There were two things sadly missing in last evening's debate.
Audience participation and POTUS.
And the talking heads at MSNBC had to lick their liberal wounds as their dog in the fight acted like a Chihuahua with its tail tucked between its legs going up against a Great Dane.
And don't ya know some in the LGBT kingdom (particularly on FB) were complaining about no discussion of all things LGBT, although Obama did mention DADT once that I caught.
Um ... I guess they (the complainers) didn't pay attention to the format and topics which were to be discussed.
Sorry fellow Pinkies, the world and the US doesn't revolve around us in spite of what the Elites tell you.
So it is I'm sure they passed around a bottle or two at MSNBC when the debate was over and the after sparring talking head session came to a close.
As my Dad told me about when he was stationed in England while in the Air Force and when finding out the 70 odd acres of the Evans Homestead was being sold, he went to a pub and got politely pissed (drunk as we say on this side of the pond).
Another voice of reason has spoken out over the opposition of MA taxpayers footing the bill for a sex change op for wife murderer Robert Kosilek.
Congressman Barney Frank in an interview with MetroWeekly said the following about Kosilek's wish to convert from he to she, "I think it should be clear she has a right to present herself as a woman, and that should be honored by the prison system," Frank said, but he added that asking taxpayers to foot the bill for her surgery was a mistake. "There are other medical procedures that are denied to convicted murderers," Frank said.
This will no doubt raise the ire and ruffle the bloomers of some members of the T who look beyond the reason why Kosilek is in prison and the crime he committed and charge those (including this writer) who oppose, not the surgery itself but the idea that taxpayers should pay for it, with being transphobic.
They only see Kosilek as one of their adopted "own" and keep harping on the theme of "cruel and unusual punishment".
I wonder if they would also be speaking out in favor of Kosilek if he were a murdering pedophile which in and of itself would speak volumes as to where their priorities are when it comes to "equality for all things T". Of course how would they be able to say no as that would make them hypocrites of their "righteous cause".
While it's a happy day for Thomas Roberts and his longtime companion Patrick Abner as they wed today, not so the news for out and proud Country-Western singer KD Lang as word has come that her and longtime companion Jamie Price's domestic partnership has come to a final close after they separated back in 2011.
The two met back in 2003 several years after Lang officially came out back in 1992 in an article in TheAdvocate .
In an interview with a Canadian LGBT news website Lang said,"Coming out as a lesbian was important," she said. "When you’re holding in things or not being honest, all these things affect your voice. My voice is definitely designated to who I am as a person.
If nothing else these two events show that LGBTs are just like everyone else, happiness, trials, tribulations and sometimes separation. And again the collective we ask those opposed to same-sex marriage and LGBTs in general, how does what we do affect you ?
So here we are, and we've been to this rodeo before, this time with some "expert" by the name of Dr. Qazi Rahman as interviewed for the website GayStarNews by writer Gareth Johnson in which the good doc says straight women are potentially bi and bisexual men, well you know as you bi-guys have been told by the figgits all these years we hardly if ever are the real deal.
In doing a study which involves proclaimed bi-guys viewing porn they hardly if ever get it up watching gal-on-gal action but the peter rises to new heights when watching guy-on-guy.
He also is of the opinion that straight women in his study are ready to go into orbit watching de guys, de gals and de gal with guy ergo they really aren't straight at all but bi or at least capable of being so.
Lesbians have no fear they only orbitized when watching the ladies have at it.
Of us bi-guys he says, "However the prevailing scientific view is that bisexuality in males doesn’t physiologically exist."
As far as de gay goes dey are .. but wait he also has some wisdom about the T and don't get your knickers knotted up at me, he's the one who makes the following statements.
"It’s very rare for someone to identify as trans. And the smaller the population available to study then the harder it is to identify the specific biological signals that have a material influence on the development of someone’s sexuality," says Rahman. "Even though we don’t know a lot about the biology of trans people, we know enough to be confident that it’s not caused by social factors, that there is a biological explanation." "There are a couple of brain studies that suggest that trans people have differences in those parts of the brain that direct an individual’s sense of gender identity - tiny neural clusters or triggers that are somehow aligned to the female gender." "One slightly random fact is that we know that trans people are more likely to be left-handed."
Now I'm never going to look at a south-paw baseball pitcher the same way again.
Look fellow bi-guys, screw 'em, they're jealous we can get it on with any body.
