President Barack Obama on Monday will sign an executive order banning workplace discrimination against gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender workers of federal contractors and the federal government.The executive order has two components: It prohibits federal contractors from discriminating against employees based on sexual orientation or gender identity and it explicitly bans discrimination against federal employees based on their gender identity. To the relief of the LGBT community, there is no sweeping religious exemption in the executive order. Obama is simply adding the categories of sexual orientation and gender identity to an existing executive order that protects employees of federal contractors from discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin.
However there is one snafu.
George W. Bush amended that executive order in 2002 to allow religiously affiliated federal contractors to prioritize hiring employees of their particular religion and Obama is keeping that language intact.”Obama’s executive order does not modify that Bush exemption,”
Hmmm. I think he should have removed that provision. That rat bastard Bush whack was probably the most evil president to the LGBT thus far…. That sound you hear is the shit exploding in the panties of Tony Perkins & Brian Brown’s….Happy Friday! lols
