Romney Backs Don't Ask Don't Tell

He says this:

" 'Don't ask, don't tell' has worked well"

By what fuzzy-headed standard can you make this claim, Mitt?


Haven't you heard of the military's shortage of Arabic and Farsi translators? And this fact (from SLDN):

According to the Government Accountability Office, the Pentagon has dismissed more than 300 language experts under “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” including more than 55 who were fluent in Arabic.
If you're going to pander to the religious right, try to do it a bit more artfully than this.
