After embracing the notion that gender is as much mental as it is physical, the Obama White House on Tuesday rejected the suggestion that it has been particularly aggressive on transgender issues.
This is a confrontation that Republicans have sought out rather cynically, because they are seeking a political advantage, White House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters at Tuesday's briefing.
Earnest said Republicans in North Carolina started the controversy by passing legislation (HB2), which negated a Charlotte city ordinance allowing transgender people to use the bathroom of their choice.

Don’t get angry at North Carolina. Get angry at Mayor Jennifer Roberts and her buddy, the convicted sex offender Chad Severance-Turner. They were behind the plot to get the ordinance passed.
This crap no longer bothers me.
If the republicans won’t stick up for us nor themselves, I’m certainly not gonna be offended by this.
Earnest makes “Baghdad Bob” look like the voice of total truth.
In other words polling indicates that this is not going over well with America, and this may very well end up being part of Obama’s abysmal legacy.
so.. blame the Republicans
The NYC media have already implied the GOP will lose the senate.
Yesterday the senate SURRENDERED AGAIN and approved the Obama AF leader who was Obama’s PC alternative deathstyle pick.
Crooked Hellary with a left wing senate without GOP pretent fighting....
No, it started because confused and perverted people, and their idiot supporters, wanted to impose themselves somewhere.
Charlotte City Council consists of 5 Democrats and 2 Republicans. So it appears that the original shot fired in the Potty Wars was by the Democrats.
That’s really BS- In Houston it started when the Major pushed an open bathroom law through. No one saw a need for it. That was over a year ago.
I believe this is a totally fabricated wedge issue.
Current crop of ..rats can’t run on the record of the last 8 years so they have to invent something.
Another act of Kabuki theater.
Joan Rivers said that Mooch was a TRANNY, so maybe she wants to use the men’s room.
eye-roll
Exactly
And no one mentions what would have been the easy resolution to all this.
Charlotte rescind its ordinance. Simple
The trannys were using the bathroom of their choice with no repercussions.
I have never heard of any problems with bathroom usage as it was. Female tranny goes into a stall and does his/her business. No one knows. Same with male trannys.
This was a solution looking for a problem.
No, that wasn't/isn't good enough. They want to flaunt their lifestyle and dare us to do anything about it. They want us to not only tolerate it, they want it accepted and mainstreamed.
And bathrooms is only the least offensive of it. The locker and showers is an entirely different and far offensive .
Sorry Charlie.
Liar in Chief strikes again.
Passed by the same conservative Republicans who run San Francisco and New York, I'm sure?
FUObama...it started with your pervert push.
All of it, and every move he makes till he’s done will be to shred the fabric of American society and culture. “The issue is never the issue”. The issue is the downfall of the USA to make it a level playing field for the Globalists. The Globalists are at odds with American values, mores, ideas, way of life.
Sadly they don't matter much to anyone anymore.
