OT for Thrusday 'Super Delegates' and all that Jazz
Submitted by shaharazade on Thu, 02/11/2016 - 6:00amGood morning you 99%'ers. I've been missing in action here lately as I got sucked into the big suck hole of this election at dkos and on FB. I have gone all partisan or have I? I just can't let go. Why should I have to I'm a human, a citizen, a person who cares about the world I'm living in. Still getting bogged down in total crap is demoralizing. I really can't wrap my feeble mind around why I'm having to do this over and over again.
New Jersey transgender rights bill resurrected
Submitted by Robyn on Thu, 02/04/2016 - 1:21pmA bill to allow transgender people born in New Jersey to change the sex listed on on their birth certificate without being required to have undergone surgery rises for the third time today.
Though New Jersey has issued changed birth certificates to residents who undergo sex reassignment surgery since the nineteen-eighties, those who do not want or cannot afford surgery have no recourse. A new version of the bill goes to the Senate Health, Human Services and Senior Citizens Committee Thursday.

Cartoon: Les Beastiables -- Presidential Candidate and Senator Marco Rubioceros!
Submitted by elenacarlena on Fri, 08/21/2015 - 8:44pmLes Beastiables ("Les Bez"): Beasties say the darnedest things!
Today's Beastiable is Senator Marco Rubio. He has said several beastly things, yet is considered a front runner for the Republican nomination for President. Thus he has earned his turn as one of Les Beastiables.
NOTE FOR NEW READERS: This series features a new Les Beastiables cartoon here on caucus99percent every Friday afternoon/evening. We indulge in a little Franglish because the French are tres classy. But I digresse.
For serious source information, please join me below the break. Then you'll be able to "cleanse your palate" with a photo before you leave.
It's time to stop making fun of Donald Trump
Submitted by gjohnsit on Sat, 07/18/2015 - 5:55pmComedians love him. Donald Trump is practically a caricature of himself. He's so rediculous he should be an asterisk in the polling results.
Yet Trump leads all Republicans in the polls. Not just one poll, not just one state, and not just one week. Why?
Most people write it off as a fluke. It's not sustainable. It's just a temporary embarrassing moment in American politics.
