Administration asks court to reconsider 'don't ask, don't tell' order

From Bill Mears, CNN Supreme Court Producer
July 15, 2011 -- Updated 0145 GMT (0945 HKT)

Washington (CNN) -- The Obama administration Thursday evening asked a federal appeals court in California to reconsider its order last week temporarily blocking the U.S. military from enforcing its "don't ask, don't tell" policy on gays and lesbians serving in the military.
U.S. officials have been moving ahead with dismantling the policy but had objected to having the courts force the government to officially repeal it at this time.


further down:


Log Cabin Republicans slammed the administration's newest court action. "This latest maneuver by the President continues a pattern of doublespeak that all Americans should find troubling. All this does is further confuse the situation for our men and women in uniform," said R. Clarke Cooper, the group's executive director, who is also a captain in the Army Reserve.

"'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' is an offense to American values that should have been gone long ago. It is shameful that a president who has taken credit for opposing the policy is taking extreme measures to keep it on life support."

Obama made it very clear today he is not into cutting anything.

The U.S. has lost its identity of independence and equality to reliance and entitlement. The pursuit of happiness should in no way be subsidized.

He hasn't a clue. Who builds, flies, maintains and manages corporate jets?

Billionaires? Didn't think so!

As I said, it's apparent that you didn't watch it. Or else, your understanding of verbal discussion is as inventive as your reading comprehension.

You can watch it on CSpan.org.

So which package do you like better: Obama's $4 trillion in cuts, or the $2 trillion in cuts?
