DADT: Obama Where Art Thou?

[Strangler Lewis]

I remember when the policy was first discussed, a colonel testifying in support of it said that he would not want his gay son to serve in the military because he would expect him to be murdered in his barracks. Thus, it seems that for purposes of public discussion, we are committed to a military comprised of the most boneheaded members of society. I am not happy ceding pride of ownership of the military to the bonehead class. Plus, if I had a family member in the military, I would not be comfortable with an official policy that my family member was a homicidal bonehead and, therefore, more expendable.
