If you support Don't-Ask-Don't-Tell you are Aiding and Abetting
This isn't rocket science, but I've never seen it mentioned in the discussions I've read about don't-ask-don't-tell.

- People in the military routinely get security clearances and deal with top-secret information
- Even with DADT, if you are outed by someone else, you're kicked out (or did this actually change recently?)

So if a spy figures out that someone with a clearance is gay, they'll have amazing leverage to try and blackmail them into turning against their country.

Bottom line: if you want to help the enemies of our country, continue to support DADT!
