Not to be a pedant or anything but we do have gays in the military. Lots of 'em. They just can't admit it in public.If Barry Goldwater had been elected we'd already have gays in the military. What an ironically sad day for progressives whenever he lost.

(recall, he was against federal civil rights and voting rights legislation in the 1960s).
Goldwater's record on civil rights was consistent though. He supported the civil rights acts that applied to the federal government. Goldwater was primarily opposed to the civil rights acts the he felt unconstitutionally curtailed the prerogative of the states.
Been saying the same for years. Resurrect Barry Goldwater.
