Another day, another defeat for Moveon.org’s puppets in the US Congress

[CanaGuy]

Good move. Well done. Say, dontcha just HATE Ted Kennedy?

[Always Right]

Won’t be too long before our schools will be nothing more than gay recruitment centers. The gay agenda is moving forward on every front.

Why isn’t this in Braking News? (sic)

[Da Coyote]

Just read on Drudge about a Baltimore girl being beaten up by 9 (that’s NINE) brave students. Read the article (which actually mentions race) and ask whether or not those “students” (who probably cannot read or write, but can rap) will be charged for committing a “hate” crime.

“The exclusion of the hate-crimes legislation, sponsored by Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., is a blow to civil rights groups who say it is necessary to address a rise in crimes motivated by prejudice against a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity. “

- All people are created equal; some are just extra specially protected by laws. Murdering my wife is less significant than murdering a homo.

The politicians behind such nonsense are disgusting vote chasers who stray from the most BASIC concepts laid down in our Constitution and in the spirit of the Declaration of Independence. Such people are treasonous to the principals upon which this nation was built.

The exclusion of the hate-crimes legislation, sponsored by Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., is a blow to civil rights groups who say it is necessary to address a rise in crimes motivated by prejudice against a person's sexual orientation or gender identity.

Well a little common sense raises it's head here. These so called civil rights groups act as if a crime isn't punished unless it is a hate crime. If someone commits a crime against a gay person(or transvestite)it is still a crime and punishable under our present laws.

Hate crimes are just another excuse to limit our freedoms and one more step down the road to slavery.

The high-pitched shrieking from the gays lobby can’t be far away...

[JRP0322]

My question is why is this in a Military bill to start with.

[Unam Sanctam]

The Senate has dropped its insistence that Congress pass legislation expanding hate crime laws to include attacks on gays, after it became clear the measure wouldn't pass the House, according to congressional aides.

Physical attacks on anyone should be crimes, and it shouldn't matter what kind of person the victim is or what the motive was, so long as it was malicious.

Guess the Sinate didn’t want their approval rating to hit below zero.

[Joe Boucher]

Oh my goodness, a miniscule bit of sanity in the U.S. Congress, who’d of thought it?

[Teacher317]

only to be tried again next year, and the next, and the next, until it eventually passes. They must only win once.

[Sunshine Sister]

Good!
