President Obama has picked Chai R. Feldblum (pictured left) to become a member of the Employment Opportunity Commission, the federal agency which enforces workplace civil rights laws. If confirmed, she would serve 5 years on the EEOC and issue edicts that will impact all areas of employment.
Feldblum isn't known by most Americans but her career experience and employers make her a sort of general counsel to the Forces of Darkness. She has worked for the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), the pro-homosexual Human Rights Campaign Fund and she founded something called the Moral Values Project, a "gender equity" group meant to sound like something conservative.
She is a lesbian and has played a major role in pushing the LGBT agenda in American culture for the past 20 years.
Feldblum is professor of law (gay studies) at Georgetown University. She is the primary author of the pro-gay/transsexual bill known as the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), which is being pushed again in Congress. She is also a strategist for gay activists. She advocates the use of "incrementalism" in the achievement of the gay agenda. She wants to use incrementalism in ENDA, for example, by first covering employment and then later moving to housing and public accommodations. The same tactic was used in another Feldblum-authored bill the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) where housing was the first target and then the ADA was later expanded to cover more areas of our culture.
In the mid-1980s, Feldblum clerked for Supreme Court Justice Harry A. Blackmun, the notorious liberal judge who authored the Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion on demand. He invented a right to abortion not found in the Constitution. Feldblum praised him as someone who had the "ability and desire to look behind the law and see the people is not the classic way to do law .... He brings a sense of caring and compassion that will be missed." Clearly, Feldblum favors liberal judicial activists who ignore the Constitution and who impose their own political views on the law.
She is author of such articles as:
-
Moral Conflict and Liberty: Gay Rights and Religion, 72 Brook. L. Rev. 61-123 (2006).
-
The Right to Define One's Own Concept of Existence: What Lawrence Can Mean for Intersex and Transgender People, 7 Geo. J. Gender & L. 115-139 (2006).
-
Gay is Good: The Moral Case for Marriage Equality and More, 17 Yale J.L. & Feminism 139-184 (2005).
-
The Definition of Disability in the Americans With Disabilities Act: Its Successes and Shortcomings, 9 Emp. Rts. & Emp. Pol'y J. 473-498 (2005) (co-authored piece).
In her paper, "Moral Conflict and Liberty: Gay Rights and Religion," Feldblum argues for legislative and judicial "outcomes that will allow LGBT people to live lives of honesty and safety in today's society."
She believes that eventually, many jurisdictions will have "modified their laws" so that gays will freely marry or have civil unions with the same benefits as marriage.
She also believes that religious people who run businesses or operate other institutions have no right to deny services to gays, lesbians, bisexuals or transgendered persons. "As a general matter, once a religious person or institution enters the stream of commerce by operating an enterprise such as a doctor's office, hospital, bookstore, hotel, treatment center and so on, I believe the enterprise must adhere to a norm of nondiscrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity."
In short, she wants the gay agenda to trump the First Amendment and religious freedom to impose the gay agenda on all Americans - including those with strongly held religious beliefs about homosexuality.
"Once again, President Obama has demonstrated there is no one too radical to serve in his administration," said TVC Executive Director Andrea Lafferty.
"By picking Feldblum, he has signaled to his many fringe group fans on the Left that he will help them accomplish all of their goals to undermine the Constitution and overturn biblical morality and decency in America.
"Liberals hate America and so does a President who insists on appointing them to positions of power and responsibility within his already tottering administration."
