		<description><![CDATA[If the only problem with this survey you can find is that it uses the word &quot;homosexual,&quot; frankly you&#039;re not looking hard enough.  How about the fact that they&#039;re doing the survey at all? It will without a doubt be used to justify maintaining Don&#039;t Ask, Don&#039;t Tell, because &quot;the troops aren&#039;t ready for it.&quot;  In a community based entirely on top-down orders, the idea of asking the low men on the totem pole whether they agree is unheard-of.  Furthermore, the Pentagon said they wanted to hear from partners of current gay/lesbian servicemembers - nevermind that in order to do that, they&#039;d have to out themselves and, by extension, their partners who aren&#039;t protected under any kind of new law or policy.  Talk about ridiculous.]]></description>
