After voting against LGBT civil rights, Omaha's Mayor is now helping to "re-educate" about civil rights

Virtually all politicians are duplicitous, but Mayor Jean Stothert's reservoir of disingenuous­ness is so large it may soon begin to affect the tides.
     Below is the shame­less statement from Omaha's mayor being used to promote a program celebrating the 50th anniversary of the civil rights act.
     Although Stothert (then on the city council) was not successful in completely blocking Omaha's LGBT rights ordinance, she did manage to help ensure that it was completely stripped of housing protections for LGBTs.
