How dare you!


Mr. Feinberg:

After reading the Meet the Press March 10 transcript of the comments you
made, I can only state; how dare you use the 9/11 tragedy to discriminate
against gay and lesbian Americans!

It simply amazes me that you are willing to turn the other cheek, despite the
direct violation of Federal and State laws against illegal immigration, to
allow the distribution of funds to illegal aliens whose loved ones perished
on 9/11-- but, you'll blatantly discriminate against lawful citizens of the
United States because that are nothing more than the same-sex partners of
those lost! How outrageous!

"Otherwise, Tim, I would find myself getting sued in every state by people
claiming that I'm not following how the state distributes money. I can't get
into that local battle. I've got to rely on state law."

Do you honestly think that some State that condones
discrimination against gays will sue you if you disburse funds to the
surviving same-sex partners of those killed on 9/11? Have you completely
LOST YOUR MIND? What state is going to initiate a lawsuit post
and post 9/11 to stop the humanitarian relief to surviving same-sex
partners?

Obviously, given your stupidity, prejudice, intolerance and hate your
immediate resignation is warranted! How dare you!

Sincerely,
Individual Comment
