Jeff Cleghorn, a retired Army major and former attorney with the Servicemembers Legal Defense Network, states the obvious. Those who sued the government to block military recruitment on college campuses, even while dining at the federal trough, were "driven more by an anti-military animus than by a genuine desire to help lift the ban."
But the whole, woeful, counter-productive effort, ending in a
unanimous Supreme Court repudiation, received scant criticism while
it was underway and, instead, got the full rah-rah treatment from
most gay media.
