well best of luck to y'all in 2018 since you have 0 interest in doing anything but making GBS threads on the group you want to vote for you

as for LGBT)

it wasn't obama or the dems that made that happen. it was the courts. LGBT rights are not something i can put in the "win" category for the dems because they didn't do very much to advance it beyond a vague "made it more acceptable." but isn't obama on record opposing gay marriage? i know hillary was. regardless, from my memory obama did not in any way champion gay rights and definitely cannot take responsibility for its success. to me it seemed a much more organic and grass roots movement that arose in states and won over the populace through outlets like the media. maybe i'm wrong, but that's how i remember it. perhaps you're saying that his election alone was a tacit endorsement of the idea, but that seems obtuse at best. once again, i may be wrong, but i really remember that obama was not a leading figure championing gay rights. perhaps you mean more that it was congress, but i would say thats more symptomatic of the ideological shifts of their constituents, a charge that may have been embraced by some in congress, but i wouldn't say they spearheaded it. i openly accept that i may be wrong and would love evidence to the contrary.

Not to mention that trans rights have stalled. The ACA puts protections in that trans-related things can't be denied... if there's federal funds involved, so things from the marketplace and medicare/medicaid/whatever insurance veterans have idk are completely fine, but if you get insurance through an employer, then tough poo poo you play by their rules. And the title IX bathroom things for school only applied for public schools and was only a guideline, so that was reversed immediately. There is the ability to change a passport with a doctor's note saying that everything's good, tho

There's more than two girls and there's no cups.

swap.avi demonstrates just how desperate people in poorer parts of the world are for even a small amount of money; if those girls would do that for a pretty small amount, what kind of boutique porn are the Trumps and Cruzes of the world making? I suppose the girls could also be human trafficking victims, making the whole thing even worse.

We already know what porn Cruz would make :v:

So opiates in tap water?

Don't need a bill for that. Pruitt will just allow dumping of opiates into the water eventually.
