Here at NetRoots Nation, I listened to the answer to a the answer Speaker Of The House Nancy Pelosi gave to an ENDA question posed to her. It was a gimmie that she was going to take credit for the gimmie of -- the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community practically done deal requirement of -- fully inclusive hate crime legislation.

Then she talked about the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) legislation. After talking about federal hate crimes legislation, Speaker Pelosi began talking "time tables," how more education work by and for transgender people for reluctant house members, and how Don't Ask, Don't Tell (DADT) was moved ahead of ENDA, even though ENDA was her "top priority" LGBT issue.
