'We will not sell out our children to the federal government'
Obama's transgender-bathroom push sparks uproar, praise
Published: 19 hours ago
Mike Huckabee, former governor of Arkansas and presidential candidate, took to Twitter Friday morning to express outrage at President Obama’s all-court press for transgender rights – specifically, to allow males to use females’ restrooms – and saying the directive issued by his Justice Department demanding schools turn a blind eye to biology and sex is a revealing insight into the president’s personality.

“It tells you a lot about a man and his priorities when he spends more time pushing transgender bathrooms …” Huckabee wrote, in one tweet.
And that was seconds later, followed by another: “… than he does on improving high school graduation rates or decreasing Black on Black violence.”
Sign the petition demanding an end to the madness! No men in girls’ bathrooms, locker rooms or showers! Just say no!
He’s hardly the one voice to express outrage at Obama’s pressed rights for transgenders, as personified most recently in the Department of Justice’s issuance of guidance to schools telling them to open bathrooms to those of both sexes, as WND reported.
Sen. John Cornyn from Texas said “what the president needs to do is focus on his job and his job is not to intervene in state and local affairs under our constitutional scheme” and clarified “this ought to be a choice made by local officials at the local level held accountable by their own voters.”

Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick told NBC 5 when news of the White House directive broke that “this will be the beginning of the end of the public school system as we know it.”
He also said Obama completely thwarted the will of Congress and the people to enact his own vision of how transgenders should be treated.

“President Obama, in the dark of the night, without consulting Congress, without consulting educators, without consulting parents, decides to issue an executive order … forcing transgender policies on schools and on parents who clearly don’t want it,” Patrick said.
But he was hardly finished.
In a press conference with reporters, Patrick also vowed not to yield to Obama’s “blackmail” approach to enacting his agenda.
“He says he’s going to withhold funding if schools do not follow the policy,” Patrick said, during a press conference. “Well in Texas, he can keep his 30 pieces of silver. We will not yield to blackmail from the president of the United States.”
