hypocrisy


I am writing in reference to the September Fund. I hope I have the right
email address. I just wanted to say that by leaving gay people and their
families out of the funds, you have stooped to the levels of the terrorist.
The terrorist decided on Sept. 11 that a group of people were unworthy. You
have done the same. Our own American history sadly has been about who can
participate in this American dream and who can't. Which group is good and
which groups are bad. Thank goodness for real men like Abraham Lincoln who
read the constitution and saw the words "all men are created equal". When
Medgar Evars wanted to get into a public university in the 60's he had to
take legal action-not because he was black, but because he was an American
first. When will this country wake up. You should be deeply ashamed of
your decision. Their are gay and lesbians fighting for your freedoms around
the world as you read this. Are they also unworthy? The deepest shame
should be upon you.
