WASHINGTON – A Pentagon spokeswoman says recruiters have been told that they must accept gay applicants, following a federal court decision striking down the ban on gays serving openly in the military. Spokeswoman Cynthia Smith said Tuesday that top-level guidance has been issued to recruiting commands informing them that the military's "don't ask, don't tell" rule has been suspended for now. Recruiters also have been told to inform potential recruits that the moratorium could be reversed at any point. Last week, a federal judge ordered the military to stop enforcing the 1993 law banning openly gay service members. The Justice Department is appealing the decision and has asked for a temporary stay.

Which one is weasel?
You are such a coward Yukon. You just don't have any balls. Just lip, and I would say you have four of them.
You are delusional, shit-for-brains.
And you never do anything but whine. And you do it because you are a coward, and would never walk up to anyone you give shit to to their face nice and in person like.
I stated a fact, shit-for-brains. Did you attend school in the United States? Special needs?
Did your mother have any kids that lived?
Did your mother have any kids that lived? All of them intelligent, hard working and productive.

Corn Flake Girl will threaten to sue you soon. It's how he survives.
Except you. You refuse civility online, and if we meet, you will reap what you sow.
