Unbelievable! That is outrageous, but I'm glad to see they backed off. My husband's cousin is a democratic state rep in Mass running for the DA. (We think he's liberal, but he says that he finds himself having to convince certain constituents that he isn't conservative.) Anyway, his son went to the Air Force Academy so I know not every liberal in Massachusetts is a military-hating loon.
Yes, it's good to see the will of the people is being heard!
