Fighting the Taliban in Pink Boxers

One of the things I find most peculiar of late about those on the right who are obsessed (and I don't use the word lightly, you know the type) with all things gay is their contention that if DADT is ended, suddenly the barracks is going to be filled with people prancing around in boas. Now of course a logical person would realize that there already dozens of formal and informal ways of dealing with disruptive behavior in the military, and scrapping DADT has nothing to do with those - but these people aren't logical, and they are, apparently, gripped by a terrible fear of boas and similar articles of clothing.

I'd love to see the reaction of those people to this story. Are they aghast that young American warriors are wearing pink boxers? Do they think it's a sign that the Rapture is nigh? Whatever their supporting reaction might be, kudos to Secretary Gates for praising this young man.
