I beg you to be fair.




I was just reading that the fund my not compensate domestic partners of gay
people killed in the attack on Sept. 11th. What a disgrace that would be.
We hear the President saying that our troops (many who are gay) are overseas
protecting the ideals of American freedom; yet you are willing to condone
discriminating policies against people freely choosing who to love and
commit to. That is shameful. People like and are
heroes, how dare you demean their memories. Treating them differently than
anyone else based on their sexuality is small-minded intolerance at its
worst, very un-American I might say.


I'd recommend you re-think this policy.



Sincerely,
