I heard a report today that homosexual "marriage" will now be authorized in the military. Chaplains can perform the ceremonies as long as it is in accordance with local law and doesn't offend the chaplains' religious beliefs.

Time for purge in the Pentagon to get rid of whoever is signing off on this crap.

Mullen steps down , that ass pushed this legislation and now steps down,
Force him to share showers with a bunch of queers then.

PC has infested our military and now we have officers who do the PC thing instead of doing their job, it seems promotion is done on who kisses who .

Thankfully the marines and I think the airforce stood firm against bozo

Not true [as yet] - Defense Of Marriage Act forbids the military from recognizing same-sex marriage ...

I just saw on the news that you are correct, the Pentagon issued a directive authorizing same-sex marriage by chaplains ...

If I were a member of Congress, I would haul the ENTIRE JCS up to Capitol Hill to 'splain themselves. They have just [effectively] enacted legislation to overturn DOMA ...

THEN, I would DEMAND their IMMEDIATE resignations - the JCS ARE NOT legislators !!!

Here are the DOMA provisions, as codified in the USC:

1 U.S.C. § 7. Definition of "marriage" and "spouse"

In determining the meaning of any Act of Congress, or of any ruling, regulation, or interpretation of the various administrative bureaus and agencies of the United States, the word "marriage" means only a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife, and the word "spouse" refers only to a person of the opposite sex who is a husband or a wife.

28 U.S.C. § 1738C. Certain acts, records, and proceedings and the effect thereof

No State, territory, or possession of the United States, or Indian tribe, shall be required to give effect to any public act, record, or judicial proceeding of any other State, territory, possession, or tribe respecting a relationship between persons of the same sex that is treated as a marriage under the laws of such other State, territory, possession, or tribe, or a right or claim arising from such relationship.
