Obama signing 'don't ask, don't tell' repeal

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama says valor and sacrifice in the armed forces are no longer defined by sexual orientation.
Obama spoke Wednesday morning at the Interior Department as he prepared to sign a landmark law ordering America's armed services to let homosexuals serve openly for the first time. Surrounded by senior military officials and members of Congress, Obama said he is proud to sign the bill, which he says will strengthen national security.
