Shadow POTUS Valerie Jarrett praises Jenner for living authentic
2015-06-02
[Breitbart] White House Senior advisor Valerie Jarrett is praising the man once known as Bruce Jenner for announcing via Vanity Fair that would now be known as Caitlyn Jenner.

"Nice to meet you, @Caitlyn_Jenner. The brave choice to live as your authentic self is a powerful example to so many," Jarrett praised Jenner, featuring the Vanity Fair cover on her Twitter account.

Jenner's Vanity Fair cover was widely shared on social media today, but President Obama did not personally address it on his Twitter account.

Jarrett's tweet was the first public reaction from a member of the White House to the news.

#23  #20, but the said son has no problem with unmarked or labeled genetically modified food or animals (frankenfood) in the supermarkets and diners/drive-ins/dives?

#22  Probably when we as a society did not outright reject a tv series based upon a boring family whose brand is based upon a self serving mother using her daughter's postmodern lady godiva ride against anonymity.

Every male who comes within contact with that family ends up with problems, usually alcohol abuse.

If I had to guess, I'd guess that there is a lot of catty ganging up on any men associated with the show, especially if on disagrees with one of them, which doesn't make the show.

Excellent term! Excellent!

#20  It's Thought Crime to ask that, Alan.

My son, a product of the California and Nevada school systems, had a spittle-flecked conniption last night when I dared to broach such a mental health possibility.

#19  Since when, as a society, did we decide it was proper to celebrate mental illness?

#18  Besoeker, according to the Mirror he has no intention of taking the final step, and had a panic attack over regret after the facial surgery. It remains to be seen now well he will stand up under pressure to continue down the path those for such things call "brave".

#17  I hope he doesn't do it -- the regret rate is very high.

Even though seldom used for anything other than a downspout, I'd hate to leave home without it.

#16  Probably a bit TMI, but it is my understanding that in all of the transition, he retained his Johnson.

Stagewise progression. First hormones, then breast implants, then the final surgery. I hope he doesn't do it -- the regret rate is very high. Link And the surgery does nothing to fix underlying psychological problems, such that the university clinics which pioneered the process no longer do the surgeries. Link

#15  As I ask the missus.

When is the trial date? Knowingly operating a motor vehicle way outside safety and error brackets for solely personal reasons got that woman killed.

But the Palace needs a eunich to watch over its media haram. Its nothing new, except the technology to do cutting edge piercings and tattoos.

#14  It's pretty clear by now the idea behind ValJar's comment is to promote anything that will weaken our country and that includes all manner of perversion, substance abuse and misdirection. Weaken the family, the church, the schools, the police, the military and pretty soon you have a country that is ripe for takeover by the likes of Ms. Jarrett.

#13  Richard Fernandez on PJMedia:
America appears to be lying on the floor, as if felled by a stroke, with no memory of how it got there uttering some gibberish about “Glbbl Warmmem”, “Kayee Jennr” and “mamsprdung” and all around it the order familiar to everyone seems to be dissolving into shapelessness.

#11  What the heck would ValJar know about authentic? She probably was the engineer for the Benghazi-video that was blamed on some schmuck in California and was given as the reason the Mooselimbs rioted and killed our ambo.

#10  If he was "living authentic" he wouldn't be wearing a dress and trying to look like Nancy Pelosi. He's authentically male, and will be even after he's dead.

#9  So, is anyone in the White House or State Department not gay? Anyone?

#8  And they're expecting straight white males to die by the thousands to keep this social and governmental system going? At a certain point its - So long and thanks for all the fish.

#4  Well, now that she has spoken up on this pressing issue no one can say that the WH fails to take action on matters of grave concern.

#3  So when will ValJar take off her wig and foundation garments and let everyone know she is actually the 12th Imam or something. Maybe even some general in the Quds Brigade?

She is way to ugly to be a woman.
