John Mccain along with (it seems) the whole GOP believes that we should not lift the don't ask don't tell policy. The clip below, from infomania, is crude and not G rated (it appeared on cable TV but includes strong sexual reference and an excerpt from a piece of gay pornography). It does a good job of bringing up important points about the state of the don't ask don't tell policy.
I love the part where Brian says, "oh you're busy. I'll call you, no you call me." It sums up the dynamic of the relationship perfectly. These are people who are willing to die for our country (which I'm not sure if I would do) and we have the nerve to tell them that they aren't good enough unless they lie about themselves.
Brian also refutes the idea that if gays join the military there will be a sexualization of the battlefield. This statement has always confused me because aren't there women in the army. Beyond that, Brian says that it is ridiculous to think that people will join the army with the intention of 'sneeking a peak.'
I think that it is high time that we change this, even the joint chief of staff thinks so.
