A "hate crimes" plan that opponents have warned will be used to crack down on Christian speech, even the reading of the Bible, is poised to be signed by President Obama, a longtime proponent of the plan to give homosexuals and those with other alternative lifestyles special protections not provided other classes of citizens.

The Senate approved the "hate crimes" plan 68-29 today after Democrats strategically attached it to a "must-pass" $680 billion defense appropriations plan.

Most Republicans, although normally strong supporters of the U.S. military, opposed the plan.

"The inclusion of the controversial language of the hate crimes legislation, which is unrelated to our national defense, is deeply troubling," Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., told Fox News after the vote.

The plan also hands out federal money to states and local governments in pursuit of "preventing" hate crimes.

Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., said the move is a step toward thought crimes and suggested the bill will be a warning against those to speak out about their religious faith.

The slimeballs snuck this monstrosity in a DEFENSE bill!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Its now open season on Pastors, Christians, or anyone else who dares defend a child against a sexual predator. Unbelievable.

If they think this is going to silence Christians they being think again - we answer to a higher authority!

Stupid, worthless GOP. Why should we vote for you again?

“If they think this is going to silence Christians they being think again - we answer to a higher authority!”

And I am willing to defend my right to answer to that higher authority by ALL means necessary.

Which Repubs voted for this thing?

They ought to have stood firm and refused to be used in this way.

[Charles H. (The_r0nin)]

Please explain how the Republicans could stop this vote or this bill.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Would telling a radical homosexual activist who threatens me with this law to s*** my b***s count as a hate crime?

[ScottinVA]

“Stupid, worthless GOP. Why should we vote for you again?”

Yes, Gelding Outmoded Party — why the hell should we???

[DBrow]

Anyone have the bill number?

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Is it printed yet?

Republicans and frankly most conservative groups dropped the ball on this issue. Didn’t spend serious cash to battle it. Devastating. People simply have no idea how the 1st Amendment will be curtailed by this law.

[pandoraou812]

Shaking my head & thinking how this hope & change bs is going to ruin this country.

[chris37]

They could have not gotten their asses kicked in 2008 by being such a worthless trash, piece of crap, utterly useless party.

[kempster]

Glad you fixed it. I was trying to find that line in the Ebonics dictionary.

[ScottinVA]

The endgame is nearing. I would say the 2010 elections will be the final chance to save this nation.

Praise the Lord; pass the ammo.

[muawiyah]

The reason your Congressional leadership wishes to protect pedophiles is pretty obvious.

Those people should be closely watched.

"Would telling a radical homosexual activist who threatens me with this law to s*** my b***s count as a hate crime?"

A "hate crime," or an invitation.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Any creep who tells me that his pedophile BS is protected under this law is going to find himself being frog-marched off of my property and referred to the police.
