This is one reason why Obama ought to have got off his arse and suspended this obnoxious compromise with bigots. Every employer owes a duty of care: obviously in te US military that only extends to straights!

He could do a lot by simple fiat, and allow changes to become embedded in the military and change attitudes. As it is he's six months into it and the shine is coming off. If he doesn't make cheanges now he never will: if he doesn't make changes now he could well be a one-termer, setting LGBT rights back even further as a Republican president could well be more of a religious nut than Bush

I would of thought these charges go against Dan Choi's first amendment right to freedom of speech and expression. I hope he sues the government. And what is Obama doing looking the other way why this is going on. Yesterday Obama was having lunch with LGBT leaders and today he is stabbing them all in the back.
