At the end of the day, that IS what the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” debate comes down to, ending discrimination. You either believe gays should be discriminated against, or you don’t. I believe they should not be. Not in the U.S. military, or anywhere else.
The nation’s top military advisors are not the Joint CHEERLEADERS of Staff. It is not their role to publicly applaud or deride the political policies of the civilian leadership. Their job is to salute smartly, and carry out their orders.
What critics miss is that the President can’t change the law that forces gays in uniform to cover-up their sexuality. Only Congress can. It’s Congress, not the President, that’s ignoring the growing sentiment in America to end discrimination against lesbians homosexuals in the U.S. military.
