"No one starts a war; or rather, no one in his senses ought to do so; without first being clear in his mind what he intends to achieve by that war and how he intends to conduct it." - Carl Philipp Gottfried von Clausewitz
Another thing to note is that, prior to the repeal, when the Army and Marines neede more man power, they relaxed their standards on criminal records and education, so a repeal of Don't ask Don't Tell is probably safer when you consider eventually these soldiers will come home.
