| 33. I'm appalled and shocked at this survey |
|
I think most Obama supporters are. I believed the concept of the survey would be to delve into legal issues, like what would constitute job harrassment or discrimination, things like that.
Would you shop at the commissary if there was someone gay there? It's necessary to ask that?? Or, would you stop going to the officers club if you thought someone there was gay? You would?? Well, the officers club just got a lot snazzier then.
The whole thing was stomach-churning. I honestly could not believe anybody even thought to put those questions to paper, let alone that they were approved and by a number of people.
