Barack Obama's proposed national health care plan will offer free sex change operations and require commercial plans to cover the surgical procedure if they do not already do so.
"Instead of allowing insurance to compete by offering different benefit packages, the Democrats are considering insurance mandates to cover exotic benefits that individuals may not want to buy such as [....] sex change operations," writes lawyer and conservative political analyst Phyllis Schlafly.

She of course being the woman who has made a full time career from running around and telling women they should not have full time careers.
I don't believe it but I trust you guys will let me know where to sign up if it turns out to be true, hm?
Thanks a bunch!
It's not exactly on the table in the health care debate, but then again, neither is health care to be sure.
If it is one of the benefits, be prepared to have a long waiting list.
I doubt it. The demand is not that high. It might seem like it if you read these posts here, but in the world there are only a few people doing it full time, if there were more of a demand, there would be far more doctors doing it.
Sometimes waiting and getting results is better than waiting and still not being able to afford things. You know, generally speaking, like every facet of healthcare in this country if you don't have insurance.
I'd just be concerned by the quality of the work done, obviously an operation like that is worth ever penny for the best results.
edit: Also 'sex-swap' is just obnoxious. Makes it sound like people could just go back and forth whenever they wanted to because the demoncrats are using our taxes to pay for it. ::)
Why does this read like the "bathroom" strategy taken to health-care re-form? Especially coming through Schafly?
Just because old (and damn she's getting old) Schafly was wrong about three or four thousand times before, maybe she got this one right!

Over here it's a two year wait. I'm not basing this on a forum, but a government that actually pays for these operations.
It will be interesting to see how far they go with this if it does pass into law and how long it will take :icon_chick:
The Xtian Reich will never let it get that far. They will find a way to kill it.
To pay for it we need to get rid of the Tax Exempt Status for Religious groups.

So is this what you mean by "wing-nut,?" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phyllis_Schlafly. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phyllis_Schlafly.)
If so,I try to avoid these types at GOP events.
Janet, The Xtian Reich ....
We Christians will embrace "witches" right after you stop using minors as sex offerings during your devil worship ceremonies.
As a practical matter. This could be added to both the House and Senate versions of the bills by way of the Amendment process. Anyone know of any Trans friendly Reps and Senators?
If so,I try to avoid these types at GOP events.
Good luck, they pretty much own the party. You might try hanging with a) the reporters, or b) the people protesting outside.
I was propelled to check my undies size. Oh, size 4 (xs) still.....OK :laugh:

From the wikipedia article:
QuoteCritics of Schlafly have emphasized an apparent contradiction between her advocacy against the ERA and her role as a working professional. Feminist activist Gloria Steinem and author Pia de Solenni, among others, have noted what they consider irony in Schlafly's role as an advocate for the full-time mother and wife, while being herself a lawyer, editor of a monthly newsletter, regular speaker at anti-liberal rallies, and political activist. In her review of Schlafly's Feminist Fantasies, de Solenni writes that "Schlafly's discussion reveals a paradox. She was able to have it all: family and career. And she did it by fighting those who said they were trying to get it all for her... Happiness resulted from being a wife and mother and working with her husband to reach their goals." Schlafly has also been accused of racism, due to her opposition of racial integration in the 1960s and for a contempt of Jewish people.
Yes, that Schlafly.
Harlan Ellison had many choice things to say about her as well.

Harlen Ellision had a lot of things to say about all sorts of people. I miss him.

I certainly hope that was meant as a joke ;) , because it never happened. That is like some saying that we can not change our gender, because it is in the DNA. While we can not alter the DNA, but the mind is a powerful thing.
And when I refer to the Xtian Reich, it is not the individual Christians. It is to refer to the Ultra Right Wing Conservative Holy-than-thou groups. My G/F happens to be Christian. And they have the money and power to stop any true human rights laws.

Janet,
That was my first use of what, I from now on will refer to as the "nuclear option."
When one paints all Christians with the same brush, from now on I will make similar observations. Even when there is only one such case that I know of, personally, within the Wiccan faith community.
OK, Hmmm :eusa_think: We went from Financed GRS to religious stuff ??? Yeeeeeeah, dat's da way we's does it :laugh:

So why'd you embrace the Catholics?
They're not devil worshippers. >:-) They are very misguided regarding clergy celibiacy however.
So, putting the 8 ball in the corner pocket has nothing to do with Golf ???
Dang!!! do I feel silly now....
Martin Luther and John Calvin figured this out some 450+ years ago.

'Cause it was a religious type what wrote the article in order to scare the faithful.
"Now I lay me down to sleep.
I pray the Lord my soul to keep.
If I turn gay before I wake,
I pray the Lord my soul to take."
And remember, Johnny, "The ->-bleeped-<--man will get you if you don't watch out."
Oh, I didn't catch that part of it before. So it was an article written against us :P

They sexually sacrifice little boys (sometimes the nuns do little girls) and they worship female divinity (Mary is not god) while claiming Christianity. And they worship the pope, who's kind of like the anti-christ.
They're pretty much heretics.
I hope this is true.
But probably it's not. The Obama administration is not as LGBT friendly as I was hoping.
