National security advisor: ‘America’s support for LGBT rights’ is a ‘global enterprise’

National Security Advisor Susan Rice said on June 24 that “America’s support for LGBT rights is not just a national cause but it’s also a global enterprise.”

“President Obama has specifically directed that American diplomacy and American assistance promote and protect the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender men and women, all around the world,” she said in an address to the first White House Forum on Global LGBT Human Rights.

“Universal human rights are not bestowed by governments or powerful majorities, they are God’s gift and the birth right of all people,” she added. “They belong to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender men and women as surely as they belong to anyone in the human family. As President Obama has said so eloquently, ‘If we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well.’”

She continued:

So protecting our LGBT brothers and sisters is among the most challenging human rights issues we face. Prejudice has deep roots, and the laws limiting gay rights frequently enjoy strong popular support … For the faith community, how can we reinforce to religious groups that God loves all the children of his creation equally? For the human rights community, how can we help activists work together to advance social justice for everyone? Because, if you care about equal rights for women or ethnic or religious minorities, you should care about LGBT human rights too. It’s all the same.

start their own...the LGBT party, and see how many votes they get.

Well, they do make up 1.5% of the US population doncha know? If even that % isn't an exaggeration, as I think it is, they should be able to elect at least a few of their own depraved kind to the U.S. Congress and Senate.

Oh right, they've already done that in a few districts in CA and several other ultra-liberal states such as NY and MA. It's not just coincidence that those and similar other states also gave Obama their electoral college votes and are responsible for the unmitigated disaster that his administration has been and whatever the next administration will be if any Democrat or liberal Rino follows him into that office. God help us, or much more importantly, our children and all our progeny.
