A reader writes:

Rep. Duncan Hunter of California, a Marine Corps veteran, just took to the airwaves in defense of DADT. It was a subtle piece of performance art. Hunter spent five minutes on NPR trying to articulate a single solid reason to maintain the status quo. He failed. If this is the best its defenders can muster, then repeal is a fait accompli. Take a listen.

As for Chambliss' dire warning that ending DADT would facilitate "body art" in the military, what planet is he from? Many soldiers have tats. Some of them quite famous ones.
