Honestly, that is it? I hate to do the ultimate civil rights question, but it is the right one: if it is 1948 and African-Americans? Would your bottom line be as important?

Please remember, I have friends serving now who fear that their income source, as will as their whole career and reputation will always be on the edge as long as DADT exists.

I updinged the post, but I don’t think the conversation is going anywhere. DF is being honest about his situation. As Tip O’Neill said, al politics is local. ANd nothing is more local than your wallet and the pressure of taking care of your family. Abstract comes second to concrete.
