Summary
This page appears to be part of a letter addressed to the President (contextually Barack Obama) criticizing the delay in rescinding the 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' policy. The author argues that military discipline should extend to treating gay service members equally. The text also discusses the 2012 election, specifically critiquing Mitt Romney for shifting his political stance on abortion (Roe vs. Wade) to win votes in Massachusetts in 1994, allegedly with the permission of LDS church leadership.

Complete text extracted from the document (1,383 characters)
And, Mr. President, that was the forerunner of the same "Don' t ask, don' t tell" policy that you promised to rescind, only you haven' t been acting like a Commander-in-Chief. All you have to do is sign such a directive. Those who serve in the military are trained to follow orders. If they can follow orders to kill fellow humans, they can certainly follow orders to treat openly gay service people with total equality.
Not only is the current guideline counterproductive, but also this display of trickle-down immorality must, on some level of consciousness, serve as a contributing factor to enabling the anti-gay bullying and torturing of innocent victims. I know, you don' t want to take a chance that retracting the policy would interfere with your re-election. You' ve made the point that you don' t want Mitt Romney to win in 2012 and turn around all the good things you' ve accomplished.
Incidentally, Romney had wanted to overturn Roe vs. Wade, yet, in 1994, when he was running for the Senate, he came out in favor of choice for women. However, freelance journalist Suzan Mazur revealed that he admitted to Mormon feminist Judith Dushku that "the Brethren" in Salt Lake City told him he could take a pro-choice position, and that in fact he probably had to in order to win in a liberal state like Massachusetts. Pandering trumps religious belief.
