Obama Administration Requests Stay on DADT Injunction

There's a shocker. They want to continue the witch hunts and persecutions while they are appealing:

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.

At a town hall meeting with young voters, a woman pressed Obama on why he wasn't ending the policy immediately.

"This is not a situation where with a stroke of a pen I can end the policy," he said and noted that he cannot ignore laws on the books. "This policy will end and it will end on my watch."

This is a lie. Obama, with a stroke of a pen, could end the separations, and if Congress passes something (ha!) then it is his pen that will sign the bill.

When we look at Obama, one has to wonder whether he, or those people closest to him, like Valerie "gay is a lifestyle choice" Jarrett say about gays when they are having their private moments.

I'm beginning to think that the policy here is to find a path to do the least possible without fatally alienating the party.

If Obama were a Republican, we would be talking about his homophobia right now.
