I lost all respect for Colon Powell when he jumped ship to support Obama. Might have been different if he had been a democrat from the begining. Not a fan of people that jump ship to swim with the rats.

But did they identify as women? Oh who am I kidding? Only in the West would find people who would entertain such a perverse question.

Ah, yeah it's an archive. Here's the lede -

A note to our readers: In the process of assigning this post, we were informed that its author, historian Greg Grandin, was having his own Kissinger biography reviewed by the New York Times Book Review. While we were not informed of the date that the review would be appearing, it turns out to be in the same edition of the New York Times Book Review in which Roberts’ essay appears. In its review, the Times described Grandin’s work as a “fresh argument that, although more provocative than convincing, amounts to one of the most innovative attacks on Kissinger’s record and legacy.” This was relevant information that should have been included in the post, especially in a discussion of the ethics around writers’ conflicts of interest. We should have inquired with Grandin as to the timing of the review of his book and reported that fact in the post, and we apologize for failing to do so.

I've been led to believe that if you really, really think you should be blind, you should be blind and everyone is required to celebrate it.

You want bizarre?
Vera Farmiga did a movie about people with this kind of disorder. It was sick, weird and interesting all at the same time.
The movie was Quid Pro Quo find info at IMDB: Quid Pro Quo (2008) - IMDb

Now there is a f---ing idiot. If that's what she want, more power to her. However, being that this is self inflicted, she deserves no special treatment at the cost of the taxpayer.

This is called "transabled", and it got some popularity this year. People wanted to be amputees by choice.

Why is a women who has self inflicted blindness called an "idiot", but a man who intentionally has his junk cut off hailed as a "hero"? Isn't it the same/similar mental disorder?

 

[daddyusmaximus]

Not by my standards... I say he's an idiot too. That particular idiot the other idiots is calling a hero... I read he still has his junk.... idiot.
