Pledging to Fight Injustices, Hillary Clinton Focuses on Transgender Rights in Speech
The New York Times ^ | October 3, 2015 | Amy Chozick

In a forceful speech to an influential gay rights group, Hillary Rodham Clinton on Saturday reaffirmed her support for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans just hours before Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., contemplating his own presidential run, was to address the organization.

“I see the injustices and dangers that you and your family still face,” Mrs. Clinton told the gathering of members of the Human Rights Campaign. “I am running for president to end them once and for all.”

Mrs. Clinton emphasized transgender rights, including urging the military to reverse its policy and allow transgender Americans to serve in the armed forces. Having the world’s strongest military, she said, “doesn’t just mean having the best-trained forces or the biggest arsenal.”(continued)

If this weren't so sad it'd be hilarious.

The injustice is that the elites have worked to normalize the “transgender” horror. Their destruction of our culture is an injustice.

So she is preaching to a mere 1 and one half percent of the population, a militantly homosexual and intolerant part of our society. This will put her over the top? She’s a fool, but everyone knows that.

She's going for the 1% who was going to vote for her anyway.

I think she's speaking to people who believed that this movie was a documentary.

This smacks of a Planned Parenthood type of kick back scheme, you know how the Democrats give tax money to Planned Parenthood for “women’s health” and then Planned Parenthood gives some of it back to the campaign coffers of the Democrat party after it has been laundered. There are only about 2% gays so it probably isn’t about votes so much as money coming from all of the laundered money kick back schemes that gives tax money to “human rights” gay organizations, it appears that they are legion—gay men’s this, lesbian that, gay health initiatives, outreach to gay students etc. etc. Add to that all the rich gay donations and the Hollywood money.

She is speaking to a friendly crowd and this will not be seen by very many people and will be covered up by the msm but it will be interesting to see how she deals with this issue when she is speaking to large crowds. My bet is that she won’t mention it, she will go back to the mom and apple pie speeches when she is speaking to ordinary voters. I would love to see her make a nauseatingly pandering pro-gay speech before a large crowd at the Iowa state fair. LOL

The Democrats have been playing this two faced game for a long time, quietly appealing to all their radical chic freaks while putting on a normal face to the rest of their voters. If there had been some real Republican opposition this would have been exposed many years ago.

The liberal coalition of victim groups is coming apart. It could never hold when so many conflicting ‘needs’ were competing.

The pandering this election will be epic.

This should ingratiate her with the 99.9999999 percent of the population who aren’t confused about their gender.

“..some real Republican opposition.....” .

or an honest media.

What we are seeing is the end game of a society when one side has no opposition. They come to believe they can say and do anything without any consequences.

Well, there will be consequences because the world they are creating will not work and eventually there will be a backlash.

The other night I watched the Kardashians for the first time in a hotel room. (my mind was fried out that night ok?) eheheheh... BUT what I’m saying is you could see in their faces how screwed up they feel about Brucie’s lil transgender show.
It strikes them deeper in their souls than they let on about. Mess with God’s design and reap the ill fruits.

This was their daddy and now look at him. It is devastating to them. Jenner is a vile narcissist. I believe that he did not make any real effort to find the sources of his problems and get some deep therapy. He just wanted to become a shemale sexpot.

So if I read her correctly, she’s saying that the US military needs drag queens to be effective?

What the heck for? Are they supposed to go slap somebody?

Meanwhile, 94,000,000 U.S. citizens are absent the labor force with a participation rate worse than all the years since 1977 when Carter was President. The Mid-East is in flames as Obama abandons the control levers to Putin, and the European continent is about to sink into the ocean under the massive weight of Muslim invaders their fool governments have welcomed in with open arms.

So, yes, Hillary I can why “transgender rights” is at the top of your policy list.
