Sen. Patrick Leahy Withdraws Amendment To Include Gay Couples In Immigration Reform Bill

[Bluenorthwest]

51. To be effectively patronizing it is necessary to understand the subject at hand.

The fact that you have no idea what we are talking about at all is displayed here when you say
"It's not like the door is permanently shut on marriage equality just because it's not part of this bill."

This bill would not create marriage equality, it is not about marriage equality it is about fairness in the immigration process. Your lack of understanding about what is contained in the bill in question certainly does not inhibit your desire to lecture others who do understand it, because you feel superior to those others.
The 'more like yourself' means straight people, the protected class in this legislation. The only people who count as people are people like yourself.
All of your bullshit about 'support' is just something you tell yourself because no one else buys it. Only actions count. And your action is to leap forward to defend legislation you don't even understand. That is who you are.
You are willing to let those unlike yourself be deprived of rights so that those like yourself can have them. That's the bargain your straight community is making again. What is lost is not 'purity' is justice, equality, and human rights for millions of people. At least own your actions like an adult.
