Finally, a good idea for expanding the military

Expanding our military is not the only reason to do away with Don't Ask, Don't Tell - we should also get rid of it because it is the right thing to do. It is about time the US accepted reality and followed the lead taken by our allies (Britain and Israel especially) and support (in the open) all members of the military. To keep Don't Ask, Don't Tell going, the US would simply be insisting that certain rules and laws exist in order to float an old version of democracy and individual rights whose policies really conflict with just about everything America stands for.

And while we are on the topic, lets hope Mass does not ban a basic right that they agreed to provide.
