Robert Gibbs: White House Making No New Commitments To Gays Today

While those Don’t Ask Don’t Tell repeal advocates — including HRC, SU, SLDN, Center for American Progress, and OutServe — meet today at the White House, Press Sec. Robert Gibbs is fielding questions about what the Obama administration was going to put on the table to push through a repeal. Answer: Hmmmm, nothing? Especially, insists the White House, because the administration can’t speak to the attendees about the on-going litigation in Log Cabin Republicans v. U.S., since LCR’s chief R. Clarke Cooper will be there, and apparently that would be a conflict of interest. Update: Obama himself dropped by today’s meeting.
