68. Again... Obama could suspend dismissals by executive order, pending the "P"
10 USC 654 allows the CiC, via the Sec of Defense, to determine the methods of investigations preliminary to dismissals. Obama could simply suspend the investigations pending Congressional Review of a bill in debate on the floor.

Then the "P" could take all the time it wanted, and no one would be dismissed under DADT in the meantime.

Just saying... it's not like he can't do anything while Congress is "busy" with things that are more important to those who aren't being legally fired from their highly trained jobs just for admitting to who they are...
