:P

I don't believe anything happens without "lobbying" and human rights are worth the effort.

Human right are just politics. News to me.

Let's ignore the fact that people graduate high school not knowing how to give change without a calculator and focus on religion. I love Texas.

(I really do, but sometimes....)

On Dallas-Fort Worth schools attempt to integrate Bible literacy into curriculum

Or a mayor who, at the very least, doesn't attend an organization that perpetuates misunderstanding and generalized hate towards LGBT people.

Rick, I don't believe the LGBT community should tell him or anyone where to worship, but Leppert's attendance there does indicate that a different mayor would be in the LGBT's best interest. Unfortunately, Leppert's attendance at First Baptist will probably help assure his tenure.

Do any of these improvements include reflective lane paint?

On Texas Transportation Commission approves $2 billion in highway projects, with none of the largest affecting Dallas or Fort Worth

While I do associate homophobia with the Southern Baptist congregation I grew up in, First Baptist has 1,500+ attendants each Sunday(times TWO for each service) making it a mega-church. As mega-churches are kind of a recent development, Mr Leppert might feel more comfortable somewhere a bit smaller (and maybe less vocal about their interpretation of Leviticus).

If he wanted a church that reminded him of his SB roots, why didn't he pick a smaller Baptist church with a less outspoken pastor? There are quite a few in Dallas. Leppert might have chosen First Baptist Dallas for the familiarity, since there are many other choices, his attendance does smell a little political. His intentions probably didn't include agitating the LGBT community, he obviously did not take them into consideration.

Okay, take "backwoods" out of the comment and a lot of Supreme Court cases still come out of Texas.

On Texas Attorney General tells Rockwall audience he has appealed Dallas judge’s gay divorce ruling

I think she's missing her makeup and her hair needs to be done, but she looks like the kind of person who cleans up well.

On Alleged University Park prostitute arrested again

I hope this case makes it to Washington. Plenty of Backwoods-Texas laws have become awesome Supreme Court rulings.
