WASHINGTON (AP) -- Pentagon chief Leon Panetta has decided to end the ban on gays serving openly in the armed services and certify that repealing the 17-year-old prohibition will not hurt the military's ability to fight, officials said Thursday.
His decision, which was expected, comes two weeks after the chiefs of the military services told Panetta that ending the ban would not affect military readiness.

No, but 100% of them swore to this:
“I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.”
Today the last space shuttle landed again here on mother earth.The day we Americans put a man on the moon I was in Basic Training at Ft.Campbell Ky and we were told to fall out in the street with our dufflebags and we watched the television coverage.Today Michael Savage said Obama has put us at the back of the bus as far as the space race goes.I agree.
We have been turned into a nation of beggars by this Communist.Today Obamas’ YES man in the new Pentagon Leon Panetta -who I believe was a quartermaster? has said Sodomy in the Military ranks will be fully authorized by the Pentagon by September. Today I would say to ANYBODY in this
Administration I cannot encourage ANYBODY— except a flaming fag to enlist in our Military absent the order that if they enlist -when they are assaulted in the barracks —off duty Their immediate response to such assault ought be to treat their attacker as they would ANY enemy combatant on the field of battle/for in the moment the Reprobate acts out their orientation they cease to be a fellow soldier but have become our enemy.AND ought be treated as such.
It sure seems that way.
that’s good - and there was a day when that oath meant something. I hope it still does. That doesn’t get to my question, however. If the Army is recruiting a bunch of 100 pound 19 year old women rather than 180 pound men, for example, that’s a problem. If the Army is experiencing “white male flight”, that also is a problem. If you are a member of a gang who would be going to prison, but agreed to join the Army instead, that’s a problem.
Totally agree. It will be interesting to see how it all plays out.
