How about “federal” protections for Christians? the Bill of Rights was supposed to do that but who pays attention to the constitution anymore?

Why should people get special treatment based on who they choose to have sex with? How do you prove who you like to have sex with? Not sure I want to know the answer.

“We urge Republicans and Democrats to once again come together to support this important legislation that provides the same protections to LGBT people as other Americans,” the two attorneys added.

Never.

Surely Barbara Olson would turn over in her grave.

Not content with overturning the will of hundreds of millions of people with a fraudulent decision by the Supreme Court, they now want to turn what is a class of criminals into a protected class, as if they had no free will in determining their own actions.

Poor Ted lost his mind in 2001. Sad to see.

Lifestyle choices are not “protected classes” and are undeserving of “non discrimination” laws. Freedom of association trumps any statutory “rights” nor should governments be trampling the rights of those who oppose those choices.

What gives with Olson? Has he made his “lifestyle choice”?

Why wasn’t Ted on that flight instead of Barbara?

How about protecting pedophiles? We are on a slippery slope.

Just what we need, another protected group.

“That’s why we support the idea of a comprehensive approach to non-discrimination protections that would embrace LGBT people as other groups who are protected by our [unconstitutional] civil rights laws.”

Fixed it.

So, Ted Olson was actually a Prog pro-murder guy all along?

No more. I'm not voting for Republicans anymore.

Obama’s executive order will require all company employees to undergo inclusivity training and to sign a document affirming that they approve of homosexuality and same-sex marriage. Those who fail to sign the document must be terminated for exhibiting homophobia in violation of the civil rights laws.

Barbara Olson would roll over in her grave if she knew what this turd blossom was up to.

Pederasty is a terrible crime, and so is murder. But we already protect those that murder an unborn child. What about those that kill an infant, a teenager, an elderly person, or a senior citizen? Language abuse is a terrible thing and the left uses it to their advantage until it comes back to bite them.
