i am never surprised when politicians are selfish. it is nothing new. they all do it. sure, these are the rules we have. and they take advantage. greed is an excellent motivator and has been for a looooooooong time.

Uniparty? On the one hand i agree, the political class is largely in it for themselves and they always make sure to benefit from their position. On the other hand...~75% support is hard to deny. Or should the USA be ruled by 25%?

Standing buffalo is best buffalo

yes, it was that way for both Trans day and Easter. the real reason is respect the cynical reason is politik so probably somewhere in the middle.

i hope you are right. im Canadian and i think we are in the same boat...mostly regular people of all kinds (including christians and transgender people) that are fine and then extreme loud ends of the spectrum that take up too much air time.

day of Trans remembrance started 1999. Day of Visibility 2009. both well before the saturation we have now. do we cancel the day because of this? id say easter saturates even more...do we cancel it? i dont think so. yeah there are many groups worthy and we do have days (or months) for them. and if there are some that wish more attention that don't have it then go ahead i cant see why not.

we all should love each other. sometimes we dont agree but we find ways and compromise.

how about just loving each other regardless? you really think most trans people want to push an agenda beyond the same one you espouse "just be who you are" (ie not "be who i want you to be") there are some lefties who hate Rs and Christians and those who support trump for exiating and that is wrong for sure. and i dont think there are many trans people doling out punishments.

lol ok that was pretty funny. yikes!

wow, the hatred runs deep...especially for a set of people most know nothing about or have personal experience with. yes, there are bad people in the world, some of whom are trans. what a revelation. i thought jesus loved everyone and that Christians strive to act like Jesus. he seems like a great person...what is with all of the hatred? why is it so insulting to celebrate anything or anyone other than Easter on Easter? do you really think jesus would meet this with hatred, or with love? i think he would be ashamed of what has been perpetrated in his name. edit: Christianity has such promise in concept but in practice...not so much. to quote irv, "what a mess".

If only McDermott interviewed better, we would win all the superbowls.

Seems a little extreme, but assuming you are correct you should not look to Rs or Ds for the answer. They are both playing you.

i like his knack for making big plays. that's hard to teach. if he could just be halfway decent the rest of the time he'd be pretty good, that can be taught.

meh, english has a habit of dropping hyphens over time. why not be ahead of the curve?

who can be so overtly covert? sometimes even covertly overt? f-ing a man!
