WASHINGTON — After getting hired as a national security analyst with the Library of Congress, David Schroer took his new boss out to lunch to share some news: On his first day of work, he planned to show up as Diane.

The next day the job offer was withdrawn, and Schroer says it was a clear case of discrimination.

"In 24 hours, I had gone from a welcome addition to the staff to someone who was 'not a good fit' because I was a woman," Schroer told a House subcommittee Thursday. "Hero to zero in 24 hours."

Schroer took center stage Thursday as Congress made history with its first hearing on discrimination against transgender employees.

QuoteWith gender identity being totally subjective, who could challenge any male who says he wants to use a woman's restroom?" Lavy asked.

Good Lord, what a dumb question. Well, ummmm a MAN wouldn't use the womens room, doofus!! But if a woman feels the need then she will. Jeez, you would think that people could grasp something so simple and basic.

Umm, we're talking about Congress, Christians and reporters.  Not exactly the wunderkids of reason.
