PHall:  What does the repeal of DADT have to do with this specific issue?

He's implying that clergy in general and the Catholic priesthood in particular are homosexual.
Or perhaps that repealing DADT has created an unattractive environment in which a person who believes homosexuality is a sin would have to work? Thereby making it that much more difficult to recruit both locally AND from the top down of a religious organization with those beliefs.
Not that I do or do not believe this myself.... just saying his comment may have been a LITTLE less sinister than what you were thinking. :)

You can always depend on some folks here seeing shadows that don't exist. ;)

When DADT was in the process of being repealed there was a number of military chaplains who said that they could not continue to serve the military  because the repeal of DADT went against their beliefs and the beliefs of their denomination.
