And Sola Veritas took one of these surveys, and testified about it’s bogusness on another thread.

Sola, if you don’t mind copying or re-telling what you said on that other thread some days ago. I should have saved it; I don’t remember which thread it was on.

The “survey” done by DoD was bogus. It was not an attempt to guage what the service personnel thought about openly serving homosexuals, it was about how to implement the policy. I was “tagged” to take the survey as an army reservist. The survey didn’t allow one to clearly state opposition or objection. Here is the opening paragraph in the letter telling me that I had been picked to respond:

“We request your participation in the 2010 Department of Defense (DoD) Compreshensive Review Survey of the Uniformed Force. This survey will help leadership assess the impacts, if any, a change in the law commonly known as “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” might have on military readiness, military effectiveness, unit cohesion, and recruiting and retention. It will also help DoD develop an action plan to support effective implementation if repeal occurs.”

Does this sound like they really care what someone thinks except the bottom line of....will you get out or encourage others to do the same?
