Governor names first openly gay, Asian American to state’s high court

I am so tired of that term.
Why don’t they just come out and say Forced Redistribution of Wealth.
Because that doesn't quite capture the flavor of group vengeance.

If those people can be given a job because of Gay, they can be fired for Gay.

I guess you’re right.

Presentation is everything when you’re talking about convincing the uneducated, low information voter to swing his vote you’re way.

No, no, no.

They are given jobs because they are homosexual. BUT, the job is also secure, no matter how poorly they execute it. You can’t fire a homosexual or you’ll have a lawsuit on your hands for firing them because of their “sexual orientation”....another made-up phrase.

Enough of this fascination with “identity” politics, where people are cast in an officially certified victim group, or are classified as the White Oppressors.

Since we’re into achieving firsts...

How about appointing the first open polygamist or paedophile to something?

There’ve been previous openly gay, Asian Americans. Sulu, for instance. (Poorly written headline alert.)

Wow! Triple diversity points for this one.

Female? Check.
Lesbian? Check.
Asian? Check.

Definitely qualified for the Supreme Court.

You are right, of course. Keep on counting until you get the results you want seems to be the new “progressive” way of running free elections.

Indeed, it is very sad. But how fortunate my family feels to live across a mountain range from most of this depravity, in a flyover-type place where families and God are still paramount at time of this writing. Actual two-parent homes in many cases, signups for VBS already, baseball and softball games, Washington apples. My family headed to a college fastpitch tournament later today.

I like the picture you paint. There are a lot of places (still) where humans are human and life is good.
