If I Could Have the New York Daily News’s Baby, I Would

Ten Years and Three Days After Black Wednesday

As someone remarked on Twitter a few minutes ago: “I hope you know that if I see a red hat like that I’m immediately put on edge.”

HRC and its marketers must be presumed to know.

And they must be presumed to not give a damn.

Tomorrow is the Tenth Anniversary of Black Wednesday

A question for LGBT America: Have you seen your ENDA lately?

If you don’t have the answer, ask a Quisling near you.

Two Years Ago: Obergefell v. Hodges

…and then 18 months later, tens (hundreds?) of thousands of those who ramrodded the want of marriage ahead of the basic employment-centric anti-discrimination needs of all LGBTs – including those who might not be coupled – on the national civil rights agenda voted for Trump out of lower-tax greed.

Marriage Derangement Syndrome is as Marriage Derangement Syndrome does.

When Illegitimate Justice Gorsuch writes the opinion that erases marriage equality, I will laugh at every gay Republican who whines.

Has the Future Already Been Forgotten? A Post-2007 Transgender Legal History Told Through the Eyes of the Late, (Rarely) Great Employment Non-Discrimination Act

The article is now available on the website of the William & Mary Journal of Women and the Law.  Please read before all of the pro-HRC revisionist crap is shoveled into officially-approved discourse this fall.

Fake Repeal

Legislators and Gov. Roy Cooper hailed Thursday’s HB2 repeal bill as a compromise. In fact, it is nothing of the kind.

HB142 is not a repeal of HB2.

It is merely a renaming of it.  Christianists, TERFs and Milo the Pedo continue to have everything they desire from North Carolina law (short of a literal license to kill trans people on sight.)

Well That About Wraps it Up for the ACLU

Questions for the ACLU:

Did you ask LGBTs in Alabama for their input on that?

Who the f*#% wrote it?  Barney “We had three items and there was only room for two” Frank?

If the ACLU is making this a zero-sum game, then its time to close up the constitutional shop and let #DonTheCon put his implants in our brains.

A REAL (read: non-gerrymandered-Republican-fake-majority) Congress would have the time and energy to deal with anti-LGBT and anti-Muslim concerns.  THIS Congress would like to see all members of both groups up against the wall.  Hell, thus far the only time the current Congress has had anything close to an inclination to do anything other than kneel before #DonTheCon with an open mouth has been standing up to the Puzder nomination.

ACLU: EPIC FAIL!

Memo to the Washington Blade

DOJ nixes request to halt order against trans student protections

The time has come to officially retract the (even-in-2012-nonsensical) position espoused in:

Trans Americans enjoy robust bias protections

If you want to regain some credibility, you’ll allow me to write the retraction op-ed.

40 Days ‘Til Jan. 20, 2017

I’m still waiting for my ENDA, Joe.
