Really, he's no better than Romney here.

Except in the sense that Obama's of the opinion that all Americans deserve equal rights, and Romney believes the opposite.

I'm talking about switching positions. That's obstinacy.

There is not a single politician alive who has not switched positions on something at some point. Flexibility is no vice.

A referendum banning gay marriage failed in Idaho in 1994 as well, though that one was certainly much further reaching in it's anti-gay rhetoric than any of its more modern cousins.

I didn't realize that marriage was also on that one besides uncivil unions.
but I guess since it passed a few years later means that more people are becoming against this perversion

I'd be careful with the "perversion" talk — that's starting to drift into infractable territory. And the moderator who patrols these boards is very biased when it comes to gay issues.

For those wondering if this was a response to a Biden gaffe or a planned event, the way Obama has handled this via social media would suggest the latter.  The endorsement is being proudly displayed on his Facebook page, and his campaign sends out the following email:

Obama's messy, disasterous pressers between the Biden gaffe and the eventual announcement of support for gay marriage suggest anything but a planned event. He looked like a f***ing fool.
