I want to hear anyone say if they had a college daughter, they'd want her
going to the air force academy, giving all that has been reported about what
has gone on, and how callous and sexist the military leadership is there. 
Even people I know who are military veterans don't deny that the military is
sexist and homophobic.  I think "don't ask, don't tell" is a bad policy
regarding gays in the military.  This is a policy Clinton reluctantly signed
off on when the military pitched a hissy fit over his campaign promise to make
it legal for openly gay people to serve in the military.  "Don't ask, don't
tell" is a disgrace IMO, it is simply the military being allowed to
discriminate as they always have.  So a gay solder must stay in the closet
for the length of his or her military service, while straight soldiers and
other military can flaunt their sexuality blatantly (see Tailhook)
