P(2) Obama ends Silence on Massacare by Gaddafi White House Ppress Conference on Libya
P(2) Obama ends Silence on Massacare by Gaddafi White House Ppress Conference on Libya Obama makes historic shift on gay rights Obama Condemns Libya Amid Stalled Evacuation By HELENE COOPER and MARK LANDLER WASHINGTON — President Obama broke four days of silence on Wednesday to "strongly condemn" the Libyan government's violent crackdown on protesters and said his administration was considering a range of responses to the bloody clashes unfolding in the oil-rich North African state. Calling it "imperative that the nations and peoples of the world speak with one voice," Mr. Obama said he was dispatching Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton to Geneva next Monday to meet with top diplomats on how to respond to the crisis. "The suffering and bloodshed is outrageous, and it is unacceptable," Mr. Obama said at the White House after meeting with Mrs. Clinton. "These actions violate international norms and every standard of common decency. This violence must stop." Mr. Obama made no mention of the Libyan strongman, Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi, reflecting the administration's worry about the safety of American diplomats and their families in Tripoli, where a ferry meant to evacuate Americans was still stuck at the port, penned in by high winds in the Mediterranean. Mr. Obama has been coming under fire from critics who said he has not been tough enough against Colonel Qaddafi in the wake of the violent crackdown by pro-Qaddafi forces against demonstrators. In his remarks Wednesday, Mr. Obama said that the Libyan government has a "responsibility to refrain from violence," adding that "it must be held accountable for its failure to meet those responsibilities." But he did not call for the resignation of Colonel Qaddafi, who vowed on Tuesday to fight against the uprising until "the last drop of my blood." Mr. Obama now joins the list of American presidents bedeviled over the past 40 years by the man whom Ronald Reagan called the "mad dog of the Middle East." Administration officials said they were considering sanctions to try to influence Colonel Qaddafi. The White House press secretary, Jay Carney, refused to say whether sanctions might include a no-fly zone over Libya, but Mrs. Clinton, without addressing the no-fly option, said Tuesday that "everything will be on the table." She said the administration "will look at all the possible options to put an end to the violence, to try to influence the government." The Obama administration will no longer oppose legal challenges to the Defense of Marriage Act, just two months after Congress and the president agreed to repeal the military's ban on openly gay service members. Reporting from Washington — In a historic shift on gay rights, the Obama administration announced that it believes the Constitution usually forbids unequal treatment of gays and lesbians, particularly when it comes to federal benefits for legally married same-sex couples. Atty. Gen. Eric Holder said in a letter to Congress Wednesday that the Justice Department would no longer oppose legal challenges to the Defense of Marriage Act. The act, which was passed by Congress in 1996, bars the federal government from recognizing same-sex marriages or extending them the same benefits as heterosexual couples. Holder said the administration had decided that discrimination against gays can no longer be accepted as reasonable.
