"Don't Ask, Don't Tell" Still Supported

I have been really encouraged since Obama has been in office by his progressive, thoughtful policies dealing with women's issues. However, this recent decision shows that even progressive leaders can buckle under society's homophobic pressure, "The Supreme Court on Monday turned down a challenge to the Pentagon policy forbidding gays and lesbians from serving openly in the military, granting an Obama administration request to maintain the Clinton-era "don't ask, don't tell" directive."
