Rep. Speier Reads Children’s Book about Transgender Youth on House Floor
cns news ^ | 5/3/16

Posted on 05/03/2016 11:30:26 AM PDT by StCloudMoose

ep. Jackie Speier (D-Calif.) joined a nationwide day of readings of “I Am Jazz” Thursday by reading the controversial children’s book that chronicles the life of a biological boy, Jazz Jennings, who identifies as a girl.

“All across the country today teachers, librarians, and parents will be reading the book ‘I Am Jazz,’ a children’s book about transgender youth, co-written by Jazz Jennings, pictured here, and Jessica Herthel,” Speier said, explaining that “last year legal threats from the anti-LGBTQ hate group forced the school in Wisconsin to cancel plans to read this book to support a transgender student.”

“I am Jazz”, “I was Jiz”—what will historians think reading the Congressional Record? That the US Congress was the greatest deliberative body on Earth? Unlikely.

Are you sure it’s not a book about child abuse?

The Government and leftist propaganda (now the one and the same) is so thick, you need wings to stay above it.

What’s next to be read aloud in our nation’s capitol?

Penthouse Forum?

Free country and the constitution protects her right to say what she wants on the House floor. Too bad some people don’t think that bakers, florist and photographers don’t have a right to serve who they want.

I give them credit. The left NEVER stops.

Its all about the indoctrination and control of the language.

There is something weird about a woman who shows her bottom teeth when they smile.

Thankfully, our kids are out of school but I seriously doubt that trash is being read here. Back when obama wanted everyone to read about him - we refused. I didn’t read it in my classroom and it wasn’t read in any other in our district. Thank you, Texas.

Can you imagine this being read in someplace like the Roman Senate or even the British House of Lords? What have we become under the Marxist democrats?

And remember how supposedly insulting it was to the dignity of the Senate, when Sen. Cruz, took time during a filibuster to try to have the Senate rethink its destruction of our Treasury, to read “Green Eggs and Ham” to his daughters before they retired for the evening.

And yet there are scores of those here who spend more time insulting Cruz, than they do those who ghettopaint the walls of the Congress with such filth. Our enemies, those we need to politically crush and destroy, are not here. It is time to attack them, not each other.

I remember a debate between a conservative and a liberal on some show, and the conservative hated it for making you think that you could change genders by adopting the opposite gender roles. And the liberal feminist hated it for another reason - for pushing gender roles, because it presupposed liking sports was for boys and cooking was for girls, while many female athletes and Gordon Ramsay would disagree.

So everyone but the LBGT?()@#(! can agree the book is bad - and inappropriate for children.

Every democrat voting group is in a state of agitation to keep them amped for Election Day.
