Utah lawmaker’s home vandalized after he introduced bill to ban transgender surgeries: ‘Trannies bash back’

By Chris Pandolfo

A Utah state lawmaker’s home was vandalized this week with messages that indicate he was targeted because of his opposition to transgender medical treatments for minors.

Messages in red spray-painted on Republican state Sen. Mike Kennedy’s door read “fash” — short for fascist — and “These trannies bash back,” a phrase that uses a slur for transgender people. Kennedy shared a photograph of the vandalism in a post on Facebook.

Earlier this year, Kennedy sponsored SB16, legislation that bans transgender surgeries and puberty blockers for minors. The bill was signed into law by Gov. Spencer Cox in January. (Continue reading)

Let Me Say This Very Slowly: Rude is Rude “Period”

Rude Free Zone 5I get so tired of people being rude and when called on it, start trying to point figures at the opposition.  So what if the other side has rude people — that changes nothing.  That doesn’t make the person less rude.  That doesn’t suddenly make a rude statement un-rude or ok-rude.   Instead, it sounds like a bunch of little kids caught doing something they shouldn’t be doing and trying to throw blame and attention elsewhere.  “Johnny did it first.”  “April did it more.”

Let me say this very slowly…

I don’t judge rude by who is doing the rude.  Rude is rude no matter who says or does it.

I don’t give free passes to one set of people, while holding another set accountable for the same thing.

So, don’t whine to me about what Bush or his administration or any Republican might have said or done two terms ago.  Changes nothing.  Gives no free pass to this administration or any radical liberal running around insulting anyone and everyone, who doesn’t happen to agree straight down the line with his/her/their beliefs or demands.  Rude is rude no matter who is doing the rude.

And just in case my message was missed…

Let me say this very slowly — rude is rude “period.”  Count on it.  You see, I don’t say things I don’t mean.  And I don’t do “rude” thinking it is going to win a debate for me.  I use facts, logic and common sense.  Rude Radicals & their Zombie Followers ought to try it some time.  It might give “surprising” and “refreshing” new meanings.

Oh, how deliciously ironic…

negotiate4Obama tells congressional leaders he won’t negotiate on shutdown, debt“???… oh, how deliciously ironic.  If Obama won’t negotiate on any of those things — or anything — what is he willing to negotiate on?

Things have gotten out of hand.  (Actually, they got out of hand long ago.)  There was no reason that the Democrats and the President of the United States of America could then (or now) truthfully feel their plan for health care reform was so perfect — so very perfect — so very, very perfect — because they are “all-knowing” — that a little devil’s-advocacy and balance wasn’t in order, rather than a defiant blow-off of everything and anything not-their-way.

No reason, but it happened.

Now we have tons of people losing their jobs, or at least their full-time hours, and definitely their certainty of what tomorrow brings.  No longer does the need of the worker matter — the only things that matter are the whims of Obamacare and the dear Democrats & Pals that claim to so care for the people’s well-being.

And, rather than try to explain what they were thinking and why they thought (and continue to think) they were right and meant/mean well — they start in with the name-calling (calm rhetoric) and low blows towards any who do not agree with them, not to mention those special terms …

 In recent weeks, however, Obama and his aides and Democratic allies have accused the Republican legislators of being anarchists, suicide-bombers, hostage-takers, arsonists, political terrorists, fanatics, blackmailers, and ideological crusaders.

 “What we’re not for is negotiating with people with a bomb strapped to their chest,” Dan Pfeiffer, Obama’s top media adviser, said in a CNN interview this week.  ~Obama: I use ‘calm’ rhetoric, unlike ‘hostage takers’  (The Daily Caller — 7:16 PM 10/02/2013)

The irony of the Obama Administration — their willingness to call names (calm rhetoric), refuse to budge and then dare to project their words and behavior on others.  So, are we to be impressed and feel more secure in Obamacare and this administration now that we know they are pretty darn good at retaliating, hitting below the belt and name-calling (calm rhetoric)?  Sure makes me want to rush out and buy me an Obamacare plan — how about you?
