Zimbabwean leader, Robert Mugabe has mocked America's decision to legalise gay marriage across all 50 states by vowing to travel to the White House and proposing to Barack Obama. During his weekly interview with the national radio station, the Zimbabwean president joked that he planned to travel to
Washington DC 'get down on one knee and ask his hand'.
Mugabe, who is known for his brutal crusades against homosexuality, was responding in bizarre fashion to the Supreme Court's landmark ruling that the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees gays and lesbians the same right to marry as heterosexuals.
Mugabe said: 'I've just concluded - since President Obama endorses the same-sex marriage, advocates homosexual people and enjoys an attractive countenance - thus if it becomes necessary, I shall travel to Washington, DC, get down on my knee and ask his hand.'Mugabe also said that the American government is run by pervert, Satan-worshippers who insult the great American nation. According to him, the American tradition and heritage was based on lofty Christian principles, but to the detriment of this great nation, America’s corrupt political elite is acting according to their diabolic whims.
Striking a more serious tone, he added: 'I can't understand how this people dare to defy Christ's explicit orders as our Lord prohibited mankind from sodomy'.
His comments came only hours after the Supreme Court's landmark decision to legalise gay marriage in all 50 states - prompting thousands of same-sex couples to immediately tie the knot. The ruling was delivered just in time for the weekend's Pride celebrations, which saw the Empire State building, Niagara Falls and the White House lit up by rainbow lights
