Well, we’re all very thankful since you’re the only one who counts. (sic)

Don’t worry so much. I predict the out come of the mid terms to be 289 democratic house members and 63 Senate Dems plus Bernie Sanders (Lieberman doesn’t count)

I agree, drop the T. Sorry but it’s not their time yet, why should we LGB suffer workplace discrimination any longer than needed? Drop the T, pass ENDA and let’s work for the T later. It happened here in NY, when they dropped the T, employment protections easily passed. Now they are fighting for get T but it keeps failing. Let us get ENDA passed now!

I agree that it is shameful that Dems that have congress and the presidency and can’t fullfill basic non-discrimination promises. It ain’t gonna get better after November. It’s time Pelosi called a roll call vote in the House so that can see which Dems sell us out and so that we know who to no longer give money to support. If they don’t call the vote it’s time to stop giving any Dems money! I live in SF and Pelosi is our rep. More LGBT people vote for her than anyone else anywhere else in the country and she can’t give us the dignity of calling for a vote and holding the party accountable! I am kicking myself for not running against her this year. The Prop8 anger and now this is palpable in SF and this year would have been the year to take on the establishment. This proves that blindly voting DEM is not the correct strategy.

I agree… You see not all of us need this protection.

I go to work to work, am well respected, valued, and highly paid. Most know I am gay but I don’t need protection, I do my job.

Hey keep it in there… maybe next time right…

Sorry, Wendy, but the sad fact is, the political climate for transgenders is still frozen in the 1970s — and will likely remain frozen in the ’70s until more transgenders come out of the closet — including HETEROSEXUAL transgenders.

I repeat . . . THE SENATE DEMS SIMPLY DON’T HAVE THE 60 VOTES REQUIRED TO BREAK THE GOP FILIBUSTER AND PASS ENDA — PERIOD!

Stop blaming the Democrats for lacking a filibuster-proof majority!

Rubbish! The fact of the matter is, the Democrats don’t have the 60 votes required to break a Republican filibuster against ENDA — Log Cabin Republicans’ R. Clarke Cooper’s denials notwithstanding.

Let’s not kid ourselves: As long as Senate Republicans have the 41 votes to block legislation with filibusters, ENDA’s going nowhere. Do the math. The Senate Dems don’t have the votes to pass it — period.
