Ever. I don't care if it's the biggest issue, or if there are a whole pile of bigger issues, this was worth fighting for and should have never been enacted in the first place. There is never an excuse for anyone being required to hide who they are. Yes, he's self serving. So what. I'm very glad that I lived on this day in our nation's history. <br /> <br />P.S...I will not be sharing your post with my very close friend who has been in the military for 15 years. And has been hiding his identity for all of that time. Yeah yeah, sure he knew about it ahead of time. I'm not sure that makes it right. And I won't tell you about his partner...and the therapy, the pain, and the suffering they have gone through.A Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05066992019067893513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5185139.post-32572043350105817792010-12-19T21:44:34.724-05:002010-12-19T21:44:34.724-05:00As one of your heterosexual fans I feel particular...As one of your heterosexual fans I feel particularly qualified to respond to your post not just because I have had Mr. Briskets salami but I also took sociology at Northwestern with Moskos who wrote "don't ask, don't tell." LIke Cubby points out society is evolving toward equality, not kicking and screaming but in a self congratulatory way. But it is moving.

This is a step towards getting those "bigger gay rights". It's not about all of us gays and lesbians mincing and prancing to the recruitment office, it's about the end of discrimination.Jonnynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5185139.post-54391585313865911072010-12-19T08:41:52.861-05:002010-12-19T08:41:52.861-05:00Bobby I say Amen to the preacher.
