If you read through the UCMJ there is alot going on there that stands to be modified/removed if they do succeed in deeming dadt unconstitutional.
I don't think anyone considered(or even cared to) the repercussions of setting this precident.

The UCMJ can and has been changed.
Article 125 is retarded anyway. The only time it's ever invoked is in conjunction with some other charge (like rape).
I don't see what the big deal is. Homosexuals have been serving in the military since the beginning of time.
Mission, not sexual orientation, is paramount.
I don't see an inherent reason why a homosexual service member is less able to accomplish an assigned mission than a heterosexual one.
I say get rid of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell".
