You don’t get to full colonel overnight, so she’s been violating the UCMJ for over 20 years, right?

She has been in for 26 years. That means see entered service circa 1986...long before DADT. So, that means she lied to gain entrance into the military. Plus, even with the advent of DADT, you were still not allowed to engage in homosexual activity...which apparently she did. So, she was in violation of the law then also. Dishonerably behavior should NOT be rewarded by general officer rank. For that matter, military service. She DOES NOT exeplify the “Army Values” and has brought disgrace to the Army and country. She should be stripped of her commission and removed from service...not made a General Officer. This is a shameful matter, but no one in uniform dare publically say so.
I can hear you thinking this is only because of Obama, but Romney has made no promises to change anything. He is actually AWOL on the issue...like he was on the Chick-Fil-A issue. Romney as POTUS will not correct this horrid situation.
