  8. DADT made it possible to segue if you will to where we are today. Was it perfect? No not even. Hopefully the gay issue will become a non issue soon. There are more important things to worry about than who sleeps with whom. In the 30 plus years I served I can not recall any incidents involving sexual misconduct involving gay soldiers. I was witness to several witch hunts where soldiers were accused of being gay and then being forced out. It was wrong and I hope that society as a whole will eventually move beyond this.

  14. If the book is false she should sue for libel. However if the allegations are true I wish she would slink off the stage. There is nothing that pisses me off more than some one who puts them self out there as a "leader of moral and ethical behavior" who turns out to be neither, ala Newt Gingrich. (Don't get me going on that piece of crap..)
