In fact it has been challenged multiple times coming at it from a different angle each time and has yet to be shot down. IIf I am not mistaken...most recently some lower court judge ruled against DADT from the angle of attack that was presented...so it will probably go back to the Supreme Court and who knows what the Supreme Court will say. I suspect that at some point in time a challenge will present the correct wording and it will be shot down.
