    Privacy, indeed

    Oh sure, when a right winger's daughter gets pregnant, we need to respect her privacy, but when the right wingers want to change the Constitution to discriminate against gays (ain't one's sexuality a private matter too?), then privacy flies out of the window. Or when a gay servicemember wants to serve their country, their sexuality becomes a reason for discharge, regardless of their performance. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
