From a May 25 column by Cliff Kincaid of the group Accuracy in Media:
Corporal Klinger and the Barney Frank Brigade
The MASH television spectacle of Corporal Klinger wearing women's dresses to get out of the military may now give way to the Pentagon actually permitting transgendered male soldiers to openly wear women's military uniforms. This is what repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," could mean.
While some might scoff at the idea of transgendered soldiers ever serving in the Armed Forces, the transgendered are an essential component of the so-called LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered) community pushing repeal of the military's homosexual exclusion policy.

That burns. Just because a person is gay does not mean they have aids. The test isn't that hard to get. Saying DADT repeal will threaten the lives of people due to aids seems a bit far reaching. I am not saying that it can't happen but plenty of straight people have it too and I don't know if ex-drug addicts are ineligible or not.
