Our favorite moron in the DADT discussion, Dan Choi, wote in the Huffington Post <\/a>on Saturday;<\/p>\n

I intend to rejoin the military and serve in any capacity I can be of best use. I intend to marry and have a family of my own. We are living in a truly historic moment where we can enjoy the rewards of our efforts. We stand on the shoulders of many who have come before us, from Air Force Technical Sergeant Leonard Matlovich to our present day heroes. We owe it to them to continue fighting. Our loudness does not distract but enhances the fight. Our direct action puts wind in the sails of lobbyists and political elites who do our bidding on the inside. We are one team with one goal: Equality in our lifetime. I do not intend to waver or retreat in pursuit of this new life purpose and mission, and neither should any American who loves justice.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, we don’t want you, Dan. Not because of what you put in who, but because you have no idea what military service is. You can’t behave like an officer – no officer I ever followed was ever chained to the White House fence. No officer I know was ever tempted to make demands of the President;<\/p>\n

President Obama, you are not off the hook. The compromise bill passed today puts the moral imperative squarely on your desk. Sign an executive order instituting a full non-discrimination policy throughout the military. If you do not, if you drag your feet and politicize this with your theoretical calculations as you have these past two years, you will be guilty of abetting those who loudly proclaim homophobia from their platforms and pulpits. Provide them no shelter or safe haven. Institute justice now.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There’s no place for your antics in the military. You’re in the place you need to be now…among the civilian social justice warriors who bark at the moon making impossible demands like erasing some imagined bigotry. Dan Choi, if you think you were mistreated before wait until you meet your next platoon sergeant. And it will have nothing to do with your sexual orientation and everything to do with the fact that you have no leadership traits. It will have everything to do with the importance that you place on what’s in your pants rather than what’s in your head.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
