NEWS ITEM:  U.S. District Court Judge Virginia Phillips orders an immediate injunction preventing the government from enforcing the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” (DADT) law that prohibits openly homosexual individuals from serving in the military.  The government asks for a stay pending an appeal.

Bringing a whole new meaning to military "readiness."

(Sung to the tune of “Tea for Two,” with apologies to Vincent Millie Youmans and Irving Caesar)

Picture now how it will be
You’re free to do and due to see.
The judge has said DADT
Is done.

We’re all in positions to make propositions
There aren’t many borders in milit’ry quarters.
Judge P thinks it’s fine now;
You can ogle my behind, now.

Day will break and we’ll awake
To hourly sensitiv’ty breaks
While disc’pline takes the furthest of back seats, ooh.

We will have a milit’ry
Well hailed for its diversity.
Who cares if we can beat the enemy?
