Why Harvard Hates America: Faust is right to rain on ROTC’s parade(Don't ask-don't tell)

With a draft you have people who don’t want to be there, and in many cases, shouldn’t, although it would be funny to see these pansy-@ss wimps receive some much-needed military discipline.

I’m a Harvard alumnus (we DO exist on FR, contrary to liberal opinion), and a socially and culturally conservative Christian.

I am deeply ashamed that Harvard elected the feminazi Drew Gilpin Faust as its President. This happened in order to appease a politically-correct, ultra-liberal, feminazi-laden faction of the Facuty of Arts and Sciences (plus outside agitators, the biggest of whom I know personally), and despite the opposition of professional school faculty and many alumni and alumnae.

And I oppose the homosexual agenda, root and branch. One should be able to do so at Harvard or anywhere else without being labeled as a “bigot”.

Making a political statement supporting “gay rights” at a military commissioning, and implying that opposing these “rights” is “obviously bigoted”, is wrong, and is disrespectful of the puropse of the ceremony and the achievements and dedication of those commissioned. And it is even wrong to make such a statement at a commencement ceremony, for not unrelated reasons.

It would be offensive to our values for Harvard’s ROTC graduates not to begin their service in the shadow of the Pentagon’s repugnant discrimination.

This guy needs an editor -- unless this is a Freudian slip and he doesn't really believe the rest of what he's writing.

I bet headline writers are taking FR barf alerts into consideration and lengthening their titles. ;-)

That article code is effectively dead letter after Lawrence V. Texas.

Ahem!

To quote fellow Freeper BASICLOAD (see my homepage);

BASICLOAD SAYS; "When will it be OK for Gays to openly serve in our military? When we change the entire culture of our country, thats when.

When there are no more male and female bathrooms and the Army requires females to shower with me in the same open showers, thats when.

A female in the military deserves no more privacy than I deserve when it comes to my right NOT to be looked at by a gay man while undressed.

So you see that there is no good way out of this situation, but I will tell you one thing, the secular liberals in this country cannot have their cake and eat it too. When I have soapy boobs in my face in the shower, gays can look at my butt.

That just about sums it all up.
