269. What is selfish about wanting better economic opportunities for all?
And the references to Nazi Germany that you and others make is a false one.

The sin of the average German was not blocking the granting of equal rights to Jews. The sin lay in accepting the subtraction of existing rights that Jews had always had.

If WCGreen and those of us who actually understand what he is saying were to say, "Let's win by putting in the Democratic platform that no GLBT people may practice licensed professions" THAT would be analogous to what the Nazis proposed and what the German people acquiesced to.
