Mullen reads from Gates playbook on DADT repeal

Hmm, sounds like the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Adm. Mike Mullen cracked the hymnbook of his civilian boss, Secretary of Defense Robert Gates. That’s because because Mullen said, like Gates several weeks ago, that President Barack Obama has too much on his hands to get rid of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell .

Well, hell. Obama could get involved in wars all the time as a dodge, per Mullen’s reasoning.

Or, he could do like toady press secretary Robert Gibbs said last week, and do what Obama does on any matter requiring leadership — punt to Congress.
