"...The Fellowship Foundation, todays event organizer, has worked hand-in-hand with Members of Parliament in foreign lands. Countries like Uganda, where the conservative Christian organization, more widely known as The Family, includes Ugandan MP David Bahati.
Or how about countries like the United States where religion is used to deny employment, housing, and public accommodation protections? Previously, Obama told a National Prayer Breakfast audience We may disagree about gay marriage, but surely we can agree that it is unconscionable to target gays and lesbians for who they are whether its here in the United States or
more extremely in odious laws that are being proposed most recently in Uganda.

(45,319 posts)the Uganda Anti Gay bill, who had been invited. It took concerted effort on the part of sane gay people to convince the administration this was not going to be the same as the Rick Warren love fests, that the President was going to stand with a man seeking pogroms.
