Representative Richard Anderson, (R), of course, Clarinda, introduced a bill which would allow discrimination against gays in housing, jobs, and services on "religious grounds". The bill is dead for now, but may resurface later. And the Governor apparently supports this piece of crap bill as well. Details at www.wqad.com. Just click on the story on the front page. These people are just fucked up.

I was kind of hoping not to have to fight so hard in 2012 but these morons just keep getting elected. :grr:
Watching that clip, I wanted to reach into my screen and shove...oh, never mind.

2. Never mind that it would probably not pass Constitutional muster |

Anderson sounds like he was cut from the same cloth of stupid that a large part of Arizona's government was cut from. Despite what these teabaggers think, such a law would probably run head first into the Supremacy Clause.
