In my post last week regarding the Traditional Values Coalition's Andrea Lafferty expressing pride with TVC being designated as an anti-gay hate group, I failed to detail what precipitated Lafferty's bizarre joy.
Earlier in the week, she penned a piece for Washington D.C.'s Roll Call about ENDA (the Employment Non-Discrimination Act), including mentioning negative anecdotes about transgender teachers in the school system- anecdotes which were fully refuted.
Lafferty's piece caught the attention of Dr. Jillian T. Weiss, an associate professor of law and society at Ramapo College of New Jersey and associate editor at the Bilerico Project, an LGBT political blog.
