Discussion: WATCH: CNN Host, Texas Lt. Gov. Spar Over Accommodations For Trans Kids

This guy looks like a demented Jeb Bush. Or should I say a more demented Jeb Bush?

Any comment from the Log Cabin Republicans? “Let’s bring about change from within” - not really working like you hoped it would, maybe.

These people just don’t seem to be able to feel good about themselves if there isn’t someone they’re allowed to treat like shit by law and social custom. I’m pretty sure that’s what it means when they decry “PC” culture.

Just ain’t nobody left they’re allowed to bully, humiliate and degrade without consequences no more. Is that any kind of country for a man to live in, I ask you?

A scapegoat’s as good as a solution to a Republican.

TX Fickle Cons refusing $$$billions in fed funds…I’ll believe THAT when it happens. I think this would be a good time for the feds to go ahead and take bids for states that would like the have military bases and other government sponsored entities now existing in Texas… since Texas is planning on seceding. Paraphrasing President Obama-------Please secede, Texas.

He really does.

Transgender children have already been using those bathrooms in school and everywhere else. I just don’t get it other than what you said about their need to treat anyone they see as different than them like shit.

Is is not the kind of country I want to live in so I applaud Obama for trying to bring change and appeal to appeal to people’s kinder side. and common sense

The Texas Lt. Gov. and his ilk approach everything from the point of view of judgment, self-righteousness and ignorance rather that from mercy, empathy or even trying to understand.

As you all know, in NYC there is that real time “National Debt Clock” that shows our debt in…umm…real time. :smile: I would love it if someone created something similar to calculate all the tax payer money Republicans have spent on frivolous law suits against the Obama Administration, Hillary Clinton/Benghazi/email servers, and votes on the repeal of the ACA. That would be illuminating. Something needs to be done to contextualize all this bullshit these “Fiscal Conservatives” are doing.

edit: If only there was some mechanism, in this country, that could expose this sort of thing…I dunno…something like “actual journalism”…or something? Haha! actual journalism…I say silly thing sometimes.

He’s angry because some trans girl used to beat him up when he was in school.

Ummm, no. All the White House did was issue guidelines in response to requests for guidance. There are no strings attached, and there is no requirement to follow them, and no enforcement mechanism. Guidance. Look it up dude.

Or he was “tricked” by one. Pretends he “didn’t know!”. and now feels tremendous self-loathing because he enjoyed it. :smile:

Poor Dan Patrick. He not only wasn’t a very good sportscaster, he wasn’t even the best sportscaster named Dan Patrick.

Yup. He had nothing…NOTHING…to reply to her question with. So, he pivoted like the weakling he is. As I’ve said-cowards, the whole lot of 'em

Go ahead and start yet another culture war that you have already lost, ratwing. Please do - make your losses utter and then go die, choke on your spite and your useless hatred.

For all love, it’s children that are being discussed. Children.

What happened to these people to make them so very hateful?
