Tennessee anti-trans bill fails
Submitted by Robyn on Wed, 03/23/2016 - 12:53pmA bill which would have forced Tennessee's transgender youth to use restrooms matching the sex assigned to them at birth failed in a House committee yesterday.
Religious conservatives had pushed the legislation, which was sponsored by Rep. Susan Lynn, R-Mt. Juliet, and Mike Bell, R-Riceville. But there was concern that the proposal might create more confusion — local schools already have their own policies on transgender students' bathroom use.
The bill died in a House Education Administration and Planning Committee meeting that was packed by transgender youth who opposed the measure.

The Real Reason the Dem Establishment wants Bernie to get out of the race
Submitted by Auburn Parks on Wed, 03/23/2016 - 11:11amPeople love narratives. And the media love narratives. So lets compare two possible narratives going into the next Dem primary (either 2020 if HRC loses to Trump or 2024 if she becomes the president (keep in mind that these are political narratives, they are not necessarily true)
Narrative 1:
What is behind the Trump phenomenon?
Submitted by gjohnsit on Wed, 03/23/2016 - 11:00amI was watching a recent Daily Show episode and how it blamed Trump's rise entirely on the news media hungry for viewers, and I couldn't help but remember how this same show literally begged Trump to run just last July, and how hypocritical they are to point fingers now.
Classic diaries: Book Review: Lance Selfa's "The Democrats"
Submitted by Cassiodorus on Wed, 03/23/2016 - 9:05amAuthor's note: This book review was published 16 February of 2011, and I'm surprised it went through over at Orange without comment, as Lance Selfa does reveal in detail how insidious the Democratic Party really is.

Stories such as this continue to pile up this election season. The Democratic Party and it's goon squad of corporate government bureaucrats are at work here.
Aisha Dew Surrogate Posts Defense at Daily Kos (UPDATED)
Submitted by Steven D on Tue, 03/22/2016 - 4:55pmUPDATE: It seems that Noah Cartageno took down his post at the GOS while I was composing this response. Mea culpa. I wish I had copied the entire diary. It was very nasty toward anyone and everyone in the Sanders' campaign other than Aisha Dew. But all that is left of it are the couple of fair use excerpts I've shown here.
