Another day, another story of a pasty white Republican politician who wants to legalize discrimination against a minority group. Sometimes its women, sometimes its Hispanics or African Americans, sometimes its the poor (not much of a minority anymore). This time its homosexuals.
US Representative Robert Pittenger is from Charlotte North Carolina and he thinks its just fine for a boss to fire an employee because theyre gay. Yup, he said it. And three guesses how he voted in Mondays procedural vote on pay equality for women. Why is he so passionate about defending the private sector right to discriminate against gays? Pittenger says laws that would prevent workplace discrimination and protect gays in the workforce violate the freedoms we enjoy. Uh-huh. Like the freedom to fire somebody because you dont agree with their sexual orientation. The freedom to bully. The freedom to hate. This is from The Charlotte Observer:
As House Democrats made a Hail Mary attempt to force a vote on laws to protect gays in the workplace, Rep. Robert Pittenger, a Charlotte Republican, continued to stand by comments he made earlier this month that businesses should be free to fire employees based on their sexual orientation.
Its incredibly hard to operate or start a business already, and I dont think America is begging for more obstacles to an economic recovery, he said in the statement. Where does it stop? Is the next regulation going to prohibit a layoff even during an economic downturn? Will the next law mandate full employment?
Pittenger stirred up the gay rights debate when he told liberal political blog ThinkProgress this month that governments shouldnt impose on the freedoms we enjoy. Asked his opinion about the Employment Non-Discrimination Act pending in Congress, Pittenger compared adding more laws to protect gays in the workplace to smoking bans which he said are fine for public places, but he questioned the government role when it comes to private spaces.
On Wednesday, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., sought to force the hand of Pittenger, Boehner and other Republican opponents. She joined other Democratic leaders in announcing a procedural push to force a vote on the bill.
Unfortunately, in South Carolina and 28 other states it is still legal to discriminate against people based on their sexual orientation, Assistant Democratic Leader James Clyburn, D-S.C., said Wednesday during a press conference. And that is, plain and simple, wrong. Gay rights activists called Pittengers comments absurd and argued that discrimination in the workplace because of someones sexual orientation goes against American values.
Rep. Pittengers ill-informed opinion is also not consistent with the fair-minded opinion of most Americans, said David Stacy, government affairs director for the Human Rights Campaign, a gay rights organization. The vast majority of Americans back commonsense workplace protections for LGBT Americans.Staffers for Pittenger said theyve received no negative calls about his comments and that no constituents brought the issue up at any of the congressmans 13 town hall events over the last two months.
No negative calls to his office. The right to smoke in private is the same as the right to fire homosexuals for being . . .. homosexual. Why stop with gays, Rep. Pittenger? Dont laws that mandate a pregnant woman cant be fired for her condition violate the employers rights? Or laws that say you have to hire African Americans?
