A bit o' wit

Here's a chuckle.

Tonight President Obama makes a major speech to the gay community at the Human Rights Campaign dinner in D.C. Many are hoping that he will announce, or at least reaffirm, his commitment to ending Don't Ask, Don't Tell.

Bill Maher says:

"Forget all the good arguments for repeal, like, because it's the right thing to do, or because it was promised in the campaign," Maher said. Instead:

"Do it because it will make Rush Limbaugh explode like a bag full of meat dropped from a helicopter," he said. "Do it because it will make Sarah Palin go rogue in her pants."

For whatever reasons, just do it !!!

It's way, way past time. If Truman could order the Army to desegregate, then surely Obama can end DA/DT. Yes, Congress will need to repeal the actual law; but, with the stroke of a pen, the Commander in Chief could at least tell them to stop processing discharges of valuable service men and women until it can be repealed.

Just do it, Obama. You've "Got the Whole World in Your Hands."
