... “The lawyer for the solicitor general’s office for the administration said today in the Supreme Court if it would be legal, possible for a baker to put a sign in his window saying we don’t bake cakes for gay weddings,” The New York Times‘s Michael Shear asked. “Does the president agree that that would be ok?”

“The president certainly supports religious liberty and that’s something he talked about during the campaign and has upheld since taking office,” Sanders replied.

When pressed on whether that included support for signs that deny service to gay people, Sanders responded: “I believe that would include that” ....

... “The administration came out in support of the baker’s freedom of expression in yesterday’s Supreme Court case,” NBC’s Peter Alexander said to Sanders. “I guess I’m asking, why are athletes’ rights to express themselves freely any different than the baker’s?”

Sanders replied, “We are pleased with the Supreme Court’s decision. The First Amendment prohibits government from discriminating against the basis of religious beliefs, and the Supreme Court rightly concluded that the Colorado Civil Rights Commission failed to show tolerance and respect for his religious beliefs. In this case and others the Department of Justice will continue to vigorously defend the free speech and religious freedom First Amendment rights.”

Alexander pressed on, asking, “So if the White House supports the baker’s right of free speech, Why doesn’t the White House support the players’ right to free speech?”

“The president doesn’t think that this is an issue simply of free speech,” Sanders responded. “He thinks it’s about respecting the men and women of our military, it’s about respecting our national anthem, and it’s about standing out of pride for that” ...

... Sanders’ father, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, came to her defense. “Bigotry. On the menu at Red Hen Restaurant in Lexington VA. Or you can ask for the ‘Hate Plate’. And appetizers are ‘small plates for small minds,’” he tweeted.

This from the same guy who just a few hours earlier tweeted a racist taunt at House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi ...

I’m sorry Sanders was asked to leave a restaurant — that is an embarrassing moment for anyone. But she (and all Republicans) must realize that her constant hypocrisy and her decision to use a government account to call out the “injustice” are the exact reasons why she was asked to leave in the first place. Those are two things she has control over, unlike two gay people who just want to get married ...
