It's a good day for this topic. Or, rather, a sad day for this topic. Yesterday our country missed an opportunity to repeal the shameful Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy that's been in place since 1993. An overwhelming majority of Americans are in favor of repealing this policy--including my dad, who was a 22-year Army veteran, an officer, and a soldier in two wars. He once said to me "It makes no sense to make people lie when you're asking them to pledge to serve their country with honor. There's no honor in lying."
Amen, Daddy-o.
And to quote Forrest Gump, that's all I have to say about that.
