Livestream of Obama's Statement: "For Me, Personally, It's Important to Go Ahead and Affirm That I Think Same-Sex Couples Should Be Allowed to Get Married"

Here.

Earlier ABCNews posted this headline: Obama: "Same-Sex Marriage Should be Legal"

So far he's laying the predicate for explaining how his position "evolved," though as that 1996 questionnaire demonstrates, it never evolved. He just lied about it for tactical political considerations.

He says "for me, personally" (for him?) "it's important to affirm that I believe same sex marriage should be legal."

I think that's the quote; I can't rewind but that's as I remember it.

Meanwhile, George Stephanopolous and Dianne Sawyer are greeting this news with giddy joy, as if they're drunk.

In Dianne's case, of course, that's not an "as if" thing at all.
