Did Anybody Comment Here On The Non-Reaction Of The Military Brass......
(maybe they were the Joint Chiefs) when the President discussed the DADT repeal. There was a real nice reaction by the whole audience - but on CSPAN they closed in on the military brass sitting together and they all had a deadpan face and no applause or any other reaction.

I don't think I heard anyone comment on this here or on the reaction to the speech by the cable newspeople.

2. They never react to anything.
They're supposed to be apolitical and they try to keep up that image.
