(62,325 posts)President's policies on LGBT rights. We didn't listen to them then, and he finally got the message, and no one is going to listen to them now, and hopefully with perseverance, the Democrats will find a way to stand up against Bush policies also.
They are always on the wrong side of history but tell you that they are FOR Civil Liberties and Human Rights and FOR the rights of minorities, they just can't stand up for them NOW.. Well, that is BS, there is no bad time to stand up for what is right, and the very BEST time to get the attention of politicians is DURING election season.
Best to ignore them, they are always the same group and if things were left up to them, this country would NEVER move in the right direction because they always have a reason for not standing up, but get angry at those who do.
I don't believe them frankly which I'm sure is of no consequence, but it's the truth. I believe the people who were standing up for LGBT rights when this same group was slamming them. When I see them just once, object to the brutal policies that are still in place, just one time, I will change my opinion. Until then, I stand by my opinion.
