Republicans...RINO just does not cover the situation. Try describing them as DIABLO (Democrat in all but label only)!

What if a gay guy hits someone with his purse? Is that a hate crime?

The Left and its minions can go to Hell.

Only if you say it this way:

The Left and its SISSY minions can go to Hell.

One thing is for sure, an attack on a white, Christian, heterosexual is not, and never will be, a hate crime.

Using their logic, that would be legal and deserving if the person was straight.

Laws need to be “neutral”. Once you get into trying to interpet what someone was thinking you open up a big can of worms. There may come a day the left is sorry they went down this road.

Can someone point me to the authority under Article I Section 8 which makes this Constitutional? It is seeming to escape me.

Does this bill protect Fox News from irrational hatred by the Obama Administration?

And if a sexual-minority assaults a normal person, he/she/it will go scot free.

And the RNC wonders why their letters end up in the circular file.

When will the first religious person be arrested? And when will the people who are jury members be told that they have the authority to declare any law unconstitutional and find anyone not guilty of an unconstitutional non law and that they should never listen to what they are told to do when they are aware of the so called law being unconstitutional?

We don’t need no thought control

It's not "thought contorol". It's just "regulating interstate commerce".

Did liberals ever hear of equal protection under the law? I assume the ACLU will challenge this.

The feds can’t secure our borders or prevent infanticide (legitimate health & safety concerns) but they are apparently prepared to devote police powers/assets to cruise homosexual bars looking for straight bullies (guys like you and me, minding our own business) while using their state of the art Magic 8-balls to read our minds so that Perez Hilton doesn’t get his azz kicked or feelings hurt(queerwelfare).
OK, situation normal inside the beltway!

I spent around four hours emailing each senator, so needless to say...

There are two YouTube links having to do with oligarchy, democracy and a republican form of government. The first is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhNobpG_4fQ . The video makes it clear, in simple terms, why our (past) republic was so unusual.

I still have some hope for the 2010 and 2012 elections. If not, then we will relearn what we should have known by 1989: that socialism is tyranny and doesn’t work.
