Wednesday, March 13, 2002 7:02 AM Important - 9/11 Fund not fair in distribution of funds to Gays! President Bush, I am forwarding the message below along with my own message to you of this terrible injustice. I am an expatriate working and living in the UK along with a small group of Americans on 9/11. I am a very proud American and soon found that displaying patriotism for my country helped ease the pain. Among our little group of Americans was , sender of the below message, and his partner that displayed their patriotism as well as any American AND TEXAN anywhere. Yes, they are gay, but so what? They at least have the courage to stand up for what is right, and I want you Mr. President, to know that my wife and I are with and this cause 100%. To deny anyone what they deserve from the 911 tragedy because of the way they have chosen to live is outrageous and as criminal as the tragedy itself. Your actions since 911 have made me very proud to be an American, but I urge you and the 911 Fund folks to please take the next step, get a grip, face the real world and stop this bigotry.
