Doug Lamborn said above that "There are too many unanswered medical, housing, readiness and deployment questions."  That's exactly the same argument we heard 150 years ago when black soldiers wanted to fight.  It's the same argument they used against female soldiers 100 years ago.  It's the same argument we heard against gay soldiers 17 years ago.  It's old, it's tired and it's wrong.  I wish I was surprised by this obtuse, witless line of reasoning but Mr. Lamborn is a Colorado Springs republican and frankly I'm not.
