Yes, I'm sure President Clinton meant well when he signed DADT into law, but in reality, it just made things worse for gays and lesbians who wanted to serve their country. Not to mention the fact that discharging all those servicemen cost the United States millions of dollars [between 363-400 million] and weakened our efforts in trying to stop more terrorist attacks, by discharging Arabic linguists.
I'm glad President Obama had the courage of his convictions to reverse this law and allow gays and lesbians to serve openly and proudly.
