Obama Administration Having “Active Conversations” About Reversing Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell Gays in the Military Policy

Contradicting a Pentagon release earlier in the week that there were no plans to end the DNDT policy of homosexuals in the military, now according to Presidential spokesman Robert Gibbs there are “active conversations.

Check out the wee glimmer of a change in the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” saga, buried in Thursday’s press conference by Obama mouthpiece Robert Gibbs. The last we heard, the Obama Administration was moving quietly to limit enforcement of the policy — but it wasn’t in any rush to change the policy. And, as Comrade Lochhead told us earlier this month, it looked like momentum to change DNDT was waning. Now? Judging what was said Thursday, sounds like plans are moving along faster than previously disclosed, albeit on the down low.

Whatever that means?

Why doesn’t Obama keep his promises to the homosexual community and OK gays in the military? Why is there reluctance?

Could it be that it might hurt recruitment of soldiers?

Or is he just a typical POL and hopes a court somewhere gives him a political out to a policy change that will alienate some voters?
