Obama offers 'open door' to gender-confused
One News NoW ^ | 11/11/2008 | Jim Brown

Posted on 11/11/2008 2:45:43 PM PST by IbJensen

Peter LaBarberaA conservative activist is expressing alarm over president-elect Barack Obama's plan to expand a Clinton-era executive order that provides special protections for federal employees based on their sexual behavior.

The Obama-Biden transition team has included both "sexual orientation" and "gender identity" in its non-discrimination policy for applicants for employment in the incoming Obama administration. President Bush, much to the chagrin of many social conservatives, did not overturn Bill Clinton's executive order prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. However, the Clinton order does not address so-called gender identity.

Word of Obama's planned executive order has excited his allies on the left. Christopher Anders, senior legislative counsel with the American Civil Liberties Union, says "president-elect Obama and vice president-elect Biden, by explicitly rejecting the bigotry and intolerance of the past, are committing that gay, lesbian, and transgender professionals can serve in government without fear of discrimination."

gender confusion smallPeter LaBarbera, president of Americans for Truth About Homosexuality, says Obama's new non-discrimination policy will be an "open door" for gender-confused and cross-dressing federal employees.

"What's the Obama administration going to do to protect women in federal restrooms?" the activist asks. "Since men [wearing] dresses apparently are going to be protected under gender-identity provisions, what about the women in the restrooms in the White House and other federal buildings? What's going to be done to protect their rights?"

LaBarbera even wonders if there is going to have to be a new federal outlay for the building of new "gender-free, transgender restrooms."

The president-elect has been a supporter of a version of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) that offers special protections for transgender employees.

He means an open back door - his.

Obomba will have candy dishes filled with fudge.

Instead of placing homosexuals on pedestals, the citizenry had better get busy reading about how homosexuals get their jollies.

Additionally, they need to become informed about the vast majority of serial killers who were homosexuals.

So, now we can tell the children where to shove the batteries in the Ken doll. First it was BJ’s, and now this.

Thank you for your lack of morals, United States Government.

"Gay" is an emotionally pleasing word. It's like "Joy" or "happy". People are less likely to be repulsed by it.

That's why we need to call these people "Homosexuals." Homosexual is an emotionally repulsive word, and people will reject it.

Calling something by it's REAL name is the shortest path to wisdom.

Take "Choice" for example. Gosh, what a liberating word. Of course a woman can do what she wants with her own body. (I repeat - her own body)

Abortion or infant dismemberment isn't so pleasant. It brings the mind back to the real issue - The babys body !!!

"Obama's planned executive order has excited his allies on the left."

Just what we need,

If Obama is serious, he should appoint gender confused people as ambassadors to Muslim nations.

lots of guffawing on here, but this is a serious issue.

the attorneys are lining up. This will be a major free speech issue.

Here’s how it goes... They define what you can say. They prosecute you for criticizing homosexuality. They come into the schools and churches (particularly the Catholic Church) and tell you you can’t criticize the homosexual lifestyle. They promote the homosexual lifestyle to the very young, etc. etc. etc.

Vitriol?

Hussein most likely had homosexual encounters in the past, and according to “gay” activtists - once a homo, always a homo.
