Mayor Pete Buttigieg celebrated Veterans Day on Monday, promising to change the motto of the Veterans Affairs to make it more gender inclusive.

The motto for Veterans Affairs is featured on a plaque on the federal building in Washington, DC, featuring a quote from President Abraham Lincoln’s second inaugural address in 1865: “To care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow, and his orphan.”

I guess that means he might appoint his Husband or Wife (Depending on who the sender or receiver is)to head the VA. That way he will have both based covered. Oh, excuse me, I forgot the Transgenders. Give me a break!

‘Leave No Man Behind’ was obviously meant to be interpreted as, ‘Leave No Man’s Behind Alone!’

I guess none of us Vets got the memo, Pete!

What a Putz. That seems to be my Word of the Day: Putz!

I can’t help it if they’re everywhere these days! ;)

Pete declares he wants more genders present when veterans are having affairs? Can he think of nothing else?

To the nooral boundaries, anti-American, global socialists, the only common evil which exist in this world, which must be utterly eliminated at all cost, and with prejudice, is not marxist totalitarianism enslaving entire societies, or slavery to ruthless dictators, but rather those who possess faith in God, and believe in moral boundaries, and believe in the individual responsibility necessary for liberty to exist.

These people truly want evil, and deeply desire to be real dictators, and we are in their way!

That’ll fix everything!!!

I see why the deep state loves and wants someone like him.

It reminds me of some movies I saw where the leader is just a figurehead and the ‘assistants’ behind the curtain really control things.

I don’t remember the context, but I do remember David Brinkley commenting on the political discourse of his day by saying it was like being picked apart by ducks. Look at the serious challenges that face this country, and this meathead wants to dink around with the a motto because he feels some people might feels excluded by it. That’s certainly something someone who aspires to be Most Powerful Man (or should I say Person) in the World shouldn’t be wasting his time on.

Now, a more worthy challenge for Pete, which I am sure he will sidestep because he has no answer to the problem, is how to make the VA a place of real quality healthcare for our veterans. What say you, Petey?

Yep, it’s like being picked apart by ducks.

They’ll use Katie Hill as a model. Her affairs were gender neutral.

How many “genders” does the Butt-gigger want to include?

Go easy on him. After all, he is a homo lunatic...and a freakin’ LIB nitwit. A person couldn’t get more confused. By the way, his failing, violent, crappy city is calling for this absentee mayor. Although, now that I think of it, his being “away” campaigning is probable good for that sick city.
