Circular Firing Squad
It's forming early!
Not that I think Meehan and Frank are wrong. The policy is antiquated and bigoted. Plus there have been a number of stories over the past couple of years of the military discharging linguists that know Arabic and Farsi, two languages too few military personell can speak, because the linquists are gay. The military's policy is hurting itself.
But, let's not forget the first months of the Clinton White House. When they took this on they instantly lost credibility and went on the defensive. This will spark another round of the so-called culture wars. It will give the corrupt, incompetent and bigoted GOP a chance to regain traction and possibly control of the government.
