Today’s Kaddish is for that exemplar of awful legislation, the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” law that finally received its dishonorable discharge from the United States armed forces. It’s a Kaddish for institutionalized oppression, ignorance sanctified by a government, disgraceful narrow-mindedness.
A kaddish for those who were asked, who told, who weren’t asked, who didn’t tell, who were discharged, who died in service, who died in sadness at undeserved discharge.
