CULTE-Times: Pacing morality

Submitted March 13 (slightly revised):
To the Editor:

Re:General Stands by Stance Against Gay Troops (March 13)

"Gay rights groups strongly condemned General Pace for his remarks."

They are not the only ones.

Add this middle-aged, married, white, heterosexual, religiously observant, son of a decorated combat veteran and father of a rabbi to the list.

Pace should focus his energies on his losing war(s), and on the needless and self-defeating loss of courageous gay and lesbian soldiers (including talented and much needed Arabic linguists), to our efforts. He should keep his ridiculous and offensive comparisons and personal moral judgments to himself.
