| The headline that WILL be, and why they're fighting DADT: |
|
"Veteran awarded Medal of Honor, demands marriage equality."
It's that simple. "They" know that the first decorated gay soldier who speaks up will win -- the noise machine on the right has no defense against a man in uniform.

| 3. What about the Swiftboating of Kerry? The Wrongful Right has no honor. |

They have and will continue to go after our people in uniform. The true honorable thing to do is to end DADT immediately. It is deplorable to continue this injustice against gay soldiers. The actual truth is that the Wrongful right are a bunch of homophobic racists.
