I am a MTF transexual

[MoseyWalker]

I am still to be considered human, and know what's going on.

There are too many political games.

Dems pretending to be dems while voting for repuke laws.

I don't care anymore who is going to carry the dem torch, I feel it is ordained to be, again, someone who is not who the people want.

This "democracy" is broken.

And we are part of the reasons why.

I won't vote for anyone who voted for the war.

I won't vote for anyone who still thinks the troop should be slowly pulled out because "we are there".

This democracy is broken.

I am as much a human as you are. And I know, this democracy is broken.

1. Recommended.

This is not a time for the feint of heart or weak of will to lead.

[MoseyWalker]

2. It is time to stop thinking that the size of planes is important

and to begin thinking that the size of peoples hearts is important.

3. We walk hand in hand.

This house supports you every step of the way.

4. Right! We're telling them that they must "stand up" - well . . .

We have to stand up too, or we're not credible. We've got to show that we mean what we say, even if that means sitting this one out. I'm sorry to say.

5. Hey Mosey...did you hear the Diane Rehm show today?

She was interviewing Dr. Renee Richards. It was a very enlightening interview.

I'm a gay man who has struggled with understanding the whole transgender issue. Although I've certainly been accepting of transgendered people, I've never really "understood" it. Dr. Richards' interview helped me understand a lot of things more clearly. Several transgendered individuals called into the show to talk to her, and you could feel the emotion in their voices....being able to talk to one of the pioneers.

I doubt I will fully understand what it must feel like to be trapped in the wrong body, but I came several steps closer today.

And yes...you are human. Don't EVER think otherwise.

7. I missed that show

but, thanks. Friend.

[MoseyWalker]

6. I will love who I choose to love

and who chooses to love me.

I will live my days as best I can in this psycho world.

Democracy is not only broken, but many, if not most, don't even know what it means.

8. What does MTF mean?

Meet the Fockers?

Make Them Filibuster?

Might Try Fishsticks?

I really have no idea. I understand you are angry at politicians, you want an accelerated withdrawal from Iraq, you don't like compromise legislation, you believe the democracy is broken, you won't forgive anyone who voted for the war, and you are human.

But I can't make the connection between being "MTF" (because I don't know what you mean by those three initials) and transexual and your anger. Are they dependent on one another? Or are tangential to your argument?

[MoseyWalker]

11. male to female, and

there is no anger.

15. Sorry.... great big (slap forehead) DOH!!!!!!!!!!

Once you explained it, it seemed obvious. It just didn't click at first, second or third try at sorting it out....

[jonnyblitz]

12. MTF is male to female. FTM is female to male nt

13. Male-To-Female n/t

Brave, principled people like yourself will prevail, MW. We must.

10. Recommended. Democracy IS broken.

[Jamastiene]

14. Absolutely.

We are human beings. It's a shame we have been denigrated to the point that we have to point out that we are human beings just as much as anyone else. And yes, this democracy is very broken.

16. Sexuality has nothing to do with it

I might be considered being weired having one partner in my 54 years, married for 33yrs, celebrate and my wifes caregiver for 9 yrs. I'm as human as your are and feel as you do also about this mess we're in.
This democracy may be broken, but the pieces are still here, and this one will not be swept under.

[MoseyWalker]

17. You are someone to be listened to

peace.''

No sweeping under the rug, one hopes.
