President Obama Names Transgender Appointee to Commerce Department. President Obama recently named Amanda Simpson [Pic in URL] to be a Senior Technical Advisor to the Commerce Department.

In a statement, Simpson, a member of the National Center for Transgender Equality's board of directors, said that "as one of the first transgender presidential appointees to the federal government, I hope that I will soon be one of hundreds, and that this appointment opens future opportunities for many others."

While Simpson is clearly one of the first transgender presidential appointees, Democratic officials say they're unsure if she is the very first one.

The White House had no comment on her appointment.

So, in order to obtain a job with this administration, one must have the pre-qualification of being a sexual pervert?

What does that say about Obama?

Maybe we should ask Mr. Sinclair...

I have strong libertarian leanings but this bothers me. I can only imagine how it will strike socons. NAMBLA kid toucher and safe school czar Kevin Jennings is even worse.

Just playing devil's advocate here...

How do you equate a person who has undergone the gender change process with being a sexual pervert?

All true except that he whom is born a he remains a he.
I know it makes the whiny dems feel all good inside when they
can call a spade a diamond as if was an ace in their hole.

I would equate it with mutilation. Not much else.

Just guessing...when you remove your package, or surgically have
it shoved inside out into your abdomen, the perversion begins to show.

I don’t understand why it needs to be anyone’s business if she was a he that ‘transgendered’. Just appoint the person and leave it alone!

Someone’s sexual orientation or even their sex isn’t my business as long as they can do their job and they stay on the right side of the law. It’s like Dumb0 wants the Gay/Lesbian Alliance KNOW how wonderfully he is treating them (mostly because he’s not kept the promises he made to them to get elected).

They must be saying that for a very good reason.

Why do I get the feeling that Obama is as queer as a three dollar bill?

P.S. She(he)’s probably the first one that has openly admitted to it.

NO. Now they are just open about it. It has been going on a long, long time.
