Cognitive Dissonance


Vs.

"The Obama administration on Thursday asked a judge to allow the Pentagon to keep its ban against openly gay men and women in the military while it appeals her decision that ruled the "don't ask, don't tell" policy was unconstitutional.



President Barack Obama, Defense Secretary Robert Gates and military leaders have backed ending the policy, but have urged that it be done by the U.S. Congress and military so that there is no disruption to military operations, morale or recruiting."

Basically, the administration's "plan" for ending Don't Ask/Don't Tell is for a magical study to be completed sometime in the near future, followed by a vote to repeal in the Senate.  The completely dysfunctional Senate.  Let that sink in.  Obama could appoint Jesus Christ to the Supreme Court and Jim DeMint would filibuster because of the appointee's questionable ties to Samaritans.  What do you think would happen to a vote on allowing gays to serve openly in the military?  Do you think the White House will fight for it?  Do you think John McCain will come around?  Will it start raining unicorns in Dallas?  Either the Supreme Court will declare the law unconstitutional or it will continue in place.
