Gay soldiers can now hold hands out in the open for the Taliban and everyone to see.

Civilian/Miliary pride at its best. The repeal is just lovely, don't you think?

According to the New York Times, the Senate vote was 65 to 31 in favor of the repeal. The law dates back 17 years to when a Democrat president, Bill Clinton, ordered "don't ask,m don't tell" into law.

Let's be careful, then, not to cast this as a law borne of GOP bias.

We wonder, will the new found freedoms of man/man romance be a problem?

Depends on whether they act out their love making as they do in gay parades around the country or keep it behind closed doors as do heterosexuals in the military.

Hopefully we will not be seeing advertisement such as this:

Michael Lucas is now offering a gay Israel tour ($2800 airfare)that includes a visit to a military base to meet hot soldiers

I'm a 43-year-old gay male and I've never had anal or oral sex.

I'm going to be providing coffee, donuts and other comforts to 100 active firefighters tomorrow morning

These and other tidbits can be found in heterophobic social networking publication. We assume that with the end of DADT, this kind of "networking" will be allowed in military publications and THAT is this editor's objection to all this talk of gays in the military.

I know this will sound a little over the top, but I think that "love making" is just plain "lust" when a couple is finished and has to clean up using antiseptic. Just sayin'.
