Quotations and context

I've noticed a rise in "news" (infotainment?) organizations taking quotations out of context - sometimes to intentionally prove a false supposition, and sometimes out of cluelessness. In an Associated Press article Oct. 30, 2010, entitled "Retired Chaplains Warn Against 'Don't Ask Don't Tell' Repeal" I was struck by the pullquote - indicated in blue.

The quote reinforced an assumption about the sort of person who might lead a foundation with that sort of name. But what does this pullquote imply?

• Is it ambiguous?
• Did I read it the way most people would, or do different biases determine meaning?
• Who is the "you" implied by the pullquote?
• What is the "it" specifically?

When I came to the quote in context it surprised me. Examine the use of pronouns. In context, where does it appear Weinstein's sympathies lie?
