Wait till he gets to the Pentagon, he will promote only like minded officers. That has been the goal of ending DADT. When you control all of the fire power who needs Congress are even elections

The Obama destruction of the economy may be fixable over a few years. But his supreme court appointments, and this absurd proposal to mainstream weird sexual behavior, are much more malignant...
