That’s my opinion on where the good doctor is headed. In a recent post at Bilerico.com she said:
“The incredibly unflappable Signorile asked about the failure of Congress to move on ENDA and DADT, and the President’s failure to lead. Frank’s angry response was that the LGBT community has failed to lobby Congress. He characterized our [...]
Coming up on the two year anniversary of the Human Right Campaign’s (HRC) support of Barney Frank dropping gender identity from the 2007 Employment Non-discrimination Act (ENDA), the irony of HRC’s current position on DOMA couldn’t be scripted any thicker. HRC defended their defection with Frank in 2007 this way:
“Our community can work with the [...]
Am I the only one who is a bit puzzled/miffed/baffled by Barney Frank’s insinuation in this exchange:
There is another difference from 2007. Frank now has a policy adviser who is a female-to-male transsexual. Diego Sanchez is the first transgender person hired for a senior congressional staff position on Capitol Hill.

There’s a recurrent story that is going through the gossip circles during the Christmas season in trannyland. It goes like this:

Good ole’ St. Frank and the HRC’s equality elves will surprise everyone and come on board by supporting a fully inclusive Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) and opposing any version that doesn’t include everyone.
There’s only one problem with that dream/fantasy/rumor… it ain’t true!
