Equal access to housing and employment are basic rights, not special rights.

"Civil rights for all Americans, black, white, red, yellow, the rich, poor, young, old, gay, straight, et cetera, is not a liberal or conservative value," Falwell went on to say. "It’s an American value that I would think that we pretty much all agree on."

Yes, that Falwell.

Equal rights are, historically and currently, a liberal value--but if we can get conservatives on board by pointing out that the liberal program is thoroughly American, that's fine with me.
