A couple months ago I posted a scathing discussion regarding the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy. And apparently, there have been some updates regarding this issue.
According to Time Magazine, "The Pentagon took a giant step toward integrating openly gay men and women into the U.S. military on Thursday. No, it didn't repeal 1993's "Don't ask, don't tell" law — only Congress can do that. But it did something that could be almost as important: it eased the enforcement of that law by loosening the regulations that have been used to snare 13,500 gays — and boot them out of uniform — since 1994."
Good for the Obama administration. Although, seeing as the policy was created by an executive order, I don't see why it can't be repealed the same way.
Eh. What do I know?
