It's obvious Obama's finger prints are all over this.

These guys make a good point about politicization of the military. Thats exactly what this exemption represents.

Who would have ever thought that our soldiers would be allowed to march in uniform in a “We Love Anal Sex” parade?

They're precisely right. It's bad enough that gays serve openly but for the CINC and the brass to let them promote their lifestyle in uniform in a gay pride parade is about as political as it gets, and it's pathetic.

Who ever thought our sailors and soldiers would be saluting this in uniform?

I thought there would be a lot more outcry about it. Apparently there were the usual disgusting displays of gay sex in the parade.
Why the Navy had to dishonor itself by participating in this is beyond me.
I think the public-relations departments in the Armed forces are like PR departments everywhere, mainly staffed by gays and lesbians.
also I never understood why there wasn’t more trouble about the ‘First Kiss’ crap — a Navy female lesbian officer kissing her girlfriend -— that came out as soon as the policy was announced. They had to have had it ready.

The American military now being used like a prop in a Village People video. Sick.

If DOD allows in-uniform parading FOR gay rights, how can DOD (constitutionally) bar in-uniform parading AGAINST gay rights, e.g., a parade by service members who oppose the repeal of DODT?
No matter your stance on the underlying policy, I fail to see how any court would not agree that Equal Protection requires permitting someone in uniform to parade against X if parading FOR x is allowed.

It’s really only a matter of time before the Gay Mafia remakes the Military in its image. Anyone from the old Guard who doesn’t embrace (not tolerate: EMBRACE) the LBGT cause will be destroyed career-wise (at a minimum).
Bascially anyone in the Military who is a person of faith better watch their six. Not long ago, these people made up the backbone of the military—especially the Officer corps. Soon, they will be targets of Big Gay.

What is disgusting are the flag officers who just rolled over and allowed this.
Must be too close to retirement time.

I really believe the reason there's not so much outcry about this and other blatant displays is the homosexuals have been so vociferous on this in prior years that they've dumbed down many people that would have otherwise spoken out loudly.
They have played the PC angle to the hilt and made their depravity acceptable to many because of their claim of entitlement to live that lifestyle.

This is a precedent they are going to regret setting.

“In the rear with the gear” has a way different meaning than when I was in the Army.

Betcha there would be a courts martial by the end of the week if a uniformed military man or woman was in a Tea Party parade or Glenn Beck ralley.

Say goodbye to the words “conduct unbecoming.”
Anything goes now in Obama’s corrupted military.
