Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Michael Mullen: Mr. Chairman, speaking for myself and myself only, it is my personal belief that allowing gays and lesbians to serve openly would be the right thing to do. No matter how I look at this issue, I cannot escape being troubled by the fact that we have in place a policy that forces young men and women to lie about who they are in order to defend their fellow citizens.

(via thinkprogress1)

So much for the “argument” that our top brass think this policy is important for unit cohesion. Bigotry FAIL.
