No, not the one referring to technology… the one referring to the Michael Moore’s of the world:

Short, fat people may get rights

BOSTON — Ellen Frankel stands just 4-foot-8 inches tall, a size that allowed larger co-workers to playfully scoop her up at the office and make remarks about her height. Some even patted her on the head.

Lawmakers are considering complaints such as hers as they review a bill that would make Massachusetts just the second state to bar discrimination based on height or weight.

We just keep sliding down that slippery slope, don’t we? Of course, lawmakers eager to pat themselves on the back for carving out yet another protected class to which they can pander for votes on ridiculous issues, ignore the law of unintended consequences… that employers may actually discriminate because of the law. Fearing reprisal for firing someone for reasons unrelated to their ‘protected status’ may result in employers not hiring said person in the first place. Just another ‘card’ that employers have to fear being played when they make legitimate decisions to release an employee…

Republican analyst Todd Domke sums it up best:

‘’We might as well add colorblind, left-handed, allergic-to-cashews, and get it over with.”

In due time, Todd, in due time…

I just wished liberals would get as concerned about protecting us from terrorist enemies as they are about protecting us from hurt feelings…
