WEST POINT, N.Y. (AP) -- Vice President Joe Biden told the U.S. Military Academy's class of 2016 on Saturday that greater diversity, including more women and openly gay soldiers, will strengthen the country's armed forces.

"Having men and women together in the battlefield is an incredible asset, particularly when they're asked to lead teams in parts of the world with fundamentally different expectations and norms," Biden said in his speech at a graduation ceremony at Michie Stadium on the West Point grounds along the Hudson River.

**BIDEN: DIVERSE MILITARY OF WOMEN, GAYS STRENGTHENS US FORCES**

You’ve got it backward Joe.

The headline should be:

BIDEN: DIVERSE MILITARY OF WOMEN, GAYS WEAKENS US FORCES

Because, everybody knows that “The 300” would have survived if only they had gays and women fighting along with them.

He’s right you know.In most parts of the world women are considered chattel, and property.
No self respecting male would accept orders from, or follow orders given by a “MERE WOMAN”.
It’s only in the most civilized countries of the Americas (that excludes everything south of the US/Mexico border) that women are treated as fellow human beings.
On the Eurasian and African continents women are still considered primarily as trade goods, slaves, and property.
Same applies to fags and lesbos; unless they are being kept as sex slaves they are just killed out of hand, in a lot of countries it is legal.
Most countries of Western Europe (only) treat their women and fags as equals, the rest of the world, NOT SO MUCH.

Biden is a complete tool and puppet of the administration.

If they asked him to pi$$ on the Queen he would do so without hesitation.

The mentally challenged always make excellent tools and puppets.

West Point is a very demanding program. The cadets study hard and work their tails off for 4 years to graduate...and then they get punished by having Biden as the commencement speaker? I guess it could be worse—they could have gotten Obama or Michelle.

Nothing quite says “unit cohesion” like a bunch of fudgepackers cavorting in the barracks!

To be clear, I was referencing Idiot Joe’s words saying; “parts of the world with fundamentally different expectations and norms”.

BS. I spent many years in the ranks and homosexuals were always an object of derision. Had there been trannies back then, they too would have been objects of derision. Your basic grunt has no use for sexual deviants other than to make fun of them. And the idea of them being in the ranks was considered to be abhorrent. Creepy Uncle Joe is totally clueless on the matter.

Slo Joe isn’t Sharia compliant with women and homo’s in the military. This is a “recruitment tool” for jihadis. Kinda worse than Gitmo, Abu Gharb, and water boarding, no?

It makes perfect sense once you realize that winning wars is simply not on the agenda.

The "war aim" is to keep war going on indefinitely, here there wherever.

A profitable enterprise for the connected, and it justifies less freedom at home.

You make an excellent point!

Now the mudslimes will hate us even more!

Typical liberal policy outcome.

Maybe our queers and women will be a distraction on the battlefield as the Russians and Chinese may try rape over killing our soldiers. Kind of like a delaying tactic?

Put all these weirdos in the minesweeper Division where everyone is three ranks higher than they would be if the leadership was not a bunch of fairydiddles. Run the whole lot of them out in front of the fighting men to explode mines, IED’s, etc. Free a man to fight,

Can’t win a war, but at least the curtains will match the upholstery in the barracks.

Everything democrats do is in direct opposition to morality, civility, security and common sense. I hope the Trump PR team will get busy early and publicize the destructive 'transformation' libs are planning for America and the drive it home 24/7.

Since so few in congress have the nerve to even confront a lie told by the liberals or their media, maybe ... JUST MAYBE, Trump will choose to get out there first and pound the nation with the truth.

Can Biden explain this? Other than just rephrasing it?

Like TELL me - How do illegals help everyday Americans.

How?
