Rear Admiral Says Religious Liberty Under Threat in Military

A high-ranking Coast Guard official said at a National Day of Prayer gathering that religious liberty in the U.S. military is being threatened and that service members are being told to hide their faith in Christ, according to a videotape obtained by Fox News.

“As one general so aptly put it – they expect us to check our religion in at the door – don’t bring that here,” Rear Admiral William Lee told a National Day of Prayer gathering. “Leaders like myself are feeling the constraints of rules and regulations and guidance issued by lawyers that put us in a tighter and tighter box regarding our constitutional right to express our religious faith.”

The crowd of religious leaders and lawmakers cheered for nearly a minute when Lee vowed to defy any attempt to curtail religious liberty within the Armed Forces.

“I am coming out today to tell you I am not going to run from my religious beliefs, from my right under the Constitution to tell a young man there is hope,” he declared in remarks first reported by World Magazine.

Lee told the audience he had set aside his prepared remarks and instead chose to speak from the heart about the challenges facing Christian service members.

“The problem that men and women like me face in uniform who are in senior leadership positions is that the higher you are – the more vulnerable you are to being taken down,” he said. “You get in the crosshairs of those people who lay in wait outside the gate – waiting to take us to task for expressing our faith.”

The enemy is audaciously testing our defenses (and our spirits and strength of faith).

Perhaps this is a good time for our senior military leaders who love America to move from the military to the state militias.

Its pretty difficult for the low ranking to express their faith when the admirals are punishing them for it.

Obama is naive enough to believe that division is just an Alinsky tactic. What he doesn't realize is that he is also dividing the country into solid groups who are willing to defend their ideas and faith against his attacks.

He is dividing the country but unifying his enemy.

Can't you feel it? There is a rising current...a new patriotic energy in the land.

[RoosterRedux]

As lazy and incompetent as he seems, Obama still seems to be the leader of this movement...he is the dictator with swag.;-)

So a transgendered president, so to speak.

[RoosterRedux]

I was using "swag" in the sense of his pimp with a limp way of walking and acting...but, as you point out, he is the most gender-confusing person I have encountered in quite a while.

At least the Wookiee is clearly in the macho category.

Obama himself seems capable to sliding from gender to gender with ease...quite the shape shifter.

[DanMiller]

On, please.

Is that said in a good or bad way?

Once the benefits run-out and stop, go for your guns.

Gays come out of the closet, Christians step in.

Grow a pair and find a good constitutional lawyer.

[RoosterRedux]

Be careful for what you ask for Yankee.

I've got a pair and a couple of dueling pistols to boot. See you at dawn.;-)

Just joking. My relatives were at Concord and Lexington...and Bunker Hill.

And we are still armed and ready.

oboma is a homosexual, not bisexual or heterosexual. He use to frequent the gay men's club called Man's Country on Chicago's near north side. He and rahm emmanuel were both known to frequent the club. He was well known to the Chicago cops for frequenting this spot when he was a “senator.” From interviews I've read, oboma was attracted to older white men who “serviced” him..oboma never returned the “favor.” You can google this and find out more...that is if it isn't already scrubbed. Moochelle is oboma’s “beard.” She knows he's gay,but agreed to join forces with him on the condition that she would have some power to push her political views..she was a champion of Mao. And it was Valerie Jarrett who hired both Mooch and oboma to work at a very well known law firm in Chicago. Initially the Mooch was oboma’s supervisor. Valerie told oboma that “they” felt he had potential to rise in the democratic ranks in Chicago and she was willing to “groom” him for the position. He even his some plastic surgery done on his nose. Since the Mooch had status at this law firm, oboma latched on to her...she thought it was a romance. So when they announced they were getting married, Valerie Jarrett told them that they had to present a “family image” for political purposes. So obozo closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, did “the deed” and two children were born. The Mooch and obozo take separate vacations so that obozo can hook up to old boyfriends, like Reggie Love, who use to be his assistant, until he left to further his education. The
Mooch knows what's going on, but she did agree to the terms in exchange for power to stick her nose in our business and tell us how to eat and what to eat and how to live our lives..she's the one who put a Christmas ornament on the tree in the White House a few years ago with the picture of Mao on the ornament.

When oboma took his separate vacation in Florida earlier this year, all you heard from the media was he played golf with Tiger Woods. Truth was that on his way to Florida from Washington, he stopped in to Chicago to give some sham speech on crime. His main reason for stopping in Chicago was to pick up Reggie Love, his ex-boyfriend with benefits,who was his former “assistant” in Chicago and in Washington, but who left oboma’s employ in Washington to ‘further his education.” So off they flew on Air Force One to Florida. You heard nothing about this from the media because they protect him. On oboma’s way back to Washington from Florida, he dropped Reggie Love off at the airport in Washington, and Reggie apparently caught a connecting flight home. The media was riding with obozo on the way back, and they were aware of all this. But these basta*rds protect him. His sexual makeup is his business, but when he lies and struts, and bs’s us all, while crawling around to meet old boyfriends and make new ones, he is deceitful and slimy about it, but it is in keeping with how he handles all his business...he lies, and people get hurt..Benghazi comes to mind. Google Rev. Wright and his church in Chicago..obozo had a boyfriend or two at this church..one was a choir master. Find out what happened to him by googling. oboma is slime in every move he makes, every lie that comes out of his mouth. The left is evil..there is no other word to describe them and their ideology.

oboma is an actor and he loves the role he plays..he thinks he is so smooth and can con anyone at any time. Google the Reverand Manning, a black minister who has a church out of Atlanta. Watch his videos on youtube. Some blacks are very much aware who and what oboma is all about..the Reverend refers to oboma as the “long leg mack daddy.”
