The Log Cabin Republicans, a conservative gay rights group, pointed out in a fundraising email Monday that negative effects of an immediate repeal theorized by Obama administration officials have not taken place since last week’s suspension of the policy.
“After nearly a week without ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ those enormous consequences haven’t materialized,” the email reads. “The U.S. military remains the most powerful armed force in the world, and all signs point to it being even stronger when ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ finds its place on the ash heap of history.
The Log Cabin Republicans were the plaintiffs in the recent suit that resulted in the suspension of the policy.
