Benefits Extended To Federal Employees’ Domestic Partners

Friday, June 19, 2009

President Obama signed a memo that expanded benefits to domestic partners of federal employees, including same-sex couples. What do you think?

Kath Santrello,
Systems Analyst
"This is just a sneaky way for Obama to make homosexuals American citizens."

James Rudow,
Edge Burnisher
"Like federal employees don't screw around on the job enough as it is. Now they'll be spending all their time on Craigslist trying to find a domestic partner."

Ryan Welker,
Golf Range Attendant
"How immoral! Accessing a partner's flexible spending account to purchase prescription eyewear with pretax earnings is a right that should only be granted to those in religiously-sanctioned heterosexual relationships.”
