Radical, talk about intolerance and bigotry. I guess that democrat office is the most intolerant office in the US? Or are they all like that?

That’s what I was thinking — good thing they’re so tolerant.

That’s the way Dems are- at least the Dems I know. Very intolerant of people with different viewpoints. And each group that they supposedly tolerate is expected to hew to stereotypes (gays are supposed to be flamboyant, black people soulful, etc)

I HOPE there is a lawsuit over this

I have lost contracts for speaking conservatism.

The party of tolerance is every intolerant

And once they achieve critical mass in spots of authority the rest of us are screwed. The will FIRE you and ruin your life for disagreeing with them

Sounds like the case for employment discrimination lawsuit.

Here gays are specially protected from job and housing discrimination under the term ‘orientation’

“the Democratic Leadership was uncomfortable with [his] friendship with [the Republican aide].”

“The Democratic Party is not as tolerant and accepting as I had thought,”
