DADT - Could it be the most public part of the battle is yet to come?

It's hard to know what is going to happen this winter, but I get a sense that the Right are developing new "memes" to propagate.

Anyway, forearmed and all that, at least on the old stuff. Elliot Spitzer didn't know about anti-gay violence in the military (including Allen Schindler, Jr.?) or the context for responding to it, so here, from the Palm Center:

Myth #1: Gays will suddenly out themselves

Myth #2: "Don't ask, don't tell" is cost-free.

Myth #3: The troops care about "don't ask, don't tell."

Myth #4: The troops need to be taught how to interact with gays.

Myth #5: Repeal will increase anti-gay violence.
