GOProud's Chris Barron reacts to Barack Obama's late and somewhat tepid support for marriage equality: 

"It is good to see that after intense political pressure that President Obama has finally come around to the Dick Cheney position onmarriage equality. I am sure, however, the President's newly discovered support for marriage is cold comfort to the gay couples in North Carolina.  The President waited until after North Carolina passed a constitutional amendment banningsame-sex marriage." 

"This is hardly a profile in courage by President Obama.  For years now, President Obama has tried his hardest to have it both ways on this issue. 

"The real kudos here goes to LGBT activists and their allies who finally forced the President into yielding on this issue."
