H.J.Res.89

I can not beleive all this that I read! Are we hypocriticals or what? We have been a country that discriminated for centuries. Look at civil rights movement, womens equality and all that. Now we propose a bill to discriminate against homosexuality! IT'S INSANE! When is enough, enough! Let the GLBT community have their rights, just like any human being should. We are quick to preach to others, specially foreign nations but look at us hypocriticals. It's a shame!

It is ludicrious that we would allow a bill like that to actually become law! If need be, the president would not have a chance to take appropriate (I mean it appropriate) measures to secure the american people before he/she ask congress for permission to strike. The president is the commander-in-chief of the United Stated of America. He should have the ability to protect us against all of our enemies, specially a terrorist country like Iran.
