    The problem is that gays see any reference to their lifestyle as hate mail

    Some do, like GLAAD, it's their whole reason for being - hence the "Duck Dynasty scandal."

    So do Christians... and every other group that thinks they are right, and everybody else is wrong. It's a matter of opinion at best. Until you put those opinions to action.

    You are right though Clete, more Americans and people of conscious embrace gay people as humans with the same rights as everyone else. No more or less a sinner that anyone else. Live your life style and have equal protection under the law. What's wrong with that?

    Nah, no one holds a candle to leftist grievance mongers and haters.

    Sorry Tal you won't get me to endorse such life styles, you know for a very large percentage of the world's population such life styles are anathema, I will go with the majority as being more discerning and for the record speech neither do I endorse the leftist ideas of the environmental lobby or the extreme right wing ideas of the NRA. I don't endorse violent protests by anyone. We don't need income redistribution what we need is equity. We should pay the janitor more than the CEO afterall he has to get his hands dirty

    How about we make the CEO do the janitor's job, too.

    A CEO should get out among the workers, they can identify problems he is not being told about, and it is hoped that part of the path to being a CEO included some meniel tasks along the way. I don't believe in a graduate being parachuted into a top job

    So you equate homosexuality with those. I guess that's your problem right there. You need to stay out of people's personal lives. Those other things are criminal acts against other people. I realize you don't see the difference but millions of us do.

    Nope, no one hold a candle to the righty grievance mongers and haters. This board and many like it are excellent examples.

    At least they're required to tell us if our info might have been compromised, the regime doesn't have to. But come on Tal, we've known this for months now, how in the heck can we trust a government that puts our personal data at risk that egregiously?

    Maryland, the state that comes close to matching Oregon's ineptitude for it's Obamacare exchange website, the state whose site was directing people to other states - is now directing them to a Seattle Pottery store.

    Way to go, guys, good job.

    when you have nothing to say, better to say nothing at all. The web has a way of confusing addresses particularly when assisted

    Sorry, it's garbage in, garbage out - and these exchange sites were nothing but garbage.

    I get the idea that there was a whole lot of garbage associated with the ACA implementation and it might take some time for it all to become obvious. This is what you get when you have a program drawn up by a committee with the help of the industry. if you want to kill something, you first stuff it up......................

    The "program" as your calling it (ACA) is legislation seperate from the implimentation portion. The people that created the mess were corny's of number 2. That is mostly what this mess is about. Had they gotten honest people to do the work in the first place they would have had something that would work. But instead they gave out a sweetheart deal to friends of Michele and we get this mess to deal with. It is absolutley dumbfounding.
