WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Tipper Gore: Military's 'don't ask, don't tell' policy doesn't work By DAVID RANII Raleigh News & Observer February 24, 2002 CARY, N.C. - The military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy regarding gay and lesbian members of the armed services is a compromise measure that isn't working, according to Tipper Gore. "I have a better solution," said the wife of former Vice President Al Gore. "Let's rip it up." Mrs. Gore was the keynote speaker Saturday night at a dinner sponsored by the North Carolina Human Rights Campaign, the state chapter of the nation's largest advocacy group for gays and lesbians. Mrs. Gore told the audience of 650 that she and her husband believe that the "true family values" include all families - "no matter what size, no matter what shape they come in." She spoke in favor of several measures that would make gays and lesbians equal to other Americans under the law, including protection under federal hate-crime law; the passage of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act; and recognition of the parental rights of both members of same-sex couples, not just the biological mother or father. "We cannot rest until Congress adopts federal hate crime legislation that includes sexual orientation. Period," she said. Her appearance carries significance in the political arena. Although Al Gore hasn't declared himself a candidate for the 2004 presidential election, he is starting to signal that he wants a rematch against President Bush, who bested him in the 2000 election. North Carolina voters, who have voted Republican in every presidential election since 1976, helped propel Bush to the presidency over Gore in the 2000 election. Bush received 56 percent of the votes cast in North Carolina vs. 43 percent for Gore. *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U. S. C.
