That is not what o b  "has promised" the gays.   

Top generals buck White House on military gay ban.

WASHINGTON — Bucking the Pentagon's top leaders, the chiefs of the Army and Marines urged Congress on Friday not to allow openly gay people to serve in the military, at least not while troops are at war in Afghanistan.

The generals publicly rebutted their own bosses and the White House, arguing that it is too risky to change the policy now. That gave political ammunition to congressional Republicans trying to retain the ban known as "don't ask, don't tell."

"It's important that we're clear about the military risks," said Gen. George Casey, the Army's top officer. "Repeal of 'don't ask, don't tell' would be a major cultural and policy change in the middle of a war."

IMO, it sounds like an "early retirement" qualification has been met by these two generals.

You're probably right. These generals are on their way out. Not because they'e incompetent or stupid or undeserving. They are in fact competent, intelligent and deserving.

These days, that's enough to get you dismissed from the officer corps.

They'll be replaced by General Hate and General Discontent.   ;D

If this "openly gay" military policy ever comes into effect, I can see a rapid increase in tragic "friendly fire" deaths.
