Charles6682 -> Obama goofed up on "Don't ask,Don't tell" (10/21/2010 1:13:10 AM)

I support Obama.I voted for him in 2008.However,there are time's though he does not get it right.The Don't ask,don't tell policy is one of them.He say's he's for ending this policy.Okay,if this is true,why is his justice of Department trying to fight a court ruling that end's this ban.I understand that the military want's to finish it's studu on ending the practice.He say's this will end on his watch.How so,through congress?I doubt it.Congress already tried to end this not too long ago.It couldn't pass now mostly because of Republican's and a few ultra conservative Democrat's.I certainly don't think he'll get it through congress after the election's unless the Democrat's actually win extra seat's.If anything,the Democrat's are probaly going to lose some seat's this year.Here,this court ruling give's Obama a De facto way of ending this policy with resorting to congress.The court's have already cleared the way.If they want to postpone this ruling until after the Military is finished with it's study,then that's fine.I undersatand the transition persiod.But don't try to overturn the court's decision all the way.The court has handed Obama a chance to keep his promise.

Somehow-  I just dont worry about this issue.

it isnt like I would change my mind and go into the Army if they changed it.

I believe the Rand Study (I think that is what it was called, and I believe it was released sometime between 04 and 06) found that the best way to integrate gays into the military would just be to end the ban flat out in one go. No waiting, no slow goes, just a one shot deal. And yes, I'm pissed at Obama too. Discrimination is just wrong! If you want to give your life for our country's freedom, I don't care who you sleep with!
