No one gets deployed in just a T-shirt, Saldana said. No one gets to fight for our country in just a T-shirt. No one is recognized as an American service member as easily in a T-shirt. Were loud and proud, and I think these uniforms are very loud and allow us to be very proud.
Sick, twisted, perversion of the Military in full swing now (pun intended) courtesy of the Homosexual in Chief - with some serving openly under (and apparently saluting) the "rainbow flag".
Don McLean wrote a song over 30 years ago called The Pride Parade. The lyrics are unintentionally prescient.
“It started out quite simply, as complex things can do;
A set of sad transparencies till no one could see through,
But least of all the one inside, behind the iron glass;
A prisoner of all your dreams that never come to pass.
“Alone you stand, corrupted by the vision that you sought,
And blinded by your hunger, all your appetites are bought,
But in spite of what becomes of you, your image will remain;
A reminder of your constant loss, a symbol of your gain.
“And your friends are together,
Where the people are all gathered,
All along the road you traveled all your days.
“And soon, you have succumbed to what the others all believe,
And though the lie affects them still it’s you that they deceive,
And all at once you’re lost within the emptiness of you,
And there’s no one left who’s near enough to tell you what to do.
“You’re left with nothing but your self-potential in the dark,
Like tinder resting on a rock, protected from the spark,
But your fire just consumes you, you alone can feel the pain,
And you stand in all your glory and you know you can’t complain.
“But your friends are together,
Where the people are all gathered,
All along the road you traveled all your days.
“But you are surely just as evil as the worst my tongue can tell,
For you’ll never face my heaven and I’ll not endure your hell.
You have lost the chance to mingle by your constant, quiet lies;
Deceptions hidden with your lips, but spoken with your eyes.
“For I know you for what you are, not for that’s really all you are.
And your talents of a minor order seem to stretch too far.
And we both know that this masquerade can’t carry on too long.
You’re deep inside the Pride Parade, but where do you belong?
“And your friends are together,
Where the people are all gathered,
All along the road you traveled all your days.”
How is this parade not political?
One of the only differentiating factors in the current presidential race has to do with gay marriage.
Its political. Keep the uniforms out of it.
The military takes it's orders from the (bisexual?) president. They do as they're told. That doesn't mean they approve.
I believe after 2012, if we can get the radical-n-chief back to community organizing, this type of dysfunctional behavior will cease.
Let us assume that there will be a scheduled Heterosexual Pride parade, and the military is invited to march in it.
Anyone wanna bet what the Obamadorks, the bottom-O-the-SAT press, and University Useless Department “Professors” would have to say?
Yeah, right. The Dysfunctional United States of Homosexual Sex (D.U.S.H.S.)
Has a nice ring to it, doesn't it? (Massive sarcasm)
So when do the Celebrate Heterosexuality parades start? Isn't it about time the heterosexuals rose up and had a national day of family, children, and American apple pie?
A patriotic event?
I think not.
Go to zombietime.com and check out some of the gay pride parade photos. Some of the most obscene stuff you can imagine.
...Ahab with an old flintlock and camel alone will be able to whip our butts.
If blacks vote 95% for the swisher in chief again they will be the homo race.
Any service member in uniform who salutes a Gay Pride flag should be seen at court-martial. Period.
I believe there is a regulation against participating in political advocacy while in uniform.
In a related story, the Pedophile Pride Parade has also urged service members to ask their commanding officers for permission to march in their uniforms.
Associating the uniform with a political statement is wrong whenever it is done.
What a wonderful example the Senior Master Sargeant is setting...
Homosexuals in the military are like tee hee termites in the mahogany...a hard strong wood resistant to normal biological toxins meeting alien freakish deviant and abnormal assaults from sick and wrong agents bent on making the whole unwholesome and thus subject to corruption and control.
Will the DOD allow military/naval members to present themselves in uniform at Pro-Life or Pro-Marriage or partisan political events? Thought not.
Also, the image of “twits” in uniform saluting any flag other than that of our nation or the several states (or another nation, ceremonially, as appropriate) is most resentful to me and our status as a soveriegn nation.
Our national military leaders have no balls it seems to do right or resign, (”fortitude” for those who are “inclusive”).
I retired from active duty only a few years ago (2006) and I work on a major Army installation, however, the military I see represented in the media and in policy does not reflect what I see daily in the form of boots on the ground and in the acts of our young warriors.
It has been my expereince in conversation that while our uniformed personnel ackowledge that some choose to be (sodomites) they do not desire to know about that or heterosexual exploits either.
Our military has had a long tradition of being rather apolitical in policy and accommodating of most rational political and social viewpoints, (but not most behaviors). It is rather silly to assume that policy promoting, not just allowing, abnormal sexual conduct (yes, ab-normal) would have no impact on the ability of our nations forces to accomplish every mission with aplomb and minimal loss of life (on either side).
Social experiments belong in labs, not in the critical context of a nations war-fighting prowess.
God Help us, as it seems we have loss our compass.
(POST- I note in advance that my viewpoint may not be agreeable to many-even in this forum-whatever.)
