What Trump should say to the world. It ought to be more than acceptable to those who lean to the left.

With all due respect, the fact is we have no dead Americans. Is the uproar over Russia because of a meeting or was it because of guy sends out an email inviting my son to a meeting with a Russian or some college students who went out for a walk one night and decided that they’d they go start fires or break out windows of some American businesses? What difference at this point does it make?

You're right...only laughter is invoked these days. The liberal nose is out of joint now because Trump reckons that the military would profit by not getting stuck with sex-changes for its members, who in process might have hormonal relapses or gone-wrong surgeries (maybe infections installing vaginas in men who would rather be women) requiring their absence from the wars here and there. Recruiting nightmare...folks joining up for free sex-changes. Egad!

Transgender GI

The prexy ruled transgenders be
Recruited militarily
Because correct diversity
Means even monkeys must be free
From stigma whether he or she
As per one's sex-reality
And not to what apparently
Was Nature's way...mistakenly?

And so a he who is a she
Reports to boot-camp grudgingly
And finds her clothes are dungaree
As if she is another he;
She gives her name as Mary Lee
And finds her skivvies not panty
But boxer-shorts unwittingly
Thrown in her arms in great, good glee.

Then off to barracks—hup-two-three—
And to the restroom speedily
Only to find disgustingly
Those urinals...oh my, oh me,
And grown men standing easily
Before them, maybe two or three,
Exposed...oh yes...genitally...
Oh dear! Such trauma to a she.

The drill sergeant, no wit had he,
Had not seen femininity
And had not seen her purse to be
A sign that she was not a he;
Thus later off to Barracks B,
Where female GIs all would be
Exposed to her, a fellow she,
And giggle...yeah...in great, good glee.

The US Army spends way more on Viagra than it does on gender-reassignment-related medical care.

This is not to support Trump's transgender announcement, but one of the frequent side effects of PTSD is ED. That may not be a legitimate concern or may be largely irrelevant in the argument.

The information on Viagra and other ED treatments comes from CBS News:



Jim's position taken above seems to say that ED treatment should not be a government function. I'm trying to get him to clarify what he meant.

Where does the gender identity end and the cost to accommodate any person who wants to be recognized as a specific gender begin?

FB lists 58 genders,, as listed by ABC...

The following are the 58 gender options identified by ABC News:

Agender
Androgyne
Androgynous
Bigender
Cis
Cisgender
Cis Female
Cis Male
Cis Man
Cis Woman
Cisgender Female
Cisgender Male
Cisgender Man
Cisgender Woman
Female to Male
FTM
Gender Fluid
Gender Nonconforming
Gender Questioning
Gender Variant
Genderqueer
Intersex
Male to Female
MTF
Neither
Neutrois
Non-binary
Other
Pangender
Trans
Trans*
Trans Female
Trans* Female
Trans Male
Trans* Male
Trans Man
Trans* Man
Trans Person
Trans* Person
Trans Woman
Trans* Woman
Transfeminine
Transgender
Transgender Female
Transgender Male
Transgender Man
Transgender Person
Transgender Woman
Transmasculine
Transsexual
Transsexual Female
Transsexual Male
Transsexual Man
Transsexual Person
Transsexual Woman
Two-Spirit

Do we have to support and help surgically conform any and all humans who identify as something other than the gender they were born with?

Pandora's evil box is being opened
...



Or do those here who want to support transgender operations paid for by taxpayer dollars... have their boundaries also?

I don't mean this in any way pruriently, but what do the asterisks on the various Trans options refer to? And why do only the Trans have those choices? Why no Cis* ?

So Jon, do you know anybody (reasonably well; relative, or friend, or parishioner) who self-identifies as any of these other than Male and Female? Which, I note, seem to be missing from ABC's list.

Which will markedly decrease the motivation to self-identify as something stupid. You never watched M*A*S*H?

With Jon, money is always the bottom line, and particularly, what it is going to cost him. It's never about anything else, and it is always in a selfish context, basically, what he doesn't like, and what he doesn't want to pay for.
