Obama certifies "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" repeal - Political Hotsheet - CBS News

President Obama on Friday signed a certification of Congress' repeal of the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy banning gay men and women from serving openly in the military, setting the stage for the Clinton-era policy to be formally abolished on September 20, 2011.

Mr. Obama hailed the "final major step toward ending the discriminatory" policy in a statement, saying "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" effectively "undermines our military readiness and violates American principles of fairness and equality."

One more step and it's all over.
 
Hang on... wait... wait...

Nope... still straight.

Is this a promise? I sure hope so.

I am sick to damn death of all the attention this gets.

Now the damage to openly Homosexuals will escalate and we will be talking about deaths on the battlefield, and I hope it doesn't happen but some people never change.

My Gay Brother was beaten up pretty badly when he was stationed in Germany, and it was really bad.
