There was an article in yesterday's Washington Post written by someone who was responsible for vetting refugees who wanted to come to the U.S. He pointed out it takes about two years for them to go through the process and that the vetting is pretty comprehensive.

Pointing out how many people believe that selling a cake for a same-sex wedding is unconscionable religious persecution?
That bakery? Is very close to where I live. I told my kids, I'd rather a Costco or grocery store cake over them giving him any business.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Also, you're allowed to disagree with the president on more than one issue. You can dislike fiscal policy AND treatment of the LGBT.

Nah, he specifically mentioned bakeries and said they shouldn't be forced to sell their product to people they have religious disagreements with.
