Bet you guys serving in the military feel like chumps now. :)

You’re only as good as the politicians who need to be re-elected let you be.

What a slap in the face to everybody. :(

“Secession belongs to a different class of remedies. It is to be justified upon the basis that the States are Sovereign. There was a time when none denied it. I hope the time may come again, when a better comprehension of the theory of our Government, and the inalienable rights of the people of the States, will prevent any one from denying that each State is a Sovereign, and thus may reclaim the grants which it has made to any agent whomsoever.”

This is how the Marxists, socialists and communists in our government intend to destroy historys greatest and most lethal military.

From a review of the report that shows it will degrade the military significantly:

“So, while disputing the very fact that homosexuality is an identity at all and is instead a behavior, even when granting that identity argument, it still shows an increased risk of other associated mental health problems. Why would anyone wish to increase the participation of homosexuals in the military? The repeal isn’t for the existing members of the service who suffer from same sex attraction. They are already serving. If they feel less included, well that’s too bad. They understand the culture in which they operate and have adapted to function. They chose to contribute to the military. They have their disorder under control or at least hidden. By changing the military culture to endorse the disorder, the promoters of gays in the military radically risk chaos in the function of our armed services. The military has a standard of good order and discipline. Their mission involves life and death and war. Anything that degrades that mission is not a positive development, and open service by homosexuals degrades that mission.

So if it isn’t about the military, then why the push by those with the disorder and their supporters for repeal? Why the need to demand that the military allow those with same sex attraction disorder serve openly? It is because there is another agenda operating. This report, and the effort, has nothing to do with the military and everything to do with the promotion of the disorder across society.

The gay lobby has tied their promotion of their disorder to the Civil Rights movement. They are using the military to follow that agenda. The effort is to tie their push for the acceptance and active promotion of homosexuality to the desegregation of the military in 1948. The two cannot be equated as homosexuality is a behavior and being black is an identity. The moral component is also lacking if it can be considered at all in an age when all things moral are discouraged, disparaged, and marginalized.

This tactic is done without any concern as to how the military is affected. They couldn’t care less. This is about normalizing and promotion of homosexuality and the military is a tool to do this. If the military is altered to normalize this disorder, then there is little defense for marriage, religious objection, and individual states complaints. The push is all about the promotion of homosexuality in the greater society and nothing about the military or its mission. If a person wants to serve in the military it is because they wish to join the service and serve. They should want to contribute, not have the military serve them. What selfishness! What a degrading effect on the services!

That’s a pretty strong motive by a group with an agenda to be completely ignored by the press. On any story when a company or government entity puts out a report, shouldn’t the press question whether to take the report at face value? Or is there some reason for the report? Shouldn’t they examine the people writing the report to see if there is an ulterior motive? If the report itself is simply a lever to accomplish an agenda that is destructive, shouldn’t the press look into who is doing the destruction and why?”

This will be used to hammer gay marriage nationwide and invalidate any state opposition. That’s the purpose. That’s the goal.

In anticipation of the repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, in 2007, the Pentagon prepared a list of new or reinterpreted nomenclature and practices familiar to many older veterans. The gay EM who supplied Wikileaks sent us a copy just before his arrest. Some of the more interesting items are below.

All marching commands ending in “March” will now end in either “MINCE” or “SWISH,” at the option of the individual issuing the command;

The command “Right dress right,” will be replaced with “Right strapless evening gown, allrighty;”

Due to the distinct possibility that it may be misinterpreted, the command “To the Rear March” will be replaced with “OK, Fellas, Turn Around;”

Marching cadences employing “Jodie” will now replace that archaic appellation with the more metro-sexually appropriate “Brucie:”

The humorous but now out-dated phrase “Drop your c**ks and grab your socks” is to be replaced with “Drop your c**ks and grab the fella’s over there;”

A “Junk on the bunk” inspection will now allow that a soldier’s “junk” actually be displayed on his bunk;

If it will not interfere with “his” duties, a “Latrine Queen” may wear a pair of high heel pumps if they are OD in color;

The rank of “Private” will be replaced with “Newby.”

For those still smoking, as it could lead to serious and unit cohesion break-down, the phrase “Field strip that butt” will no longer be used.

As we did deeper into the documents we were provided, we will add other changes.

This was done purely for symbolism reasons - Ridiculous at the current time - With that said, it isn't going to change sh*t DR....and those warriors DR really aren't overly concerned with this in the least (as someone who has been DR multiple times to both Iraq and Stan).

The bill does not require repealing of the ban on sodomy in the UCMJ. The bill says: (D) Recommend appropriate changes (if any) to the Uniform Code of Military Justice. http://www.thomas.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c111:H.R.6520:

That means what happens next is important. If the sodomy ban stays, then homosexuality activity among service members is still forbidden.

"In these war-like times we're living in, fighting atheism, secularism, materialism, and a bucketful of other 'isms,' we need to pick up a new weapon. Not an old lady's strand of plastic beads held together with dainty little links. Real men with a real war on their hands need to pick up a two-fisted glistening sword capable of slashing at least three demons in half with one ferocious swing. That sword is not called 'Excalibur' drawn out of a stone by King Arthur and later returned to him by Vivian, the Lady of the Lake. This new sword is called 'El Rosario' given to all of us by Mary, the Lady of the Rosary" --Thomas K. Concert on Fr. Corapi, and Fr. Flanagan, "The Rosary Is Not For Wimps!."

This is not thew only issue, but I remember my father said that if he was drafted today fight for the U.S. today, he told me that "I would rather go to Canada or to jail than fight for the country." He was in the Army from 1955/57 and was stationed at Camp Casey in South Korea. It is a shame to see and hear that, but we are turning this country into an idiocracy. I have nothing against homosexuals although I don't condone the lifestyle or politics, but when it comes to the military, this could compromise unit cohesion and national security.

If a homosexual wants to serve his country, there are other ways. Take Alan Turing for example, he served his country, the UK (and the rest of us), during World War II by designing and running the early computers that helped crack codes at Benchley park in World War II. I think he was unfairly picked on for being homosexual and his life was private, but he did our cause a much better service than he would if he was slogging around in the mud with a Lee Enfield .303 rifle. Yes, that is also an important job, all jobs in wartime are important and as the saying goes, "the world is a stage" and we all have our parts to play.

This issue needs at least more study if not laid to rest entirely with the ban in place, but Obongo is really pushing it for the sake of political correctness and "feel goodism," all that would do is get us killed.

If you didn’t see before, you now see what is of importance to the Democrats and RINO’s that voted for this, shoving aside the economy, high unemployment, increasing debt and such.

Nothing matters but appeasement of Gays who continue to force acceptance of their lifestyle choice upon others.

God Bless the USA? No, God Help the USA!
