DADT: Obama Where Art Thou?

Since I'm generally opposed to the president saying "I'm going to just not enforce this properly legislated and confirmed constitutional law" I'm all in favor of the burden being on congress to repeal it (yes, I'm aware that there is a currently in play loophole that allows Obama to do this without actually just ignoring DODT, page 3).

That said, I certainly would put complaining about it at the top of my priority list if Obama were to do so while waiting.

And while part of me admires the vigor with which the president is supporting constitutional laws on the book with which he claims disagreement it is still pissing me off since he has done nothing to show he is planning action towards getting them reversed.
