Vice President Joe Biden said transgender discrimination is \u201cthe civil rights issue of our time\u201d during a visit to a Florida field office on Tuesday, according to pool reports.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
That\u2019s something. The current administration is not in the least concerned about preserving unborn life, even under a \u201csafe, legal, and rare\u201d regime, but the vice-president says there is no more urgent civil rights concern than protecting transgenders from discrimination. I look forward to the Letter From the Birmingham Jail produced by the Civil Rights Movement Of Our Time.

If you like this kind of thing, vote Obama, for more of the same. If not, not. For me, this is another indication of how religious liberty is likely to fare under Obama and the judges he appoints, in the face of gay civil rights claims.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
