Rep. Barney Frank on ENDA Rule

[orlandoko]

If I was caught with underage boys in my basement I would hate discrimination too.

the government cannot heal discrimination, only time can. the government only holds a gun to the heads of the people to force false tolerance.

Barney is nothing but a cancerous tumor on society. To hear him speak of ethics is like Teddy K. talking about ethics. Barney is as much to blame as anyone you who do not believe this do some home work.

But seriously... Fire Barney Frank,Chuck Schumer,etc. How can we have confidence in a bail-out when the ones who say they are trying to fix the problem actually caused the problem.

what a toolbag

Maybe Janet Reno and Hillary Clinton can finally come out now and safely admit they're really a men. Thanks Barney.

Sadly, we live in a nation that thinks perversion is "normal". It is not normal, natural, or moral. It won't be long before pedophilia becomes acceptable as well. Mr. Frank is lying through his teethe when he says this is not a movement towards gay marriage. It most certainly is.

[Balancement]

Barney Frank is one of this nation's wisest and greatest legislators. Perhaps, even, the ONLY fully decent Congressperson American has. "Bravo!" to Barney Frank. May your tribe increase.

This is why I vote Democratic. Republicans really need to improve on civil rights issues.

[dudeman5790]

of who? do you think that employers should be held to a gay and transgender quota as well as race, gender and age? what about the normal guys? no matter how qualified they are being fucked by affirmative action and this is only an expansion therein. everyone is so busy trying to appease the minorities of the populace (not to say that's entirely bad), that they ignore the majority as well as the greatest minority of all, the individual.

[kenner116]

It's not about affirmative action or quotas at all. It's about not being fired for being gay or transgendered. The same would apply to someone being fired for being a straight white male. And treating people equally and with respect is not "appeasing", it's just being civil.

[dudeman5790]

on the surface you're right, but I can almost guarantee that every gay man not hired or transgender person not hired or laid off will easily be able to fall into the arms of this legislation even if it was not the true cause. if this is not a direct quota system will quickly become one. the government has too often gotten involved in questioning the motives of people, which can rarely be proved and is a process which is entirely too ambiguous.

@kenner116 How is it a civil right to have drag queens teach school children?
