My worry is that at some point, many will say, "This country ain't worth fighting for anymore."
With this candy-ass stuff coming from DC, who can blame them?

The troops should flip the bird to whoever is holding these so-called “sensitivity training” sessions. Then they should walk out.
What’s Gates and Obummer going to do....court-martial the entire Army and Marine Corps?
Enough is enough of this left-wing bullcrap.

Yep, not surprising.
You don't hear Republicans complaining about Obama’s decision to not defend DOMA, setting us up for paying SS and medicare to same-sex couples. And you will hear crickets on this, I miss 1993.

At the very least, SNL’s “writers” will have some fodder, upon which they’ll save their arses for the near future.

Now when we pray to God to be merciful and protect our sons and daughters it isn’t just from a vicious enemy from without. It’s from those who are in control of our armed forces.

So unconstitutional from a million standpoints. Forcing respect for such disgusting and demeaning behavior takes away the freedom of conscience and religion. I suppose they have messed with the troops minds with the homosexual Afghanis who molest their boys and parade them around....The military homosexual commander in chief is trying to destroy our military now...
You will not have troops who are honorable and have character, if they practice homosexuality. It is not possible. Forcing respect of that act is a gross violation of conscience and it goes against our Constitution...laws can not go against the nature of man. They are unjust according to the intent of our Founding Fathers. There is nothing natural about homosexuality. It is a perversion and it always includes pederasts. It advocates child abuse.
Listen to the first paragraph of this....it is what homosexuality is all
about....

I know it. I hope they find ways to pass on their training to civilians who might be interested.

I talked to my son the other day about this. He’s a middle manager rank in the Army. He’s got three years to do and then he’s retiring. He can’t stand the way things are but he has invested so many years that he can’t just walk away without his full retirement. He says that many, many troops feel this way but with the shaky economy, they’re not sure they can make the kind of money out of the military that they make in, so they stay, but just putting in time.

There was similar lunacy during VN with a requirement for a full week of racial sensitivity training. I don't think ground combat units in the RVN had to go through the program . Everybody else did and it produced some interesting results. In one case a USAF go got called a ‘racist mfer’ while undergoing sensitivity training on Okinawa. These festivals of the mind are right out of the theater of the absurd.
