Quote of the Day

Lech Walesa, Nobel Peace prize winner for fighting for democracy in Poland in the 1980’s, sounding a lot like the Soviet oppressors he helped defeat when it comes to gay rights:

They have to know that they are a minority and must adjust to smaller things.  And not rise to the greatest heights, the greatest hours, the greatest provocations, spoiling things for the others and taking (what they want) from the majority.  I don’t agree to this and I will never agree to it.  A minority should not impose itself on the majority.

So much for Polish solidarnosc.

  1. They have to know that they are a minority and must adjust to smaller things.

    Isn’t that rather what the Polish Central Committee once told him about labor?
