Powerful Speech on LGBT Equality, What It Means to Be a Democrat

[lowkell]

Delivered yesterday to the Democratic Party of Virginia's Central Committee, after days of controversy over Gov. McAuliffe's choice of Richmond Mayor Dwight Jones - who opposes full marriage equality, but is still "evolving" apparently - as the new chair of the Democratic Party of Virginia.

1. Virginia, Terry and Dwight can kiss my ass.

Virginia still enshrines legal discrimination in it's laws. The appointment of Jones was an insulting and intentional attack by Terry Third Way.
I'm not going to listen to any 6 minute speech intended to make bigots feel better because they 'listened to the other side too'.
Terry is what is wrong with this Party, and he's a Clinton product and he is why I'd really rather see Hillary stay home with her own parsing of rights and measured politicizing of right and wrong.
Let's not forget that the hate monger Jones is mayor of Richmond. Elected by thousands of 'Democrats' in that less than kind city.
Fuck them all.
