If someone told me this kind of bill would be proposed in Congress 20 years ago, I would have laughed until my stomach hurt. Now, I just shake my head and wonder how we got here from there.

NO ONE is born a “cross-dresser”. We are born naked.

The nature of clothing is determined by social custom and fashion.

If an employer can’t keep a man from wearing a dress, then the employer is likewise unable to prevent arbitrary selection of things like a dog or chicken costume or heavy metal attire. It becomes “arbitrary”.

The lavender mafia and libertarians assured us that the Lawrence v. Texas was NOT a tumble down a slippery slope.

“There IS NO homosexual agenda.”

So goes the culture right into the sewer.

The Employment Non-Discrimination Act, which will come up for a cloture vote in the Senate today ...

The Senate? The United States Senate?! With all of the problems facing this nation, Dingy Harry Reid is singularly focused on this piece of ... legislation?!!! The bill ....

... mandates that employers in the United States permit men to dress as women at work and women to dress as men as long as they otherwise adhere to “reasonable dress or grooming standards.”

Of course, he would pick Waxman to help him model "reasonable dress" ...

They haven’t passed a budget in how long? And this is what they’re spending their time on? Nice to know they’ve got priorities...
