Breaking News: Obama becomes the first president to support same-sex marriage… see the video here

In a definitive sign of the times, President Obama has become the first president in history to throw his support behind same-sex marriage– and rightfully so.

In these times, sexual preference should not be an issue. Happiness in one’s life should always prevail, especially with the European economy crumbling as we write this, and the stresses and strains of life more intensified than ever before.

Three days after Vice President Joe Biden said he is “absolutely comfortable” with two men or two women getting married, Obama told ABC News that “Americans should be treated fairly and equally.”

“I think same-sex couples should be able to get married,” Mr. Obama said in an interview with Robin Roberts broadcast in a special report this afternoon.

More from the interview will be broadcast tonight and tomorrow morning.
