North Carolina Republicans don't consider sexual orientation worth protecting

gaywrites:

At their state party convention last weekend, the North Carolina Republicans adopted a new state party platform that outlined its opposition to “all forms” of discrimination. The passage in question reads:

“Government should treat all citizens impartially, without regard to wealth, race, ethnicity, disability, religion, sex, political affiliation or national origin. We oppose all forms of invidious discrimination. … 

Sexual orientation is not an appropriate category.”

Essentially, the party is completely contradicting itself by saying it seeks to protect all citizens - except gay ones. (And can we point out that “wealth” is the first category they think to mention? Not “socioeconomic status” or even race, but wealth?)
