How to make a mess of things

There is a devious plan afoot to divide the gay community and embarrass the Democratic candidates for Prez during an election year. Even better, it appears to be doing something for gays. Here's how it works: A few months ago the House passed a version of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act that gave protections to gays but not to transgender people. That set off a huge firestorm in the gay community, some saying we should get what protections we can while we can and other saying that if we leave the transgenders behind no one will come back to include them. So now introduce that same bill in the Senate. That way the gay community will be distracted and feuding all over again and won't be putting their efforts into the election. In addition, a few senators campaigning for prez will actually have to pick one side and seriously annoy the other side. Both the gay community and prez candidates lose. Then Bush vetoes it. Such a devious plan sounds worthy of the GOP. Alas, no. The bill is being pushed by Democrat Ted Kennedy. One would think by now he would be politically savvy. You can be sure that though the GOP didn't come up with this disaster they will exploit it for all they can.
