Once he understood what the letters stood for, he said that while he opposed discrimination, he supported the discriminatory exclusion of out gays in the military and opposed same-sex marriage.

William Sleaster, the sophomore who asked the question, followed up in a way that put the questioners on the HRC/LOGO forum to shame. "You want to take away someone's rights because you believe it's wrong," he said.
When McCain replied, "I don't put that interpretation on my position, but I understand yours," Sleaster shot back, "I came here looking to see a leader. I don't."
Earlier McCain "joked" to a student who questioned his age and mental competence, "Thanks for your question, you little jerk... you're drafted." McCain supports the war in Iraq, but clearly sees serving there as a punishment.
