North Dakota’s Republican governor sent a memo to 17 government departments on Monday saying discrimination against anyone is unacceptable, just two hours before every Democrat in the Legislature delivered a letter calling on him to go further and issue an executive order prohibiting bias against gays and lesbians.

Gov. Jack Dalrymple’s chief of staff sent the letter to all agency directors appointed by the governor.

“This administration expects all cabinet agencies to hire employees and to maintain agency staff based on ability and performance,” Chief of Staff Ron Rauschenberger wrote. “Ours remains a policy of non-discrimination, including no discrimination based on sexual orientation.”

All 38 Democrats from the House and Senate delivered a letter to Dalrymple later in the day asking him to issue an executive order to require state agencies to ban discrimination in hiring and employment based on sexual orientation. Democrats are the minority in the Legislature, where Republicans hold two-thirds majorities. …

"gay" discrimination

What about religious intolerance from the militant LGBT (sexual deviant) lobby and their leftist supporters?

Make an arrangement with all of the traditional Christian churches in the area and offer “The Church Discount”.

Normal wedding cake $5000, with Church discount $300. Offer to discount to others on a case by case basis.

So then can they just discriminate against other types of child molesters?

When I was a kid, Leftist stood up for the rights of NAZIs claiming that they were all about standing up for a person’s rights, no matter what they had to say.

Now they are attacking Christians for wanting to exercise their religion.

Turns out the Left is just a bunch of NAZI homosexuals out to protect themselves.

Does ND governor actually have instances of gay discrimination that he needs to remedy? Or is this just a PC move?

Because the republican party is now an advocate for homosexuality, I don't think they'll ever win another election. They just lost the traditional and moral minded vote. All they have left are possibly the homos who don't want to pay taxes, and a few people who aren't paying attention. Plus, they've handed over to oboma, with a smile, everything he wanted and them some, knowing the American people who voted for them would be outraged.

Maybe things are so bad in this country, and the rest of the world, that they don't want to be in charge. If they're in charge it would be up to them to fix things, and the globe is on such a downward spiral because of oboma, maybe it can't be fixed. Maybe he made things that bad. Maybe there are no more options. Mass joblessness, homo decadence, mass infanticide, crashing economy, kids graduating from high school and college with a less than a 3rd grade education, on the verge of a nuclear war... maybe only God can stop it now. Maybe the republicans are trying not to make any waves, because when the SHTF, they don't want Americans coming after them. This belongs to the democrats. Let them be the targets.

The Original Nazis were also a bunch of Homosexuals, but that has been pretty much covered up.

Doesn't that seem odd? The homo fascists are less than 2% of the population, yet the politicians, judges, businesses, and anyone else with "authority" acts as though they have a knife to their throat. They act as though they're frightened of someone - or something.

I wonder if oboma has unlimited access to the NSA files.

OR, "Woe to the inhabitants of the Earth for Satan has been cast down unto you having great rage, because he knows he has but little time." Could it be he's here?? My husband and I were talking about how crazed people are acting today. People are going insane. They're acting like they're possessed by demons. For example, why would Gov. Dalrymple throw away his career over a stupid pro-queer memo? Doesn't make sense in a sane world. Why would he commit political suicide because a few idiots from another party send him a memo?
