Merry Christmas

As sure as I am that there will be problems, I’m even more certain that we won’t hear about them. No Pentagon stats will be released, or even compiled. Any reported incidents will have any mention of homosexuality washed out.

If you wanna have the benefit of being one of those "Protected Class" members (you get benfits and have the Right to claim discrimination), I suggest we all specify that we are "gay", and get it on the record.

Heterosexual White Christians have no protections whatsoever that SPECIFIES they are to be afforded ANYTHING, so maybe it's time we all became "gay" (on paper)?

1/2 /s

Under Obamacare, we can also claim that being a "sex deviate" is a pre-existing condition? LOL

We are now moving into the Greek and Roman Empire-like collapse phase of our Country.

It is already against the rules, that was the whole point of don't ask, don't tell. Clinton didn't have the guts to make it legit to serve openly gay, so he created this policy which means the rules won't be enforced as long as you lay low. In other words, we won't ask and if you don't tell us as far as we're concerned we know nothing. But if for some reason we do find out, well, you're out. This is what we've had since the 90s.

The numbers WILL be kept, trust me. And anybody who gets in trouble over this will likely be part of a media feeding frenzy immediately.

This will be trouble.

I read where someone said ‘you can’t help who you love’. There is no problem with loving but you don’t have to F everyone you love. The point is getting approval to F not to love. Will the military now permit soldiers to F each other in addition to just asking and telling?

There’s going to be a lot of the gay’s in the military slipping on on a bar of soap, just wait and see.

Will not allowing gay soldiers to sleep in the same tent or share a bunk bed amount to discrimination ?

I wonder if America needs a Pinochet to straighten things out?

The world's greatest intellectual, Thomas Sowell, Ph.d, warned that there may come a day when the American military just won't take it anymore.
