With a few strokes of a keyboard, President Obama is seeking to change the daily experience of thousands upon thousands of schoolchildren by ordering all U.S. schools to allow transgender students access to the restroom of their choice.
He sent a letter stating his progressive decree to the nation’s schools Friday morning — threatening schools not just with legislation but with a loss of funding if they fail to comply.
The New York Times had an early copy of the letter, from which it excerpted the following, which essentially bans the one-stall bathroom option: “A school may not require transgender students to use facilities inconsistent with their gender identity or to use individual-user facilities when other students are not required to do so.”
“It does not have the force of law,” The Times reports of the letter, “but it contains an implicit threat: Schools that do not abide by the Obama administration’s interpretation of the law could face lawsuits or a loss of federal aid.”
The letter is addressed to all schools that receive federal funding, including 16,500 school districts and 7,000 colleges, universities, and trade schools. It also applies to charter schools, for-profit schools, libraries, and museums that receive federal aid, USA Today reports.
One Boston, Massachusetts, father told LifeZette that he was “stunned,” and said, “I need to call my kids’ school and get the facts, but we will not be quiet in the face of this. My first reaction is to say that Obama was scared by the pushback that Americans gave Target when they essentially did the same thing to their customers. He knows that the way to subvert the will of the people is to use the power of his office. ...

0bola; The Pasha of Perversity..
The President of the United States is the chief executive of the Executive Branch of government, and the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces. That is it.
He is the head of only one branch of our government, he gets away with this stuff when the other two steps aside and does nothing.
Now that we know the Republican party is nothing more than the beard for the Democrats we can understand just how so much cultural change has been allowed with the flick of a pen or a phone call by this President.
We need someone like Trump but we also need a new party, one that is not full of RINOs
Obama and the Democrats are LAW-LESS because Republican “leaders” and Americans are BALL-LESS!
I wish these articles would stop calling this “bullying”, it’s not, it is TYRANNY, plain and simple.
GOVERNMENT TYRANNY.
Just because this perverted, lawless excuse for a president fantasizes about getting lost in the girls locker room does not visit those morals on the rest of us.
He’s pushing...pushing to cause an uprising to justify a “national emergency”, requiring martial law to quell. The, martial law will morph into a coup, and we’ll have bathroom Barry as our “leader”...for every.
Given the Trump storm that is brewing, it’s his only chance to keep the democrats in power.
“The Obama Presidency” should henceforth be referred to only as the “Obama Monarchy”.
Already focus grouped with my liberal friends. I thought they’d wear it proudly, but it really cuts them, no defense offered. It seems the liberal Eden has always rejected authoritarianism. Just sayin’.
Apparently, most people are just fine with what Obama is doing, while he ignores our increasing problems.
This is Obama’s Waterloo? I hope so because it’s going to fail miserably and a lot of people are finally going to see how much of a gullible naive fool they’ve been except the transgenders, of course. And we know how Waterloo ended. Hanging wouldn’t be enough for this fool.
One thing Obama has done is refined the definition of nagger and revived it. The word is not used in reference to good people but to a$$hat$ like the mulatto Marxist in the WH who continually makes our lives a living hell and steals from us every time we buy gas, pay income taxes or pay any of his new regulatory fees...
Ironically apropos that Obama is being associated with “Potty Politics” as he nears the end of his crappy presidency - hope it becomes his legacy....
Obama legacy of toileting.
My grand daughters’ school system sent a letter home to the parents. They said they are concerned for the health and safety of all its students and not just one small segment.
Their plan is to do nothing, say nothing, (remain silent) possibly in hopes that a new President will change this dictatorial rule in a few months.
To me it is the only plan right now. Let the education department ferret out all 17,000 potential respondents.
"Thousands upon thousands???!!" . . .how about MILLIONS UPON MILLIONS of children who will be PERMANENTLY psychologically, morally and spiritually abused as a result of this imposed tyranny by Obama.
Good for them...
Here is a disturbing compilation of recent incidents of sexual assaults and peeping Toms in ladies’ rooms.
The pro-trannie PC/MSM is blocking these stories and pretending they don’t happen, but they do. Here are the first few on the very long list.

3. Olympia, WA. - Unidentified male. Sexual Assault Victims Speak Out Against Washington’s Transgender Bathroom Policies.

YMCA Communications Director resigns, 300 families cancel membership due to YMCA policy allowing men into women’s restrooms. Prior to the statewide YMCA policy, the YMCA in Pierce County began allowing “transgender” members to use the locker room of their choosing. When the policy was formally written, the communications director (a sexual assault victim) told her superiors that she could not support this decision. YMCA asked her to resign, and promised 10 weeks’ severance if she kept quiet. After 300 households canceled their memberships over the new policy, in September 2015, YMCA scaled it back to try to appease the members that were leaving. By December 2015, however YMCA had reinstated the policy of allowing men in women’s lockers (and vice versa), stating that it was simply following state law.

I like, “Pasha of Perversity,” but I think “Bathroom Barry” is more likely to stick, if you pardon the expression.
How about Loo-bama?
When the chips are down, the feeble will always sink to their true level and reveal themselves for what they are.
POOP will be his legacy. And even that will not endure for very long.
