The Ill-Logic of ENDA

"Last April, Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., co-sponsored the Employee
Non-Discrimination Act, or ENDA, a federal bill that would protect
employees from discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender
identity."

This is still pissing me off bigtime!

Barney Fife can make a lot of noise about how he is putting together the trans portion of the ENDA bill and hopefully gain the respect he lost when he threw us under the bus the first time.

Now there are two bills.  One for the gays and lesbians and one for the trans community.  So if the GL version gets passed and signed all is right with the world, but he only has to pay lipservice to the other bill and if it fails to pass then, oh well we tried, tough time for the trans folks.  They should have been there at stonewall and fought with the gays for their rights.

I am being sarcastic and rude and I apologize to any who were offended.  But I have no respect for barney or hrc.  At least a fundie right Christian minister is consistent of his hatred of us.  You always know where he is coming from.  With barney and the hrc, you cannot trust ANYTHING they say or do.
