This isn’t directly tied to ENDA - nevertheless, a hat-tip goes out to Autumn Sandeen over at Pam’s House Blend for pointing this out: Rudy ‘I Own 9/11 and Three Marriage Licenses’ Giuliani decided to use trans people as a punch line in defense of his position against an anti-gay marriage constitutional amendment.
I don’t think we need a constitutional amendment at this point.

GIULIANI: You got to give me a little slack here. It was New York City, you know, but it’s not just a religious institution.
Thst’s enough from Rudy. Now, I’ll turn to Autumn: “As a transwoman, I’ll remember that joke — and I’ll especially remember it when it comes time to vote.”
Indeed.
