1. Abortion...known as Pro Life verse Pro Choice.
2. Gay Marriage verse the rabid religious rights belief that marriage is only between a man and a woman.
3. Illegal Aliens.
Yes, these three trump even terrorism and the war in Iraq. I don't list Health Care crisis, as half the problem would dissappear overnight if you instructed Department of Homeland Security and ICE to enforce our laws, and deport those here illegally.
So Mr. Obama, Mr. UNITER AND CHIEF, like it or not, you have a duty and responsibility to weigh in on this Civil Rights/Gay Rights issue, and I find myself wondering if you are being silent on Proposition 8 because you have your own prejudice against gays that sees you also willing to oppose them having EQUAL RIGHTS, the right to marry.
Obama calls for unity

CHICAGO (Reuters) – Barack Obama said on Saturday that now with the long presidential election season behind the nation, it is time for Americans to put aside political differences and work together to solve the economic crisis.
Obama, who won a decisive victory against Republican John McCain in Tuesday's presidential election and will become the first black American president on January 20, vowed to seek unity.
He noted that Republican President George W. Bush and first lady Laura Bush had invited Obama and his wife Michelle to the White House on Monday and that the Bushes offered to do all they could to help with Obama's transition to the White House.
"This speaks to a fundamental recognition that here in America we can compete vigorously in elections and challenge each other's ideas, yet come together in service of a common purpose once the voting is done," Obama said in the Democratic Party's weekly radio address.
"And that is particularly important at a moment when we face the most serious challenges of our lifetime," he said.
