And another LGBT member of Congress has officially won. Former Arizona State Senator Kyrsten Sinema will represent the newest district in Arizona. She is now the first openly bisexual member of Congress ever. She is also the only woman in the House LGBT Equality Caucus given that Senator-elect Tammy Baldwin is moving up to the Senate. Sinema joins Jared Polis (CO), David Cicilline (RI), Mark Takano (CA), Sean Batrick Maloney (NY) and Mark Pocan (WI). Her victory raises the number of LGBT people in Congress to seven. Sinema won her seat by more than 6000 votes, most of them coming in the early and absentee ballots. She beat Republican Vernon Parker. AZ-9 covers parts of Phoenix and several suburbs. Ron Barber, the current holder of AZ-2, has taken the lead over his challenger, but it is unclear if that lead will hold.

They must not be counting the ones hiding in the closet . . .

It is not easy reconstructing 'molded minds'... Published - Nov 12 2012 05:03PM EST Associated Press ATLANTA (AP) — The UPS Foundation says it will no longer give grants to the Boy Scouts of America as long as the group excludes gays and lesbians from being scouts or scout leaders. The philanthropic arm of the Atlanta-based shipping giant made the change Thursday after an online petition protesting the foundation's annual grants to the Boy Scouts attracted more than 80,000 signatures. The UPS Foundation gave $150,000 to the Boy Scouts in 2010. It wasn't clear how much they gave the group last year. UPS spokeswoman Kristen Petrella says groups applying for the grants will have to adhere to the same standards UPS does. The company says it does not discriminate against anyone based on race, religion, disability or sexual orientation. The UPS Foundation distributed $45.3 million in grants last year. https://www.rr.com/news/topic/article/rr/55254887/77593566/UPS_ends_grants_to_Boy_Scouts_over_discrimination There will always be stories people will find interesting enough to distract them from a minor story like this one in this thread.
Not sure what you are saying here...was the article I posted "distract"ing?
It is not easy reconstructing 'molded minds'... The faggots and witches burn in hell. How do you think Heaven gets its heat? There is a vent and a blower to keep us warm. You're basically a log Mike.
OK....it is fucking funny dude!!! That's a new one, indeed! {{{chuckle}}}
It is not easy reconstructing 'molded minds'... And the whining continues.
Says the cross dresser that is still whining about Bush. Thanks Jester.
If I was drunk (and single), I'd probably do her. She's not great, but drunk she looks good enough... of course I'd probably bang a snake if you held it's head... but that's just me...
What's this about you cross dressing Gomer? Never mind, with something like this from you, I don't even want to know.
Has ole Mitch checked in yet? Haven't heard much from him. GOP thinking about dumping their leadership? Wish the Dem's would...Pelosi, Reid? Spare me the thought of another lost opportunity. Time to flush the toilet on both sides of the aisle of the AIPAC purchased "leadership" in Congress.
It is not easy reconstructing 'molded minds'... America was trying to Flush to toilet. But you stuck your hands in the shit and grabbed Obama.
raises the number of LGBT people in Congress to seven
