Yeah, I heard about that as well.  

I have before made the point before that the left leads the way towards the moral decline in America.  My kiid refers to it as the "Rise of Government produces decline of Morailty".  
Moral values assist a person in deciding between right and wrong and effects all life's outcome's.  The left fails to identify what is right or wrong, in many cases they just support what is wrong.  Just like in this case, I ask how can they promote something that is not even reflective of 1% of the citizens and then push that on to the rest of us.  Sure I can see laws that protect this 1%, but not laws that allow that 1% special treatment over the 99%.  
With the left you even get more and more Goverment, and more and more goverment You get a loss of responsibility.  This government intervention in the economy and personal life have undermined personal responsibility and leads to moral decay.  There is more and more hopeless people, more dependents, outright parasites, and more yes, more and more crime and loss a morals.
