SNIPPET: "The president has nominated Chai Feldblum, a lesbian activist, to be commissioner for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Her appointment is awaiting Senate confirmation."
SNIPPET: "Feldblum, a law professor at Georgetown University, has signed an online petition titled, "Beyond Same-Sex Marriage: A New Strategic Vision for All Our Families and Relationships.""
SNIPPET: ""Chai Feldblum is on record saying that the battle between our religious freedoms and homosexual so-called rights is a zero sum game," says Peter LaBarbera, president of Americans for Truth about Homosexuality."
SNIPPET: ""She says she can't think of a case where the religious rights -- in other words, our moral right to oppose homosexuality, our First Amendment freedom -- trump their gay rights. So, effectively, Chai Feldblum is for superior rights for homosexuals, and I think that's very dangerous for our country.""

Don’t forget the MOST important question...
Do you believe in God? If no, proceed....
Three Ring Circus
Does the man know ONE heterosexual practicing Christian? Just ONE? I know it’ll be a liberal.
In the America that you want,
it’s OK to appoint an unaccountable “czar”
with the ability to violate the right to free exercise of religion
if 5 people in robes say it is?
It’s time for a separation of evil from this country!!!
I wonder if all Zero’s supporters are aware of the loonies he is appointing to our gov?
Hows that Hope & Change working for ya,
those sit at home and Third Party voters in ‘08
who helped facilitate Obama’s victory

EEOC nominee signed radical marriage manifesto that praised polygamy

A law professor nominated by President Obama to become a commissioner for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission was a signatory to a radical 2006 manifesto which endorsed polygamous households and argued traditional marriage should not be privileged above all others.
Georgetown University Law Center professor Chai R. Feldblum, nominated as a commissioner for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), is listed as a signatory to the July 26, 2006 manifesto Beyond Same-Sex Marriage: A New Strategic Vision for All Our Families & Relationships.
The manifestos signatories said they proposed a new vision for governmental and private recognition of diverse kinds of partnerships, households and families. They said they hoped to move beyond the narrow confines of marriage politics in the U.S.
Describing various kinds of households as no less socially, economically, and spiritually worthy than other relationships, the Beyond Marriage manifesto listed committed, loving households in which there is more than one conjugal partner.
Same-sex marriage, the manifesto said, should be just one option on a menu of choices that people have about the way they construct their lives.
Marriage is not the only worthy form of family or relationship, and it should not be legally and economically privileged above all others, the manifesto continued. While we honor those for whom marriage is the most meaningful personal for some, also a deeply spiritual choice, we believe that many other kinds of kinship relationship, households, and families must also be accorded recognition.
The manifesto listed as one of its principles freedom from a narrow definition of our sexual lives and gender choices, identities, and expression.
It also charged that the political right enforces narrow, heterosexist definitions of marriage.
Other signatories of the Beyond Marriage manifesto included activists, academics, writers, artists, and clergy. The prominent names listed include Ms. Magazine founder Gloria Steinem, New York Times writer Barbara Ehrenreich, Catholic feminist theologian Mary E. Hunt, Tikkun Magazine editor Rabbi Michael Lerner, philosopher Judith Butler and Princeton University professor Cornel West.
President Barack Obama announced Feldblums nomination in a Sept. 14 statement, saying she and nominees to other agencies bring a dedication and expertise in their fields that will serve this administration and the American people well.
As we work to advance equal rights, keep our nation safe and put our country back on a path to prosperity, I look forward to working with these fine individuals in the months and years ahead,” the president said.
The White Houses statement noted that Feldblum has taught at the Georgetown University Law Center since 1991 and founded a program there to train students to become legislative lawyers. She also clerked for Supreme Court Justice Harry A. Blackmun and helped draft the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.
She has also worked on advancing lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights and has been a leading expert on the Employment Nondiscrimination Act, the White Houses Sept. 14 statement said.
The Employment Nondiscrimination Act (ENDA) would create a federal ban on workplace discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation.
The EEOC is tasked with the enforcement of federal anti-discrimination law in the workplace. If confirmed, Feldblum would become one of five EEOC commissioners, who each serve a term of five years.
Feldblums nomination was sent to the U.S. Senate on Sept. 15.
Another monkey joins the circus......
Besides the fact that pointing fingers does absolutely no good,
and we’d only be moderately better off with Juan McCain as president,
would the 3rd party voters have put the ‘stain in office?

Always interested in being in the middle of the action, Chai Feldblum was born and raised in New York City and then moved to the Washington area after receiving her bachelor’s degree in ancient studies from Barnard College in New York.
Eager to dive right into the political scene, Feldblum began working here as a lobbyist for the Population Resource Center, and then as a staff member for current Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.), who was then a member of Congress.
That tiny taste of political and legislative life nurtured a deeper hunger in Feldblum for meaningful experiences and achievements this area - her impetus to enroll in Harvard Law School, where she obtained her law degree ...

“In the America that you want,

The Constitution means what the judges of the Court say it means. They are always right because they are final, not final because they are always right. In your example, Obama, or any other president, can appoint whomsoever he pleases to the EEOC. The Senate can confirm or not. Whether or not that person can get away with vilation of the free exercise clause is another matter entirely. I am curious though; who is the unaccountable czar with the ability to violate the free exercise clause? Obama’s lesbian? Have the powers of the EEOC or its commissioners been secretly expanded?
But back to my question, in the America you want to create, will the Founders be excoriated because of the Constitutional system they set up, one that contains Art. III, sec. 2?
“President taps lesbian activist”
he swings 3 ways?
They do so wish to erase Cassie Bernall from our memories!
