Why is Mr. Feinberg being a bigot?


I just heard that a very anti-American member of your staff, Kenneth
Feinberg, is planning on limiting what kind of compensation goes to gay and
lesbian victims of the September 11 terrorist attacks. And the way the
rules read, gays and lesbians will probably get nothing.

I was sad to hear that you even had such an obviously unAmerican scumbag of
this type on your staff. To think that there are people who would deprive
any victim of 9/11 assistance reminds me of how this country does not treat
everyone equally.

Please tell Mr. Feinberg that if indeed he plans on limiting what kind of
compensation goes to gay and lesbian victims of 9/11 he must also limit
compensation for all other Americans. I have gay friends who are victims
and to see that the very help they need will be deprived because of bigotry
and hatred, especially in American where these victims were killed BECAUSE
THEY WERE AMERICAN. I guess Mr. Feinberg now has the power to decide who is
"more" American than another. It's amazing he ever got into the role he is
in, was he hired by idiots?

If he can't do that, tell him I highly suggest he go step down and let
someone American handle the job.

Sincerely,




The List
