The New Dominion: 'Stop making us feel guilty for being bigots'

They really couldn't possibly sound any more ridiculous than this.

Also, why is it that the term “progressive” has been made synonymous with the word “liberal”? I guess that’s also another way of guilt-tripping conservatives - guilt-trip them for their apparent lack of forward movement. Tradition and simplicity have no place in a “progressive” society.

According to at least one blogger I’ve seen, if you prefer to have a white male as a roommate, you’re also a racist.

First off, YES stating a racial preference for your roommate DOES (at least in my book) make you a racist. Second, What I want to know is what the hell is it with Conservatives tripping themselves up lately? That Capitol Hill staffer could have easily avoided this entire thing had he been intelligent/experienced enough to know when you work in politics you DON'T send out emails to random people stating your name, what you do for a living, and RACIAL PREFERENCES when it comes to roommates.

Regardless, I guess "tradition and simplicity" also means only wanting to associate with people exactly like yourself now, huh?
