They also shot down amendments that would protect the homeless and senior citizens, also often targeted by criminals. Nothing doing, the committee said—the only group they wanted to protect: homosexuals.

Nope, nothing there to suggest that Democrats in Congress are simply catering to a wealthy special interest group, no siree.

If this Bawney Fwank bill passes, Bush will have to get out that rusty veto pen again now that he seems to be catching on to how it works.

“and Big Brother will be watching you and me—ready to punish the “wrong” thoughts”

Don’t plea bargain. Demand a jury trial. Ever heard of jury nullification? Juries don’t have to enforce a law they think is unjust. Its a last ditch protection given us by our Republic’s founding fathers.

Some animals are more equal than others and get special protections under the law that are not granted to the politically incorrect party members.

SURPRISE! Big Brother is already watching you!

This is the Post-Enlightenment--or Anti-Enlightenment: Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of thought--in fact, liberty itself--are scorned and oppressed. Conformity is diversity. Freedom is oppression. Groupthink is liberalism. Newspeak is the language of the free press and the university. War is peace. Love is hate.

Orwell was a prophet.

In 2005, out of 863,000 cases of aggravated assault, just 177 cases were crimes of bias against homosexuals—far less than even 1 percent.

Since homosexuals make up about 1-2 percent of the population they are just getting their fair share of the assaults. If you believe the gay propaganda that the population is 10 percent then homosexuals are getting far fewer assaults than the general population.

This garbage, I believe, would be the brainchild of the Michigan Stalinist John Conyers.

This guy is dirty up to his eyeballs and has verifiable connections to both moonbat and communist organizations. It shouldn’t be too difficult for Republicans to bury him in his own Marxist statements and actions.
