With the buzz of the repeal of the 'Don't Ask Don't Tell' policy, the latest controversy has surfaced surrounding Reserve Officers' Training Corps member Sara Isaacson. Isaacson, a student at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, came out as a lesbian, and now may have to pay back the $80,000 of tuition that was paid for by ROTC.
Watch the shocking video clip to see Megyn Kelly on the 'O'Reilly Factor' completely grill Isaacson's decision to publicly declare her sexuality despite the 'Don't Ask Don't Tell' policy.
