An Air America reporter, Ana Marie Cox, asked White House Spokesman Robert Gibbs a very pointed question yesterday: “Is their [Choi, Fehrenbach] dismissal a part of his national security strategy, or is their dismissal itself a threat to national security?” The best part is when Gibbs lies to her face and says that Obama is working with the Secretary of Defense and the Joint Chiefs on repealing Don’t Ask Don’t Tell. Just yesterday, pentagon spokesman Geoff Morrell said that A) there are no plans to end DADT, and B) there are no ongoing studies related to it.
As I said yesterday, Obama and his team are forgetting his promises, and seem to have no intention of taking action on DADT at all.
