Gay military rights advocate Lt. Dan Choi Back on Active Duty
"Gay military rights advocate Lt. Dan Choi has been reportedly called back into active duty. Photographer Jeff Sheng, who recently turned his lens on active gay and lesbian service members, confirmed the news in a blog posting on Bilerico.com.

Choi was to appear at the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force's Creating Change conference but could not attend due to his being called to serve."

9. you should sue for malpractice

and if you masturbate during therapy you can add professional misconduct with the grounds of a mental health professional having sex with his/her patient.

It would be a slam dunk, worth millions. Hope you have malpractice insurance!

6. too bad that
Obama isn't going to get any credit for it. It'll be derided as "tokenism." Nothing he could do would please the GLBT community.
