Judge Orders Injunction Against Don't Ask, Don't Tell (DADT)

Terrific news.  She bans the military from continuing investigations or enforcing DADT:

"In language much like that in her Sept. 9 ruling declaring the law unconstitutional, Judge Phillips wrote that the 17-year-old policy “infringes the fundamental rights of United States service members and prospective service members” and violates their rights of due process and freedom of speech."

Exactly so.  The state should not be able to discriminate against a legal class of citizens.
