Back when Senator John McCain was a straight talker, he said that if military leadership ever told him that repealing "don't ask, don't tell" would be in the best interest of the forces, then he would change his views on the matter. That was then and this is now. McCain has joined in lockstep with his Republican colleagues. Republicans are now revealing that they don't care what's good for the military, or about known facts regarding don't ask, don't tell and its effect on military cohesion and performance. They cares about one thing and one thing only: prejudice. And when it comes to prejudice, all they want is more.
