JULY 9, 2010, SU Press Release: “Servicemembers United… today strongly condemned the biased and derogatory design of the long-awaited Defense Department survey on issues related to the repeal of the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell law. … ‘it is simply impossible to imagine a survey with such derogatory and insulting wording, assumptions, and insinuations going out about any other minority group in the military’, said Alexander Nicholson, Executive Director of Servicemembers United ….’Unfortunately, this expensive survey stokes the fires of homophobia by its very design ….. The Defense Department just shot itself in the foot by releasing such a flawed survey to 400,000 servicemembers, and it did so at an outrageous cost to taxpayers.’

Nicholson added, ‘Flawed aspects of the survey include the unnecessary use of terms that are known to be inflamatory and bias-inducing in social science research, such as the clinical term “homosexual”‘ an overwhelming focus on the potential negative aspects of repeal and little or no inclusion of the potential positive aspects of repeal or the negative aspects of the current policy; the repeated and unusual suggestion that a co-worker or leader might need to “discuss” appropriate behavior and conduct with gay and lesbian troops; and more’.”

This revisionism, following his crooning “everything is beautiful in its own way” despite the military transparently dragging its feet on actual repeal with bogus claims including that the legislation required “training” BEFORE implementation makes one wonder if someone is eyeing a Pentagon job.

Fools! You’re TOO FREAKING LATE! DADT is well on its way to be thrown into the garbage can and there’s absolutely NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO STOP IT! So shut the (BLEEP) up and go home!
