I cannot understand how a public official, elected or not, could make such a stand for bigotry and not be stood down by her superiors. Here in Australia there would be such a public outcry if a local council elected representative wasn't doing their job in such a way as to attract national attention and outrage. The state premier would step in and do something. Elected or not she'd be moved from her position.
If it even got that far. The bigoted bitch wouldn't have had a national stage like she's gotten there.
Where the hell are her superiors? Where is the Democratic party demanding her membership card? Do the political superiors above her agree with her? How can you flaunt the law in public office like that? Astonishing.
I've always liked Moby. This new music video is really pissing off all the Trumpets, so all I can say is watch and share :)
About me
After 30 years of very physical full time work in the printing industry our print dept was outsourced and we all lost our jobs. As I'd gotten HIV beforehand and was having trouble attending and doing work I discussed with my HIV doctor whether I should apply for the Australian Disability Support Pension. He agreed,and I became a DSP pensioner under the new Gillard rules of adherence that now sees 75% of DSP applicants rejected.
Have been diagnosed with PTSD, severe depression, chronic kidney failure, and of course HIV. I'd become suicidal in 2009 after 3 extreme life events in a row; My best friend killed herself in the US (I don't make friends easily BTW), my teenage/young adult daughter had me charged by the police with a minor problem, and I was diagnosed with HIV. All in three weeks.
Some say god won't give you more than you can bear, my reply is "Well what happened to me?" If not for the HIV support here in Australia and me being able to have access to it I'd likely be dead by now. Unbearable pain often causes suicide, no matter physical or mental.
Today I've not worked since being made redundant. I remain with episodes of depression and panic attacks, sometimes severe. I may be fine and happy to leave the house, at times I'm paralised in bed, secure and safe and not willing to face the world.
