(67,782 posts)....do NOT try to pin the crappy "despicable attempt to smear someone who is gay" on me, you are WAY off base. You know nothing about my background, family, surroundings, or position on that issue.
Edit - further information:
Greenwald used the fact that the Defense of Marriage Act prevented him from returning to the United States.
However, Attorney General Holder announced four years ago from yesterday, that President Obama considered the DOMA as unconstitutional and directed the Justice Department to stop defending the law in court.
Further, the United States Supreme Court in 2013 declared the DOMA unconstitutional.
Greenwald's reason (aka "excuse"
for not living in the United States hasn't existed in practice for four years, and hasn't existed in law for almost two years.
Trying to use his bogus reason for not living in the US (even while he continually takes pot shots at the country of HIS citizenship) to accuse me of a "despicable attempt to smear someone who is gay" is even more despicable.
