President Obama Writes Personal Letter to a Gay Soldier




Obama just wrote a hand written letter to a gay soldier, Sandy Tsao, based out of St Louis, MO, who broke the “Don’t tell, Don’t ask” law when she told her superiors she was gay:

In the letter, Obama wrote that he is “committed to changing our current policy” but that “it will take some time to complete (partly because it needs Congressional action).” Yesterday, Rep. Joe Sestak (D-PA), who has sponsored legislation repealing DADT, discussed the issue with Rachel Maddow, saying, “I’d like to see us move it by this summer, and I think we can.”
