Friday, March 15, 2002 8:19 PM 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.
