"It was only a few weeks ago that America was lecturing the gay
community about its intolerance for intolerance, for objecting to a
bigot (in fact, an anti-gay activist, Brendan Eich) running a major
American corporation (in this case, the Mozilla Foundation).
Republicans, including gay conservatives, were particularly upset that
anyone would judge a man’s job performance, especially the man running a
company, by his personal animus towards minorities, many of whom would
be his own employees. So long as he didn’t discriminate against his own
employees, he was free to be a bigot, they told us. Now, they’re all
eating crow. Today, even conservatives are saying (on CNN) that the NBA
simply must investigate whether the owner of the Los Angeles Clippers
basketball team, Donald Sterling, made racist remarks to his girlfriend,
who is black and Mexican. Apparently, Donald Sterling made the mistake
of buying a basketball team rather than taking over a high-tech
company." -
