Gates is an immoral fool, and a lousy Defense Secretary. He isn't one tenth the man Rumsfeld was.

The rats know that this may be last chance to repeal DADT...

[RightFighter]

The obvious conclusion here is that Gates plays for the other team. (take that with whichever interpretation you want to)

[SandRat]

NO Gates don’t do it!!!!!!

[Clock King]

LOL!

What really worries me is who Hussein is going to put in to bat next.

Who is going to be confirmable and willing to take on Hussein’s withdrawl and abandonment strategery in Afghanistan??

Trouble brewing...

His bio says he "joined the Central Intelligence Agency in 1966" and "in 1967 he was commissioned a second lieutenant in the U.S. Air Force..." Something there doesn't compute, unless the AF commission was merely a foil. In any event, he never really served in the trenches.

Gates is a fool who needs to go. The military is held to a high standard. We need leaders who know the difference between right and wrong.

This would be a good time for a little mutiny from our troops.

Gates is a despicable traitor. He shames the great conservative university where he once was Chancellor (Texas A&M.)
