And it is none of my business what two other guys do. Liberty means that you have freedom, but you have an obligation to allow others that same freedom, even if you don’t like what they are doing.

You are a moron. It is society's business when gays want to foist gay marriage on the rest of us. You are pagan or godless but good luck anyhow praying to your flying spaghetti monster.... yes we all know how high IQ and amazing you are. Keep praying to the alter of yourself and see how far it gets you

This is not an anti-gay position; it’s a pro-military position.

It's also a position supportive of, and founded on, the Framers' shared consciousness that the society for which they wrote the Constitution was a moral one, of self-regulating, moral men and women, and that our Republic would be totally inadequate for the government of any society that was neither Christian nor moral.

Freedom is founded on maturity, morality, and self-regulation of the individual citizen as the basic building block of a free society.

Free Republic is a site dedicated to the concerns of traditional grassroots conservative activists. We’re here to discuss and advance our conservative causes in a more or less liberal-free environment. We’re not here to debate liberals. We do not want our pages filled with their arrogant, obnoxious, repugnant bile. Liberals, usurpers, and other assorted malcontents are considered unwelcome trolls on FR and their accounts and or posts will be summarily dismissed at the convenience of the site administrators.

If gays get married, I don’t you are personally affected, so it’s not really being foisted on you.

Dammit, can’t spell tonight!

If it doesn’t affect you, then it is not being foisted upon you, is it?

Not true.
If a soldier is a rapist must we support him because he is a soldier? NO
If a soldier is a murderer, must we support him because he is a soldier? NO
If a soldier is a pervert (homo) must we support him because he is a soldier? HELL NO............

The good news is that Barack Obama stands behind our troops.

The bad news is he’s rolling on a condom.

Credit Ann Coulter for this excerpt. I agree with it. Note: I am also a veteran with 8 years active duty service. The military should not be a social engineering lab. Its purpose is to defend this nation. Aything that impairs the ability to do that is wrong.

Why would he want to support the gay ones?

Because he wants to get rid of the culturally conservative, quintessentially American warriors who overthrew Saddam and killed Osama Bin Laden, and replace them with a military of amoral, liberal and homosexual Dragon's Teeth like the Nazi SA and SS, to do his pogroms and mass slaughters against the American People during what the KGB used to refer to as "normalization operations".

Next question.

So what do we call atheist supporters of gays in the military? Tell us, do you enjoy an occasional rump ride on the chocolate joy stick?

I'll keep it simple: "gays" are not monogamous. The primary focus for "gays" is sex, not service to their country. They prefer each other and this leads to networks of "gays" throughout units, ranks and services. These networks assist their own through promotions, assignments, awards. We have had decades of having to investigate these networks and eliminate them, as in the "Lesbian Mafia" in the Marine Corps.

The other issue is disease. "Gays" have STDs at a rate 40 times that of the normal population. We have enough trouble with the military medical system as it is, without adding that problem.

Now that Obama has pushed "gays" into the open, next we have "gay marriage" being forced into the service as well - with the added fun of assigning base housing, spousal benefits, etc. We also have the next tier of perverts demanding their addition - transexuals, etc.

Now, are supposed to be a fighting force or a massive social and sexual experiment?

As others have said, there has always been gay soldiers present in the army, so I do not think the military bond has been undermined.

The military bond is "undermined" (broken) when some members commit perjury, manslaughter, and espionage for foreign powers, and when they riot, fraternize, homosexualize, or do other things destructive to the good order and discipline of their Service.

Snap to and smell the coffee ... unless, of course, you're trolling.

Yes, and we have had to find them where they have eroded discipline and morale and get them out too. Gays in leadership positions have been a cancer within the services.

I’m not an atheist.

I am supporter of liberty, first and foremost. I am against abortion, I believe in fiscal responsibility, I am against illegal immigration and advocate giving citizenship only to those who follow the proper legal route, I believe the free-market system is the best form of economic organization and that private property is absolute.

Are you willing to cast out a person who believes in such things, just because that person has a different view of homosexuality?

Premise rejected. Go away.

I disagree that gay people exclusively hang out with each.

I do agree that there is an issue with safe sex and STDs with male homosexuals which does need to be address and discussed in the open.

I see that you’ve been a Freeper for a couple of weeks now - are you one of our “gay conservatives”?
