Those crushes could cost them their lives on the field, cause there's almost a 100% chance that they get distracted by that one person for a second, which could be fatal.

It's not about that. Straight soldiers are allowed to speak openly about their relationships that they have waiting for them at home when/if they return. They're allowed to have pictures, write letters, speak about them freely, etc.
If "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" is going to be a law that is upheld, then these straight soldiers should be silenced also. It isn't equal or fair treatment and is completely disrespectful for soldiers who put their lives on the line for our country.
I don't see why people scream EXPLOITATION when she's just speaking against something that she feels strongly about, there's nothing wrong with that. She's a human being with free speech. The
only reason people use the weak exploitation excuse is because of her celebrity status.
The ignorance of people here.

Shut up, we all know you hate GaGa to every fiber of her being, so go somewhere else
. I see that nickname "Gag" by the way.
