Dear Senator McCain

You seem to believe very strongly that Don’t Ask Don’t Tell is a very successful program, that while not perfect is effective, and that it works for the majority. Slavery and institutional racism was also a successful “program” that was “effective” and worked for the “majority” as well, except we did eventually realize it was WRONG. Hopefully someday you will realize that discriminating against someone due to their sexual preferences is also WRONG and that DADT doesn’t really work, isn’t all that effective (at what, I don’t know), and the majority is mostly over being freaked out by gay people.

Or you could just not get re-elected, which would please me just fine.

Sincerely,
Someone Who Thinks You Need To Retire

  1. And don’t even get me started on how well treating women like chattel worked for the majority and was also effective and successful. Really, don’t. []

  1. Senators have access to the collective wealth of just about the entire world, or at least as much as they can count and carry to their private bankers in Geneva. Loss of office and therefore opportunity would leave them mere millionaires, and in their sociopath reality that would be tantamount to death. That’s why even obviously gay senators will oppose the bill. Also, in their reality (the oligarchs’ club, in which they hold only associate membership), the people are all chattel by definition.

    The unique belief among Americans that people can be ‘born again’ or that sociopaths can be rehabilitated is the ace-in-the-hole of the ruling class. That’s why the rest of the non-Anglo world doesn’t waste time and stationery writing letters to their representatives or newspapers.
