Its disgusting. Why must the vast majority be run roughshod over for the sake of a tiny handful of mentally affected people?

There will be 23 Democrat senators up for re-election in 2012, and some RINOs as well. The TEA Party should be recruiting now for incredibly strong candidates to run in the more conservative states. Wounded warriors with good communication skills and a spotless character would fill the bill. We can no longer have hacks being elected to destroy the nation one six-year term at a time.

I agree. Brown was a start, now he needs to be replaced by an actual conservative. And all other rinos deserve the same treatment.

The only way he could win was to become a RINO.

This type of person is nothing but a pig.

I applauded Scott Brown’s election on this forum.

Today I feel like an @ss.

But what could I have done differently? This is what I don’t know.

If or when this passes, I will no longer salute and thank anyone in the military for fear that I would be saluting a queer - my pride in having served will diminish greatly.

“Well, he’s better than Coakley.”

How can you tell?

“I didn’t know Manning was gay. I guess this just wouldn’t fit well into the whole liberal DADT repeal argument would it? Breathtaking media cover-up.”

Free press. Truth free. The SOB is gayer than Bawney Fwank. His “public appearances” have been suppressed. too. He was about as “private” about it as Fwank, too. The little bstrd is a prancing fairy and Assange is a perv. What a great advertisement for encouraging them to enter the military.

I’ve often wondered what “serving openly” meant ,too.

I don’t recall ever being in any ‘hetero pride parades’ or the like when I was in the Army.

I always thought DADT was a good compromise,but the gay mafia are not interested in compromise. They want this so they can next normalize gay marriage into law.

I guess the military is just another jobs program now.Maybe next we can get rid of discriminating against the near sighted and the flat footed. Maybe Mister Magoo can be a fighter pilot after all.

This is why it is soooo important to vote for Repulicans who can win, and not just support Conservatives! It is just that important to have Republicans in the majority. Remember, if there is an ‘R’ after the name, vote for that person. But if they have an ‘R’ after the name but can’t win because they are also conservative, then don’t support them in the primaries. /Rovain PSA

Hey!

At the time, we were all just hoping for a Big “R” to take Unkle Teddie's seat in the Senate. Well we got the big “R” all right, as in RINO. And he as mostly voted with the Democrats ever since.

Did anyone hear actually believe the Ruling Class would let a Freshman Senator hold up their agenda?? They are Told How to Vote and How to Act or the World will End. The sad part is they really do believe it, and they are right. The only chance of survival the Ruling Class has, is to keep the Game Going and inflict as much Damage on the Morality of this country as humanly Possible.

“Preparations for this include “sensitivity training” for all our troops. I wonder how much time and money will be spent of that.”

I’m trying to imagine some fairy educating Master Chief Duntno to accept buggery as natural and welcomed into the Navy he served for almost thirty years through two wars and the beginning of a third, many of those in close quarters and 8 of them on tin cans and destroyers in the Pacific ... no ... I just can’t. Sorry Pop. I hope your attention is diverted.

I'm not defending him. I'm merely pointing out that while Brown votes liberal about a third of the time, Coakley would have voted liberal 100%.

Brown still sucks, but Coakley would have sucked worse. Hopefully he can be replaced by a true conservative, but I doubt it here in ASSachusetts.

Problem is, the military seems to be supporting repeal. It troubles me that some very good men and women patriotically serving with great skills and abilities were discharged because of their gayness, but I cannot abide that gays will be part of baracks life. I take note that our good NATO allies have all accepted gays and they remain strong.

Love your tagline.

This has been stated over and over again, but I don't think there are any statistics or reality to back it up.

Most people discharged for claiming to be homosexuals do so before they get through basic. And overall, these numbers are TINY, as in way less than 1% of the members of the military, compared to those who are "serving with great skills and abilities" who will be discharged or leave voluntarily (40%) because of their non-acceptance of homosexuality.

I thought one of the generals was saying that if they get rid of it, our soldiers will be in more danger? This is nuts.

Other than being a pathetic RHINO shill, why would he support gays?

Why? Are they everywhere?
