Joe Wilson actually said...

Well, it -- it works because people who are gay and lesbian can serve, but they are not to tell. That's -- that's what 'don't ask, don't tell' means. And you don't ask, you don't tell. And, so, I believe the system is working.

Context

Joe Wilson defends the 'don't ask, don't tell' policy, stating that it allows gay and lesbian individuals to serve in the military as long as they do not disclose their sexual orientation.
