What a leader.

Retired General and former NATO Supreme Allied Commander Wesley Clark said Sunday that a repeal of the military's "Don't ask, don't tell" policy will happen and that wartime is an ideal moment to move ahead with repeal.
Clark said on ABC's "This Week" that with the military focused on war, "this is the ideal time to do this, because we're talking about building teamwork around a common purpose."
The former Democratic presidential hopeful said military leaders are ready to implement a repeal of the policy now, suggesting the prolonged political debate has become a distraction.
Clark said the message from military leaders is: "If you're going to make the decision, make the decision, get it over with and take us out of the middle of the game and give us six months or so to do the training and education and get ready so the leadership can handle this," he said.
An extensive Pentagon study released last week concluded the repeal of the policy would not have an adverse impact on military readiness and that the risk of repeal is minimal.

It sounds like Weasely has gone swishy on us. LOL!
I think that he always was...
What a leader.
What are the military-leaders thinking?
Weasley Clark is both a Traitor and a weanie Putz.
They can’t even be honest about this matter. If DADT is repealed, then soldiers can be forced to answer questions about their sexuality, and be promptly discharged if they admit to being homosexual. But then that is not what this whole thing is about. They aren’t really talking about ending DADT, but instead are talking about ending the ban against homosexuals in the military. I get sick and tired of hearing people blame DADT for a policy that has been in effect since FDR. DADT was one of the few things that Bill Clinton got right.
The point is that it is a distraction. Just like Women on subs.
Why choose this moment for a distraction?
We are fighting 2 wars.
I want midget commandos!
Its not fair that we dont have midget commandos!
This is such a load of BS

What an idiot! Wartime is not time for social engineering, it's time to build teamwork around conquering the enemy!
Ideal for him, and America’s enemies?
Indeed.
And introducing gays openly to the ranks is sure to sooth the brow of our radical Islamic adversary’s.
I am certain that it wont work them up or anything like that.
Blinking idiots.
Nice tagline
From the top down, inside, sideways, diagonally we have been infiltrated with those who seek to destroy us.
God help America.

Another moronic idea from a ring knocker !
