Obama Aide: Obama Committed to Ending Don't Ask, Don't Tell, But First He Has to Fix the Economy

That could take a while, no?

Gibbs on Wednesday expanded on his answer, saying, “There are many challenges facing our nation now and the president-elect is focused first and foremost on jump-starting this economy.

“So not everything will get done in the beginning but he’s committed to following through” with ending the policy against being openly gay in the military.

As Geraghty always says, all Obama statements and promises come with an expiration date. All of them.

PS: The One True Conservative in America, Andrew Sullivan, was, for reasons that escape me, invited with a panel of liberal columnists to meet Obama.

I hope that Don't Ask Don't Tell came up. But I doubt it. It's hard to ask political questions when you're furtively masturbating under your napkin.
