I am tired, tired, tired of bad news. Hey Federal workers! The new Bushee appointee of Office of Special Counsel, in from faith-based initiatives, is reversing discrimination protection for gays!

The new Special Counsel, Scott Bloch, (appointed by Bush from Faith-based initiatives
http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2003/06/20030626-6.html) has re-interpreted a 1978 law regarding sexual orientation and such acts as attending a gay rights rally. This seems in contrast with OPM rulings, or at least will until the next appointee reinvents the law.

References to sexual orientation protections are being yanked off of web sites and other materials as we speak.

Notice that the man gets his law degree from the heart of the bible belt. Fuckers. people wouldn't know acceptance if it jumped up and shit in their faces.

Best part for me is that his history is of doing civil rights law, employment law, and legal ethics. I suppose those might be cover terms for trying to destroy each of the above?

Wow, that pretty much belies the whole "love the sinner, hate the sin" conard. They can't fire you for engaging in homosexual activities, but they can for just being gay.

I'm curious to see how they hope to prove someone is gay without citing some sort of homosexual activities. "I'm not gay, I'm trade..."
