In an interview posted yesterday on Mile High Political Views Blog by Mark Segal, a well-known gay journalist, US Representative Barney Frank is quoted, surprisingly, as suggesting that a gender identity inclusive ENDA may be passed in the next Congress if more Democrats are elected in the November elections. ENDA, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, is a bill that would prohibit employment discrimination based on sexual orientation and, maybe, gender identity. In the last Congress, Frank initially sponsored a bill that included gender identity, and then did an about-face, removing gender identity and placing it in a standalone bill that had little chance of passage. In the interview, Frank suggests that his position may again change.

QuoteMS: Can you give a clue of what you will say when you get up on the podium?
BF: I haven't been invited to speak so I don't think I'll be saying anything. One thing I will say out there at the event. Here's my way to decide for people who are undecided on the tough political issues. Christians have as their motto, "What would Jesus do?" In many cases, it turns out Jesus would have done, according to them, what they would have done in the first place. But I have a version of that. If you are in doubt about a political decision, say to yourself, "What would Chaney do?" and do the opposite.

I'm still miffed at Barney about the whole ENDA thing.  But I have to admit that this guy has wit.

Also it works!
