Obama expected to press repeal of military ban on 'gays'

A conservative pro-family leader believes the Obama administration will move sooner rather than later to attempt to repeal the law that forbids homosexuals from serving in the military.

In recent weeks there have been conflicting reports about a timetable for the new, more heavily Democratic-controlled Congress to try to repeal the 1993 law that bans homosexuals from the military. The Washington Times reported that president-elect Barack Obama will not move for months, perhaps not until 2010, to ask Congress to repeal the ban. The paper quoted two sources who advised the Obama transition team about the potentially explosive issue.

But Elaine Donnelly, president of the Center for Military Readiness, gives credence to a story published in CNN that the policy could be overturned this year.

"I was told by a reporter, [from] a very respected media institution, that the number-three priority on the list of the liberal activists who are very excited about Mr. Obama taking over the White House...is indeed [the] repeal of the law regarding gays in the military," she explains.

Obama, according to Donnelly, is committed to social engineering in the armed forces. "The president-elect Mr. Obama has made it very clear that he would support legislative efforts to repeal the law," she contends. "He wants to open the armed forces to social engineering on an unprecedented scale, making it a civil rights issue to say that there should be homosexuals in military 24/7."

Donnelly says it is important for supporters of the military to contact their members of Congress and urge them not to repeal the ban.

...Barack Obama will not move for months, perhaps not until 2010, to ask Congress to repeal the ban.

By 2010, due to the lousy administration I expect from these bozos, a new Republican Party could emerge that truly stands for something.

Socialists generally loathe the military. With a Socialist President and many Socialist in Congress a move to place homosexuals into the military and destroy it would not be a great shock.

If the Dems have their way, we soon enough will need a draft for their “Huminatarian” UN blue helmet missions.

I just wish they would all go back in their closet & stay there. I don’t want to know about anyone’s sex life.

If the Marxist succeeds in this (and I pray that he doesn't) I won't be the least bit surprised to hear that a large number of fairies are being fragged.

LoL. Fear not, friend. By simple virtue of structure and organization, the Armed Forces of the US are fundamentally conservative, as a whole. Certainly their are pockets, or --- dare I say --- social groups / classes of people serving that support this and other liberal notions, but their voice is muted by the overwhelming majority. You might be comforted by knowing that the military is so steadfast in it's traditions that we still openly and publicly have an invocation and benediction at ceremonies - and prayer is to the God of Abraham. Depending on the Chaplain officiating, their may even be reference to Jesus Christ.

here cometh the abuse of rank, promotion and rape by homos in our armed forces, all normalized, with the homo in chief, Obama’s picture mandated to replace other forms of worship.

The military doesn't need homosexual nut-cases in the ranks, but then the leftists headed by Obomba know this but don't give a damn.

Not a good scenario.

Indeed.

What I don’t understand-
MOST gays are militant liberal democrats.
Militant liberal dems HATE the military!
So, why do gays want so badly to join the military?
Do they want to be around all those “big guns and manly men in uniform” or do they want to just totally destroy the military? How well does a gay man fight anyway? Do they know how to handle guns or do they slap and scratch like a girl?

Why can’t they allow them in and put them into an all gay Pink Brigade or Rainbow Brigade? They can wear sassy little pink berets and get sent straight to seriously dangerous areas of Iraq or Afghanistan. There would then be a few less of them here “acting up” in this country about Prop 8.

Maybe they just really want to join the USO.

I expect changes such as this will have a devastating effect on recruitment. This scenario gives new meaning to the phrase, "Watch your six.".

Bothg....they want to DESTROY what they can’t have, and also it’ll be a good place to meet other gays.

There is no doubt that this will take place. I'd venture a guess as to Obama’s first year in office. This move is a down payment on what he owes to all of his homosexual allies.

With the military and the White House full of perverted homosexuals their 'agenda' will get a big boost and America will sink lower in the muck of evil.

Unlike the leftist, smirking, cheshire cat from Vermont, Leahy who once infamously said "I love my government," I truly hate mine.

There may be an onslaught of homosexual enlistees who will no doubt be shunned by the masculine soldiers. The perverts will bunch up into cliques and pick at the normal servicemen like a pack of hyenas.

When the revolution comes these 'minorities' will be the first to croak.

So they can watch the sweaty soldier boys shower.
