re: USC's Pat Haden, citing gay son, won't attend meeting in Indiana

As a baby boomer who was a Republican back in the early 70's, I am certainly no far left wing radical. But even I understand that this issue goes way beyond someone having the ability to buy a gay cupcake. Much like blacks demonstrating against having to sit in the back of a bus, drink from a separate water fountain, the big picture is what this is about. I find it amusing that white male politicians...for the most part...feel that they are qualified to define what is & what is not discrimination for blacks, Hispanics, women, gays, Jews, etc. The first group has probably had, literally, no form of discrimination shoved down their throats in their entire life. Whereas, the latter group has lived with it, day after day year after year their entire lives.
