GOP on the Wrong Side of the LGBT issue... again

Democrats Ask Boehner To Back Off His 'Direct Assault' On Gay Veterans | ThinkProgress

The takeaway:
This intervention once again puts the House of Representatives on the wrong side of the future – supporting discrimination, unfairness, and the denial of basic equality to all Americans. - Democratic House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (CA) and Whip Steny Hoyer (MD)
The House of Representatives is showing once again that they are locked in an ideological iron box.  It is locked from the inside and they refuse to open it. In that box is their certitude that 'the gay' is an abomination and must be opposed or eliminated at any cost. This flies in the face of the American constitution, Christian morality, equality before the law and just plain fairness.  The profound and stubborn ignorance on the part of these ideologically bound autocrats would lead America into a 'New Medieval' age of persecutions, witch hunts, and ignorance. Enough.

More work to do.
