Can you help but be suspicious about this one?
Take the Money and Run?
So, how long have we had "Don't Ask--Don't Tell"? It was initiated by the Clinton administration in 1993. That is seventeen years ago. That means that if Widdle Sara is about to graduate from college it has been a well established policy since she was four or five years old. She knew very well about it.
She has been post-pubescent for roughly eight or nine years, so she probably has a pretty good idea about which direction her libido leans. That would mean that when she applied for, qualified and accepted the full four year scholarship through Army ROTC she knew the conditions of the agreement. She even knew the part in the fine print which explains that if the recipient doesn't fulfill their service obligation they are obliged to refund the money spent on their behalf.
Isn't it fascinating that she suddenly comes up with this uncontrollable display of "integrity" which requires her, despite being counseled that she would not be asked about her orientation nor should she tell, to blurt out her position.
Where was her integrity four years ago when the first check arrived in the mail?
It would be enlightening to know whether there might be some relationship to that ambition to become an Army doctor. Do you suspect that maybe she didn't get accepted for the military's graduate program in medicine? Is it possible she wasn't on the fast track to become the female Nidal Hasan of the next decade? Maybe she was now being told that she would be line of the Army, a potential supply officer in a combat brigade? Maybe there was a ticket to the Sandbox with a departure date of a year from now in her mailbox?
Clearly it isn't a question of her integrity which has not been displayed other than through its lack.
