And the dictionary.

Why does this bother you so much?

I had a meeting once with a woman who’s public images suggested she was lesbian and more importantly, I knew was married to another woman.

Early on in the meeting she asked “You know I’m lesbian right? I’m just checking because some people have issues with that.”

My simple response: “I don’t care.”

Her response: “Thank you for that.”

Easy peasy for any reasonable person.
:nod: On a professional level, it's none of my business how a person dresses, who they sleep with, etc. On a personal level, I want people to be themselves and to be happy with that.

Rachel Levine's transgender status should be irrelevant. The performance as Pennsylvania's Secretary of Health is very relevant.

One unit, which had been resting in the Dirksen Senate Office building, was abruptly told to vacate the facility on Thursday, according to one Guardsman. The group was forced to rest in a nearby parking garage without internet reception, with just one electrical outlet, and one bathroom with two stalls for 5,000 troops, the person said. Temperatures in Washington were in the low 40s by nightfall.

Agreed, however you also had the msm spinning lies that he wouldn't do this.

Also getting a laugh at the "pro-lifers" that voted for Biden* and are shocked that tax payer money can be used on overseas abortions again.

And then there are the feminists and the whole "dude can play on girls teams and go into girls locker rooms" thing Biden green lit. :rofl:

There were two candidates - when you just have two choices, it's extremely likely that the one candidate you pick will have views/positions you favor, but of course will have some that you ardently oppose as well. If there's a magical candidate with whom you are lock step in with every issue then you might be that candidate and not realize it.

Yeah, but Biden himself said he wanted to ban fracking and eliminate fossil fuel. Are you going to believe what the guy says, are what the MSM tells you to believe?

You're #1 issue should be above all others, is a roof over your head & food on the table. For people in the oil & natural gas energy, including those employed on the Keystone XL, if you vote for a candidate who stated he wants to eliminate your job, and then complain after he does so, then you are a :dunce:

I agree, just commenting on Ibanez's post that seem to indicate you could avoid not liking something depending on how you voted. For single issue voters, sure, but I'm not sure how many folks are truly single issue voters.

Good. The oil industry needs to start getting dismantled and shrunk.

Enough subsidizations, handouts, corporate bailouts, and foreign imperialism. Help affected workers through expanded unemployment benefits and offer them free education and training to move onto something else, but make it clear America is changing.

In life you either adapt or get left behind. Nothing is forever, and neither your job nor mine should get in the way of progress.

That means more of your peeps getting skullfucked by broke dick foreign policy hell bent on extracting cheap oil overseas. It's not that hard to comprehend. There's a reason Trump didn't have to start new wars in oil rich countries. :coffee:

I'm saying you shouldn't be surprised when the person you voted for does something he said he'd do. And if you weren't aware that he was going to nix the pipeline, then you weren't an informed voter.
