I had a chat with Ana Marie Cox the other day. We spent a lot of time on “don’t ask, don’t tell.” I have mixed feelings on the topic, but would prefer a loosening of the current regime of the sort floated by Bob Gates of tamping down on investigations based on third-party information. On another front, we agree on the worthlessness of that Daily Kos poll that got so much attention a week or ago supposedly exposing the extremism of Republicans. You can watch the whole thing here.
