Namo - I think they would have been prepared, but as you've pointed out, the media is going to respond to the one who puts themselves in front of the camera - and HRC's Joe has made it very clear that that's his priority.

So Choi's spotlight hunger trumped Solomonese. At least something good came out of it

So with Dan in a straitjacket in the Snake Pit getting his electroshock fix, who will be the Gay Talking Head after this afternoon's vote to repeal DADT?

Where is Margarethe Cammermeyer when you need her?

HA!

It is a little interesting that it looks like Dan will be 'unavailable for comment' when this reaches its denouement.

THAT is the true nature of a nervous breakdown. I am imagining this will be an enormous set back in his recovery and that is why I bet he'll be pitching a reality show upon release.

I think Harry Reid's tweet was mean for you, Namo:

Lt. Dan Choi was just on MSNBC.

I wonder how these past weeks will impact his desire to re-enlist?

So did he leave his hospitalization against medical advice?

Rachel Maddow tweeted this:

maddow Rachel Maddow MSNBC
Mon night Rachel Maddow Show will feature servicemembers who fought for #DADT repeal. Will they now rejoin? Monday 9pm ET MSNBC.

He still has Monday.

He's apparently issued a press release saying he'll re-enlist (re-re-enlist?) Monday. Wouldn't it be funny if the military turned him down due to his history of mental illness?

But will this be enough to get him on season 2 of The A-List?

I want hear him call someone a bleeding p*ssy again!

Did you catch the charming bit in his Huffington Post piece yesterday where he chided McCain for his "calcified retardation"? That Voice article about him says we're supposed to think, "That Dan! He's so not PC!!!!" I'm just not comfortable with him making fun of developmental disabilities.

But he's just keepin' it real! It's the best blanket excuse for having no tact.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Is he out of the booby hatch yet?

[JustAGuy]

Posted: 12/20/10 at 5:04pm

Yup...he's out and not bothered at all that he hasn't been invited to the signing ceremony..not a bit...nope..not bothered in the least. As a matter of fact he's so not bothered that he tweated about how not bothered he is.

Maybe they do not want any more mentally unstable folks near the POTUS than necessary?

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Posted: 12/20/10 at 5:17pm

Wow. I didn't think that people got out that fast when they were committed by someone else. It certainly wasn't that easy for poor Kay in the The Group!

Victor was invited . . .

Choi has been inviting to the signing ceremony.

I wonder if Dan will stand next to Reid . . .

[FindingNamo]

Posted: 12/20/10 at 8:13pm

I don't know who Victor is but I want to go to there.

[Q]

Posted: 12/20/10 at 8:43pm

Oh, Namo, you really MUST meet . . .
Victor.

I saw them on Maddow. I have so very little in common with those people. I forget that not all gay and lesbian veterans are like the ones I have in my life.

LOL! My nephew worked with him at Mountain Home - he's a good guy.
