Today is Tartan Day in the New Hampshire House, the annual holiday when House members of Scottish heritage and sympathies bust out their plaids, and many men sport kilts.
The day begins with a re-vote on the transgender rights bill.
The bill, which opponents have dubbed the "bathroom bill, " failed two weeks ago. It would ban discrimination by landlords, employers and others against individuals who were born into one sex but who identify as the other.
Yes, that's right: Today, a proud tribe that some deride as men in skirts just might debate the rights of a proud tribe that critics decry as . . . men in skirts.
Ba-doom tsshh!
That's just totally insane!

I hate plaid. Can I wear a fushia, satin kilt?
WOO!..
Also, I want a leather Utilikilt!
Those things are Awesome.
I'm glad to see that its just not Texas and California that have State Ledgs that closely resemble a clown car. Minus the car.
