Joe Biden said sex-change surgery is medically necessary for transgender people while pushing for changes that would require insurers to cover such procedures.The former vice president and presumptive Democratic presidential nominee made the assertion during a Wednesday virtual event with the Human Rights Campaign. He received a question on how he would ensure gay and transgender people have access to affordable healthcare."As president, I'm going to protect and build on Obamacare with a public option.

Again, this just shows me how faithless these people are. I firmly believe that liberalism is based on rebellion. A rebellion of living in God's ways. This is the party that is diligently trying to take God out of society. Their beliefs are based on rebellion of His ways.

This so infuriates me!!!!
My cousin NEEDS to get a kidney transplant. She has a donor who has been through the testing and been approved. She has been told that Methodist Hospital in Houston won't do anything on transplants until June 15th. In the meantime she is watching her ankles balloon, falling down from the neuropathy in her feet, dropping weight due to the limited things she can eat (she is very thin already). She has been incredibly diligent with her health as a juvenile diabetic who is in her 60s. She has to continue working to keep her insurance for the transplant.
Why is her surgery not essential!!! Where is her advocate?!

Well, one thing this deadly over reaction to the Chicom virus has done is bring to light just how little virtue is left; how easy it is to take ourselves out; and how so many are ready and willing to quickly become Venezuela. Move over Amorites, there's a new sheriff in town and his iniquity makes you guys look like pikers.

I don't know about Dementia Joe, but I certainly don't need surgery to confirm whether someone is male or female. And neither should anyone who has had 9th Grade Biology.

Biden is really into the sex thing lately - intercourse, assault denials, no protection for college kids accused of assault, trans surgery. Seems he has sex on what little is left of his brain. These are all squirrels to distract from his own history of sexual assault.

I've never heard the term before either, so I'm guessing it means Joe would like to confirm that he's male by surgically moving his penis to his forehead so the fact he is a dickhead will be duly noted.

The video of this event is posted on Facebook. Maybe somebody can explain to me why at about 10 1/2 minutes into the video, Biden suddenly says “shed blood on Christopher Steel” totally out of any context. Weird! Significantly, no news outlet has commented on this.

Biden is parroting every left wing meme he can in order to stay relevant in the rabid progressive cabal that is the democrat party. Most everything they champion is an anathema to traditional American values and sexual mores. They are the party of anti-American socialism, worship of the state, infanticide, division, and excessive hedonism. This is a recipe for destruction which is their ultimate goal.

Sorry Joe but so far there is no such thing as a chromosome transplant so the only such thing that would involve surgery that could in any way be considered confirming of ones true identity as defined by their chromosomes. Perhaps a boob job, performed on a female of course. In your case I might suggest the surgery for a buried penis. I think that would meet the criteria.

I can see surgery to confirm cancer, appendicitis, and possibly other diagnoses. But 'gender' - that has got to be among the most idiotic concepts of all time. To cut off a penis or breasts to confirm gender - excuse me? And what if gender wasn't 'confirmed' - are you going to sew the organs back in place! Biden's speech writers only further our awareness of Joe's lack of a brain.

Hey Joe, if you have penis you are a male. If you don't you are female. Nothing can change that.

Biden is going off the deep end. Who is advising him? In the general election, the Democrat needs to pretend like he's a moderate, not double-down on the real agenda.

Tattoos should also be paid for via the ACA. How are tattoos any different than having your body altered to resemble a different sex? And veterinary bills should be covered by ACA also--isn't your dog part of your family?

The reason progtards use the word 'gender' is because it has some fluidity, or at least vagueness to it. That is precisely because 'gender is a linguistic term. It has no scientific or medical truth to it. Joe is trolling for votes from Loony Tunes that think you can turn an alarm clock into a motorcycle.

When Joey Fingers slipped his hand into the underwear of Tara Reade he was getting 'gender confirmation'. I understand now.
Homosexuals aren't denied health care because of sexual orientation and mentally confused gender benders still get treatment so what's the problem, Joe? Joe must be pandering for the 'sexually confused' voters way to go Joe covering all bases.

#5, gender confirmation surgery means female genital mutilation (FGM) for girls, castration for boys --- in other words, intentional sexual maiming --- followed up by sewing in false imitation sex organs of the opposite sex. This, bizarrely, is a treatment for a mental illness which causes some people to be uneasy about themselves and want to become permanent, sterile impersonators of the opposite sex.

God makes the selection shortly after conception and that's the only confirmation that is necessary. How has the world survived for tens of thousands of years before man learned to use a scalpel? Give up the ghost, Joe.

The Trans-Activists used Orwellian double-speak to gives us "gender confirmation" for what is "sex correction" (and even that term would be problematic, since the correct sex is what you're born with).

Democrats seem to sniff out the most arcane "victim" groups sometimes. How many votes does Biden calculate (doubt he's capable of much of that these days) he can gain by pandering to the I'm-an-X-trapped-in-a-Y-body? Enough to make a difference? Oh, but The Narrative, of course! Democrats rep for every "victim" group, no matter how big or how small. At the expense of ordinary, working, tax-paying Americans who they do NOT represent. But whatever it takes, right, MaligNancy?
