18. Obama is still calling for an end to DADT.
It'll take an act of congress, and Obama will be happy to sign the bill when it crosses the desk.

What a repeal of DADT? Call your congressman.

As for military tribunals, Obama has completely reversed the policies which Bush enacted that made those tribunals so criminal in the first place. Are there still tribunals? Sure, and there always have been. But now they're being run properly and in full accordance with the Geneva Conventions.

If you want to find some way to attack Obama, find a criticism that's actually honest.
