I SUPPORT THE RIGHT OF EVERYONE TO LIVE THE WAY THEY WANT TO.

Technical Sergeant Leonard Matlovich (1943–1988) was a Vietnam War veteran, race relations instructor, and recipient of the Purple Heart and the Bronze Star.

Matlovich was perhaps the best-known openly gay man in America in the 1970s. His fight to stay in the United States Air Force after coming out of the closet became a cause célèbre around which the gay community rallied. His outspoken manner resulted in articles in The New York Times and a television movie on NBC. His photograph appeared on the cover of the September 8, 1975 issue of Time magazine, making him a symbol for thousands of gay and lesbian service members.^[1] In October 2006, Matlovich was honored by GLBT History Month as a leader in the history of the GLBT community.

how stupid can someone get?

With all due respect to all political parties,this is asinine to compare the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES to Adolf Hitler and what he did to the Jews.This just totally pissed me off,and I just had to speak up. even if you do not agree with the President.SHOW HIM THE RESPECT DUE TO HIM AS THE PRESIDENT!!!!
It was pointed out to me that even President George W.Bush was compaired to Hitler. no AMERICAN PRESIDENT HAS EVER TRIED TO WIPE OUT A RACE/POPULATION LIKE HE DID.THAT MAN WAS PURE EVIL.NO PRESIDENT HAS EVER DONE ANYTHING LIKE THAT!

Eunice Kennedy Shriver critical at Mass. hospital

BARNSTABLE, Mass. – Eunice Kennedy Shriver, the sister of President John F. Kennedy and a longtime champion for the disabled, was in critical condition Friday at a Massachusetts hospital.

Shriver, 88, was surrounded by her husband, children and grandchildren at Cape Cod Hospital in Barnstable, said family spokesman Stephen Rivers.

California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, the husband of Shriver’s daughter, Maria, was also there, said Aaron McLear, a spokesman for the governor.

Shriver has been weakened in recent years by a series of strokes. She lives in Hyannis Port, near the family compound where her brother, U.S. Sen. Edward Kennedy, has been staying as he undergoes treatment for brain cancer.

Sen. Kennedy was seen leaving the compound Friday in a golf cart with his wife and dog, headed toward the area where the family sailboat is docked.

Shriver is the fifth of the nine Kennedy children. Edward Kennedy and Jean Kennedy Smith are her sole surviving siblings.

In an recent interview posted on eunicekennedyshriver.org, Sen. Kennedy said his sister has never backed down from the rest of competive clan.

“She always strived to be the best, and she in many respects has made such an extraordinary difference in the lives of so many people around the world,” he said.

Shriver is perhaps best known for her work to establish the Special Olympics, inspired in part by the struggles of her mentally disabled sister, Rosemary.

She organized the first Special Olympics in 1968 in Chicago. The two-day event drew more than 1,000 participants from 26 states and Canada. By 2003, the Special Olympics World Summer Games, held that year in Dublin, Ireland, involved more than 6,500 athletes from 150 countries.
