| 1. Absolutely not. He was always against DADT. |
|
He was one of those who voted against it when it was passed, I think.

| 2. No. He was always a strong supporter of LGBT rights, DADT being repealed being one of them. |

We may hate him for all other politics and his dirty dealing with the Repubs, in bed with the Big Pharma; but on this---he's a good guy.

| 3. Lieberman has been awful on a lot of issues |
|
DADT was, surprisingly, not one of them. One of the few times he didn't go along with his BFF John McCain.

| 5. No. As loathsome as Lieberman might be in some ways, |
|
he has long been good on LGBT issues.

It's one of the few reasons he remained a Democrat, if you ask me.

| 12. Repeal was pushed through the Senate by Reid and Lieberman |
|
wouldn't have happened without Joe Lieberman.
