An interesting article today discussed the travails faced by gay and lesbian cadets at West Point. What with the continuing farce that is "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," all cadets must sign a pledge "acknowledging that revealing one's homosexuality can lead to discharge [snort!], as can 'demonstrating a propensity to engage in homosexual acts.'"
We're glad they clarified that last point. Otherwise, cadets could always adopt the Roy Cohn defense: "I'm not gay! I just like to fuck around with guys" (see Angels in America; no, really, see it).
