Son Jesus Christ. May His Divine Heart and your most chaste Heart be ever enthroned and glorified among us. Use us, your children of America, as your instruments in bringing peace among men
    and nations. Work your miracles of grace in us, so that we may be a glory to the Blessed Trinity, Who created, redeemed, and sanctifies us. May your valiant Spouse, St. Joseph, with the holy Angels and Saints, assist you and us in “renewing the face of the earth.” Then when our work is over, come, Holy Immaculate Mother, and as our Victorious Queen, lead us to the eternal kingdom,
    where your Son reigns forever as King. Amen (200 days)
    Written at the behest of Our Lady, October 5, 1956.
