2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Clinton angry at gay-friendly passports, worried about Fox/Palin [View all]LuvLoogie
(6,973 posts)127. She opposed the offered change and suggested an alternative,
which is better than both the old form and the change to parent 1 and parent 2. Thanks Hillary!
She wasn't opposed to changing the form. But wait, there's at least 30,000 more chances to be disgusted with Hillary.
