RE: Hobson’s Choice or damned if you do and damned if you don’t – Some comments on your article about the dilemmas facing modern American Liberals in the 92nd district when choosing between a homosexual and a woman of color.

Mr. Man,

Could it be that you are telling us of an embarrassment of riches?

Gay Pride versus Black Pride.

Does it get any better than this?

Here is my suggestion for the tie breaker.

The candidates differ on the use of school vouchers.

The first one to suggest legislation mandating that children of public officials must attend the nearest public school gets the nod. As a symbol of devotion to public school education we can start in the White House with the Obama girls. No exceptions. None.

Perhaps the two long suffering minority groups would be better served if a transgendered lesbian, a woman of color who was a single mom with children in need of a good Ritalin program, a higher minimum wage, “Midnight Basketball”, alternative shopping classes, and a surcease from the economic thralldom that the low prices at WAL*MART have bound her, were to present herself to the people for their consideration. Do I sense a slam dunk?

I suppose the possibility of her being a sperm donor before her sex change operation, a condition that may have caused her to be the father of her children, may be bit of a stretch. On the other hand Obama found 7 or 8 previously undiscovered states so all things are possible. Now that would be a minority worthy of protection!
