Heard the Word of Blog?

OK, I have tons more respect for John Stossel now. He's doing a "Gimme A Break" about the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy and how it's keeping willing soldiers out of the Armed Forces while others who are done with their hitches are kept on beyond their time by the "backdoor draft." Very cool.

Ever heard of Alexander The Great? Ever heard of Lawrence of Arabia? There have been great military minds throughout history who have been gay or bisexual, and they have never had any problems maintaining "morale and group cohesion." Ever heard of the Spartans, a civilization known for both their military might and their...um...gaiety?

Sometimes Stossel seems like he's gone to the Right of his avowed Libertarian roots. This time, he really did represent for freedom. Rock on, John.
