Amanda Simpson Says It Was Her Merits, Not Gender Identity, That Got Her Commerce Job
For Amanda Simpson, believed to be America's first openly transgender presidential appointee, the job she starts Tuesday in the U.S. Commerce Department is an honor and the culmination of a career dedicated to understanding military technology.
But what gnaws at her, she says, is the fear of being labeled a token who was hired because of her sexual identity rather than on her merits.

Or how about FUGLY? or GUILTY!?
Amanda, don’t you know that all of us, including yourself and your appointer, know you’re a token?
Freak. There’s no other way to state it.
Or how about “Fruitcake”, “Insane”, or just plain “Repulsive”?
If the shoe fits...
GOD help us.
The majority of us have not done anything to deserve the utter destruction of America.
PLEASE help us. AMEN
There fixed it.
The name is already taken.
So, just say no.
Crawl back to where you were and forget it.
There you go! Freak, and she had to sacrifice a body part I treasure to qualify as a freak. How dim can a Dim be?
Token shemale ?
That’s a new one.
So there were other transsexual officials before who were just really good at hiding it?
I prefer “pervert freak”.
While that may be absolutely true, it would be ANOTHER FIRST!
Unvetted and unknown, we have a POtuS in the White House that is a complete cipher. All the idiots in the country who keep referring to Obama as a genius because he was “the first African American Editor of the Harvard Law Review” should be reminded that a lot of “firsts” have no significance beyond that simple fact of being first in unusual circumstances.
The “first” black ballplayer in Boston Red Sox history - the LAST team in MLB to integrate, ironically, was Jerry “Pumpsie” Green who played a few short and unremarkable years and was out of baseball entirely before he was 30, He can be found, though, in all of the history books because he was a “first” in what was considered a bigoted organization.
Ironically, Pumpsie had a brother, Cornell, who was a tremendous athlete, the 5 time Pro-Bowler for the Dallas Cowboys. He made five Pro Bowls at two different positions - cornerback and strong safety. Green never missed a game in 13 seasons with the Cowboys (1962-74) and played 168 games, including 145 consecutive starts for the Cowboys between 1962-1974.
Absent Obamas general collegiate records, indicating his course work, written grade scores and SATs etc., we dont know how smart this guy is ... but Im going out on a limb and saying he is more like Pumpsie Green than Cornell Green...hes just the “first” to come along...
Anybody, even someone of little talent can become famous and be a “first” or a celebrity...but the guy who shows up on game day and straps it on is the guy who will be remembered for being someone special.
Well, I’ll not be posting a photo.....
AFRAID OF LOSING VICTIM STATUS!
Shim says what?
“Being the first sucks,” she told ABC News.”
Well, true, but now she can without being labeled a queer.
I swear, The JOKER is in charge of this administration.
“But what gnaws at her, she says, is the fear of being labeled a token”
I’m pretty sure that being labeled a “token” is about as good as it gets for he/she.
Perhaps it will look back fondly on those days of being called a “token tranny”.
1. Transgender appointed for no other reason by 0bama administration.
2.Corrupt 0bama administration dies at the hands of American voters.
3.Those in transgender and other protected classes fail to be appointed or elected for generations.
0bama: Yes you can!
I would think that one would be boasting about ones qualifications instead of being hung up on ones sexual what ever it is.
Maybe then she can explain why the first thing she said after being appointed was that this was a great victory for transgenders everywhere.
I don’t have a problem with this appointment. She worked in aerospace for 30 years and is highly qualified for the technical position she’s getting.
For the record, what evidence do you have that there was any surgery?
This is a very educational blog. I now know what it means and it still doesn't interest me!
Token?
Oh come on aMANda, you were the absolute most qualified tranny that the Obama could find.
But you're smarter now. FR Rules! ;0)
Well Duh !!
In other words, what did she learn and what did she actually achieve?
She’s a former test pilot and was Deputy Director in Advanced Technology Development at Raytheon Missile Systems before her government appointment. Raytheon obviously thought she added value.
Amanda is a token, nya, nya, nya, nya, nya!
it’s ding dong shrunk on it’s own?
If she's paid her taxes, that certainly would be another appointee FIRST.
Token what????? Thing?
Besides, I thought the left was opposed to government promotion of Genetically Modified Fruit.
What a freak show. Our government is not only corrupt but becoming the Jerry Springer show.
How shameful
On the face of that, I would say that’s a good 30 years of experience.
All I know is what I learned on CSI where a Transvestite doctor did surgery in a storage unit. Several of the “girls” did not have and were opposed to having the operation.
Also, on NCIS, Dinozzo hooked up with and kissed what he later learned was a man to the general merriment of his colleagues kate and McGee
darn. Problem with me is, I don’t watch tv.
***Token Degenerate Alert***
Aunt Joe
Amanda, you are a very confused man.
Neither dresses nor scalpels can ever change that fact.
Token? Is it kidding me? There are more perverts in this administration than you can shake a stick at. Token, my eye.
If I had the nerve I could ask someone who knows.
I was in Jaycees for years and served on the Board with a fine guy. We drank beer and worked hard. He was married with two kids.
One day he announced to the world he would henceforth be a woman and feminised his name. He had to work some wonders to keep his job, but did and even ended up owning the business. She is now doing extremely well and has even set up her kids in their own businesses.
I am her customer still and when I inadvertently call her by her man name, she doesn’t flinch. Strange......very strange
“She” still has that pesky little Y chromosome, dick or no dick.
No balls for the job.
“it would be ANOTHER FIRST!”
What, appointment on merits?
She/He won’t be the first token screw-up,tax cheat, communist, convicted felon, etc, to be appointed by Obama and probably won’t be the last.
