According to the Chicago Tribune, a new hate crimes bill, which the House passed yesterday, has some folks in the religious community upset. Many say the President already has plans to veto the bill.

It is a tricky bill, for instance, some say “A pastor could be held liable for giving a sermon against homosexuality if a listener later attacked a gay individual.” This would explain why the President is against it… This means he could be held liable for giving any of his speeches since many of them could drive a listener to try and attack him.

It’s a double edged sword, but it does explain why “103 agents reportedly are being hired to guard George W. Bush — after he leaves office.”
