In a November 18 editorial titled, “Barack's Brokeback barracks,” The Washington Times again baselessly fearmongered that "[m]ilitary personnel whose religious beliefs conflict with the LGBT agenda will find themselves no longer welcome in the military" if the “Don't Ask, Don't Tell” law is repealed.
From the Times' editorial:
The unchecked leaks conceal the larger problem with the working-group effort, which has focused not on whether the 1993 law regarding homosexuals in the military - usually called “Don't Ask, Don't Tell” - should be repealed, but how a repeal should be implemented. As sources in the military “listening sessions” have stated in letters to The Washington Times, working-group members have promoted the Obama administration's social revolution from the top down. Military personnel whose religious beliefs conflict with the LGBT agenda will find themselves no longer welcome in the military. Even if the 70 percent number were accurate, that would imply nearly a third of the troops would be on the unwanted list.
