Yep but that poll is bogus though it did point out that when asked if people believe homosexuals should serve openly in the military only 44% support allowing them to serve ‘openly’. It’s all about the how the question is asked. And if you polled “Do you believe that homosexuals should be able to promote Gay Pride during service while in Uniform?” I guarantee the poll would be overwhelming against.

The same if you asked “Do you believe homosexuals should be actively recruited for military service at gay pride events?”

The only thing that people support and its largely because of ignorence and a conservative media deriliction of duty is that a person who is gay serving in the military in the same capacity as any other normal heterosexual person. They most certainly don’t the gay pride movement or what is gay activists would call ‘open homosexuality’ in the military.

This issue is easy to turn around and should go hand and hand with the marriage issue because the military is a cultural bastain that has been resistent to the conquest of the left and the repeal of DADT just gives the left one more tool to whittle away at another institution that happens to favor conservatism. The key is not to focus on whether they should serve but on the conduct and making sure that military can not apply political correctness to religious/conservative soldiers who disagree.

The left think they have won here but they haven’t no more than they have with Hate crimes legistlation. If anything it has made it harder to convict in some cases because it forces more focus on the abiguities of intent and motivation rather on simply was someone assaulted or killed.
Not that I think these ideas are harmful just sometimes one loses by winning.

Mark my words post 2012 you will see stories about how DADT never really went away at all. Also there are higher ups in the military biding their time to clean out the leftist scum that have infested the command hierarchy and the failures in Afganistan will give them perfect excuses. ;-)
