If there is a poster child for the utter insanity of Don't Ask Don't Tell, its Lt Dan Choi.
A decorated veteran of Iraq who recently came out of the closet.
A military panel has recommended that he be discharged from the National Guard despite NO EVIDENCE THAT HIS SEXUAL ORIENTATION IS PREJUDICIAL TO GOOD ORDER AND DISCIPLINE.
And, Oh By The Way, he is an Arab linguist, something the military has a distinct shortage of.
So we continue to pursue a utterly mindless policy based on old prejudices that most members of the military no longer care about and that have cost us the patriotic services of more than 12,000 patriotic Americans who wanted to do the PATRIOTIC thing and serve their country in the military.
This is insanity beyond description.
Don't Ask, Don't Tell IS HARMING OUR NATIONAL SECURITY.
