WASHINGTON – As the commanders of the Army, Air Force and Marines cautioned the U.S. Senate against abruptly repealing the military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy, critics are also warning that accepting open homosexuality and pro-homosexual "reprogramming" could drive massive numbers of troops out of the service.

Obama is on record in saying that he wanted to cut the military in half. This could be one of his mechanisms for doing so. He and Barney Frank also want to cut the defense budget by 1/2 to 2/3.

[highlander_UW]

When Obama called for a civilian force equally as powerful as the military, and equally funded little did we know he meant to achieve it by destroying the military...although I'm sure most of us suspected he had that as a desire.

[Da Coyote]

I’ll keep my opinions on DADT private, but we all must remember that of McKennedy says it, it’s probably derived from stupidity.

The man is an ass, pure an simple.

This is as opposed to Obama, who is an impure simple ass.

[Cheetahcat]

Once again we have to bow down to a couple percent, this time it is the filthy perverts of our society. When is this crap going to end?

[BiggieLittle]

The gays will take over the military and other nations will laugh at us. Maybe not the Greeks given their history but the Belgians and others will.

I am out in February.

Sure, and after all of this political B.S. infiltrating the military, when all the good soldiers quit after getting fed up with the social engineering going on, when we need the military to protect our borders directly when all hell breaks loose, we will need a draft to get the good people back.

Nothing like a nice tyrannical draft just because of some elitist politicians who want to socially engineer our military.

****critics are also warning that accepting open homosexuality and pro-homosexual “reprogramming” could drive massive numbers of troops out of the service.*****

What would General GEORGE WASHINGTON do about this problem?

At a General Court Martial whereof Colo. Tupper was President (10th March 1778) Lieutt. Enslin28 of Colo. Malcom’s Regiment tried for attempting to commit sodomy, with John Monhort a soldier; Secondly, For Perjury in swearing to false Accounts, found guilty of the charges exhibited against him, being breaches of 5th. Article 18th. Section of the Articles of War and do sentence him to be dismiss’d the service with Infamy. His Excellency the Commander in Chief (George Washington)approves the sentence and with Abhorrence and Detestation of such Infamous Crimes orders Lieutt. Enslin to be drummed out of Camp tomorrow morning by all the Drummers and Fifers in the Army never to return; The Drummers and Fifers to attend on the Grand Parade at Guard mounting for that Purpose.

I can't believe any sane individual can think that allowing openly homosexual people into the armed forces will somehow have little-to-no negative impact and that a majority of service members are positive about the repeal of the 'Don't- Ask-Don't-Tell' rule. This is clearly a liberal ploy intended to weaken and decimate the U.S. military while throwing the homosexual lobby a big, juicy bone. This attempt at repealing DADT must fail or America will rue the day we allowed our politicians to do this to the one thing that separates us from chaos - the U.S. military.

[FrankR]

Then they don't even mention the problem that will kill off the rest of the corps, discipline.

The strict discipline of the military will not go over well with the gays, who are already programmed to yell 'foul' if you look at them wrong.

It will be a problem, and seasoned trainers and instructors will finally hang up their boots in disgust and get out of the service.

Just as obama was going to be the "post racial president", this scheme will backfire because those numbers the pro-repealers are as bogus as obamacare.

Repealing the law will open Pandora's box for another social organization - which is all the military will be after that happens.

After it's shown that this will not work, and the world is threatening us even more, and Private Bruce wants to hit them with his purse, it will be nearly impossible to ever again build up the superior fighting force we have now.

America the Beautiful, brought down by a gaggle of girlie men.

Decimating the military is the whole idea here. I don’t think Obama wants that, I actually think he has seen the light and listens to the generals. He didn’t run from ‘Stan or Iraq, has bumped up the tempo of UAV strikes and sent 30,000 troops to ‘Stan. Yes, it should have been 60,000, but politics shaved the extra 30k. He saw the light on
Gitmo too.

It’s the left in general that is pushing this, and they want to destroy the military so we can’t fight any more wars.

I think they should let the gays in. Make them announce that they are gay. Then the gay men bunk and shower with the women and the gay women shower and bunk with the men. Let’s see how the gays like that.

Yes, it must fail because a repeal will be irreversible, short some absolute miracle. We actually need to reinstate the flat out repeal of all homosexuals and others with sexual perversions, as the policy before DADT had been for eons.

McCain: 264,600 may quit military (DADT repeal)

Replaced by 264,600 homosexuals. How gay is that?

[chuckee]

The Belgians have had gays in their military for years as have most Western European countries. The last thing one should care about is how Western European militaries view the US military. Their donut dolly militaries are in no position to judge.

[personalaccts]

I bet more then 264,000 quit the GOP when McCrap became the nominee

[fwdude]

I meant, “reinstate the flat out banning of all homosexuals”

[dfwgator]

The Belgians have had gays in their military for years as have most Western European countries.

They have that luxury because we are still the primary defenders of Europe.

[Ann Archy]

ALL DECENT and MORAL people will leave the military!

[IronJack]

So the cost of allowing fags in the military is that a quarter of a million trained personnel leave. The benefit is that now our military is home to a bunch of sausage smugglers. It would seem that the cost far outweighs the benefits, if you’re actually looking to make a RATIONAL decision.

On the other hand, if you’re just trying to undermine the US military, this would be an excellent roadmap.
