17. And check out this quote for cognitive dissonance....
"Protesting is a time-honored American tradition," said Ned Dolejsi, executive director of the California Catholic Conference. Catholic leaders were active in the Yes on 8 campaign. "But it's unfortunate when it steps over into religious bigotry or harassment."

So it's not bigotry or harassment to treat gay people like pariahs, but it is bigotry and harassment to complain when the majority takes away the rights of a minority?

I don't think so. The reign of Bush and newspeak is over.
