The general has done something excellent here. By making a public statement he has drawn a line in the sand that everyone will be asked to get on one side of or the other. The dems are already getting on the left side and now the Republican candidates will be shown that same line. There is no way to avoid it. THANK YOU GENERAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

COL Stewart Bornhoft, USA (Ret.); CAPT Joan E. Darrah, USN (Ret.); CAPT Robert D. Dockendorff, USNR (Ret.); Chaplain (COL) Paul W. Dodd, USA (Ret.); CAPT Sandra Geiselman, USNR (Ret.); COL E. A. Leonard, USA (Ret.); and CAPT Robert Michael Rankin, USN (Ret.) issued their statement on Friday morning.

I guess Regis Urschler, BG USAF (Ret) is still in the closet as is Col Lindsay Graham, USAFR.

The General said the conduct is immoral. Who can argue with that? These activists need a nice big cup of STFU and the General should apologize for nothing!

When I was in Saudi Arabia, our commander conducted a new member briefing and went on a tirade about how he was not going to stand for his officers dancing together at the O-Club. It was a riot. We need more officers like him and Gen. Pace.

""Does General Pace believe we are immoral, or that our service was unacceptable?"

Yes that is what he said, now get over it!






I think this post was directed at the wrong person.

The headline should read "highly liberal, lesbian, homosexual ex-military" blah, blah. There ain't no "GAY" homosexuals that I know of. They take every opportunity to suggest their their "gayness" is normal, but do it in an argumentative way.

That's a good point, but I still think he is looking for a way out. The question I have is, will the administration withstand the unrelenting pressure? It won't be long before members of the President's own party will be asking for Pace's resignation.

COL Stewart Bornhoft, USA (Ret.)

Stew Bornhoft. Well, well, well. The things you learn on Free Republic. I bet his wife was surprised when she found out. Stew's career came to a flaming end (no pun intended). But, it wasn't because he came out of the closet, as far as I know, he practiced "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" right up to the end. His problem was that he worked for a hard ass 3-star who had zero tolerence for incomptence - bye, bye Stew.

Demand an apology" Whatever happened to folks that say what they mean and mean what they say? I just wish somebody would say "the hell with this apology crap, I meant it."

Exactly what I was thinking.

He may well be, but I am beyond tired of the constant misstatements of everything that Republicans say. I emailed this bunch about it. Will they ignore it, sure.

Nope. That's being discussed on another thread.

From the same source: "More then 128,000 individuals have quit the armed services after being harassed by homosexual superiors"

It's such fun to make up statistics, and so much easier then doing research.

group of seven high- ranking military veterans today responded to recent remarks by General Peter Pace,

In a perfect world Pace would reply " STFU and stop defining yourselves by what you stick up your a$$es. "

I don't know who said it first, but it is oh so true.

It's gone from " The love that dare not speak its name", to 'the asses that won't shut up!'
