Under President Obama, justice is anything but blind. Neither is it deaf. In fact, based on recent revelations, it appears to be watching your every move and listening to your every word. Still, if you happen to be a federal employee, now its even listening for your silence.
The only thing this Obama White House seems to generate is scandal. Well, heres yet another to add to the growing list. In addition to the Benghazi cover-up, IRS targeting of political dissenters and the illegal seizure of media phone records, whistleblowers within DOJ have contacted Liberty Counsel to express grave concerns over this administrations latest attack on freedom.
Our sources have provided Liberty Counsel an internal DOJ document titled: LGBT Inclusion at Work: The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Managers. It was emailed to DOJ managers in advance of the lefts so-called Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Pride Month.
The document is chilling. Its riddled with directives that grossly violate prima facie employees First Amendment liberties.
Following are excerpts from the DOJ Pride decree. When it comes to LGBT employees, managers are instructed:
Thats a threat.
And not even a subtle one.
Got it? For Christians and other morals-minded federal employees, its no longer enough to just shut up and stay in the closet to live your life in silent recognition of biblical principles (which, by itself, is unlawful constraint). When it comes to mandatory celebration of homosexual and cross-dressing behaviors, silence will be interpreted as disapproval.
This lawless administration is now bullying federal employees against their will to affirm sexual behaviors that every major world religion, thousands of years of history and uncompromising human biology reject.
Somewhere, right now, George Orwell is smiling.
The directive includes a quote from a gay federal employee to rationalize justification: Ideally, Id love to hear and see support from supervisors, so its clear that there arent just policies on paper. Silence seems like disapproval. Theres still an atmosphere of LGBT issues not being appropriate for the workplace (particularly for transgender people), or that people who bring it up are trying to rock the boat.
Of course theres still an atmosphere of LGBT issues not being appropriate for the workplace. When well over half of federal employees, half the country and most of the world still acknowledge objective sexual morality (and immorality), the workplace, especially the federal workplace, should, at the very least, remain neutral on these highly controversial and behavior-centric issues.
Still, to borrow from self-styled queer activist, anti-Christian bigot and Obama buddy Dan Savage, it gets better:
Is this the DOJ or the KGB? [A]ssume that LGBT employees are listening ? And what are LGBT allies? If you disagree with the homosexual activist political agenda, does that make you the enemy?
Yes, in any workplace, language should remain professional, but who defines whats inclusive? Who decides whats respectful? If asked about LGBT issues, for instance, can a Christian employee answer honestly: I believe the Bible. I believe that God designed sex to be shared between husband and wife within the bonds of marriage? Or is that grounds for termination?
Here are some more DOs:
Are you kidding? Does this administration really think its legal to induce managers to attend LGBT events, or to display pride stickers against their will? Thats compulsory expression. Thats viewpoint discrimination.
Thats unconstitutional.
But theres more:
Oh, brother.
Sorry. Oh, gender-neutral sibling.
In other words, lie. Engage in corporate delusion.
Who gets to decide whats an inappropriate joke [or] comment? I thought we had a Constitution for that. It sure aint Big Brother Barack. Sure, I get it, its probably better not to start your work day with: A lesbian, a tranny and two gays walk into a bath house but still, no law abridging the freedom of speech, means no law. No matter how much Obama wishes it so, we dont leave our constitutional rights at the federal workplace door.
The DOJ edict even addresses cross-dressing man woes:
As a transgender woman [thats a man in a skirt], I want people to understand that Im real. I want to be recognized as the gender I really am [again, youre a man in a skirt]. Yes, there was awkwardness with pronouns at first for folks who knew me before the transition. But it hurts when several years later people still use the wrong pronouns. And just imagine if people were constantly debating YOUR bathroom privileges. Imagine how humiliating that would be.
Tell you what, buddy: I wont debate YOUR bathroom privileges if you return to this planet. Youd better stay the heck out of the ladies room while my wife or two daughters are in there; otherwise, we have a problem. Women have an absolute right not be sexually harassed in the workplace a right to privacy when using the facilities. To constantly worry whether a gender-confused, cross-dressing man is going to invade her privacy creates a hostile work environment.
This DOJ Pride directive is but the latest example of the progressive climate of fear and intimidation this radical Obama regime has created for Christians, conservatives and other values-oriented folks, both within and without the workplace.
Im just glad the wheels are finally coming off.
Interesting response. I wonder - how much have you been forgiven? I’m sorry, but your attitude speaks of one who knows little about the subject...
Silence will be interpreted as disapproval?
So one can’t just not comment an employee’s sex life but has to praise it?
“Hey Bob do you take it in the ass? Because I think that’s GREAT. I support you.”
And once again only the gays get special treatment? What about the BDSM people? What about the FURRIES? Silence can be interpreted as disapproval you know. Gotta let those furries know that official government policy is that we accept and celebrate the diversity they represent.
That’s between me and our Heavenly Father ... and none of your business.
Reagan from his grave: “ It’s Mourning in America”
“dont know which woman you are referencing, the one that was to be stoned, or the one at the well.
in either case both of these women knew they were being sexually immoral, they didnt have slut pride parades and laws forcing people to commend them for their immorality. they were ashamed and embarrassed by their sexual sins. they were glad for forgiveness, and knew they needed it.
not so with todays homos. they have government saying their sin is awesome, and anyone who doesnt tell them theyre awesome is in trouble. no need to be forgiven for anything, and if you think they do, youre the one with the sin problem - of judging others.
we do judge others. we are not warned never to judge. we are warned to not judge hypocritically. in other words if we have the same weaknesses and we arent addressing our own, but condemn others for doing what were still doing, we are not judging righteously.”
Well said.
