Gibbs said, "I will say this -- all things that the President made commitments on and is focused on doing.  We have a process underway with the Pentagon to make changes, as the President outlined in the campaign and, quite frankly, even before the campaign, in "don't ask, don't tell" as somebody running for the U.S. Senate in 2004.  We have a process to make good on overturning "don't ask, don't tell."

Gibbs was not specific on what "the process" involves, nor did reporters press him on that issue.
