Why not? A bumper sticker slogan won the presidency and a nobel prize. Substance is apparantly not required.
"When Whites are held as slaves for hundreds of years, then Jim Crow and defacto (sp) discrimination, then whites can whine."

So whomever has the best sob story gets free reign to discriminate, racially profile, and hold a double standard until, I suppose, the debt has been satisfied. It's immoral for Whites to judge on race, but it’s just the chickens comin' home to roost when Blacks do the same. That's cool, just gotta get me into one of these protected classes... classes protected to discriminate I mean.
Very similar to how anti-eighters hunted out personal information of traditional marriage supporters to help them "come out." There all for free speech, love, and the other buzz words until you stop toting the tolerance line. Get out of step and everything is fair game (as our family car was for the "love not hate" crowd).

For the uninformed, here is the "Tax guide for Churches and Religious Organizations" (an in depth guide to the taxation rules involved)

Sorry to bum you religious bigots out, but churches and people that go to them are actually allowed to be politically active too… even those outside the religion of, ahem, "tolerance."
The president should invite Rush and the NFL to the White House for beers. It may not solve any problems, but it'd make a great photo opp.
In Obama's effort to be more like Europe, maybe the US should start funding the UN on the same proportion that European nations do.

Sad that requiring simple employment and housing benefits, which I understand are the benefits of not being fired or denied a place of residence because of sexual preference, is argued as "turning ordinary people with traditional values into the legal equivalent of hateful racists."

I would hope that most people who respect the value of a traditional marriage can rent to or employ someone atracted to others of the same gender without feeling like they are in direct violation of their faith. Renting to someone or employing them is not an endorsement of that person's beliefs or actions.

It's not inconsistent to view the union of a man and a woman in marriage, and the benefits of that union to society, as distinct from other...

"Ignorance and bile. Viciousness and contempt. Filth. Namecalling"

The irony of your post is beautiful Allen. Keep up your contributions to the "love" and "tolerance" that its all about.
