WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama says anyone running for president must support the entire U.S. military, including gay service members.

Obama's comments targeted Republican presidential candidates. He says they should not have allowed a crowd to boo a gay service member who asked a videotaped question in a debate last month.

****He says they should not have allowed a crowd to boo a gay service member who asked a videotaped question in a debate last month.****

How were they supposed “TO CONTROL” the audience in a debate?

That is a scary statement!!!

Does he really think that 1-2% of the population (many of whom won’t vote for him) are going to win an election for him? Talk about deluded. Or is it personal for him?

Obama: Commander-in-chief must support gay troops

Only if he doesn't consider the gay lifestyle a perversion. And were does he get the "must support" idea?

When we elect the next President and take over the Senate, I want them to reinstate “DADT”; however, I am pretty sure they won’t do it. This change of rules will have a very bad affect on our Armed Forces if it is not stopped before it becomes more set in stone. Pretty soon they will push for spousal benefits and then for transvestites to serve. Mark my words, the proponents of this change have a much larger agenda. This was a political move to change the character of the Armed Forces and to make it less traditional and conservative. Anyone with a brain should be able to understand that.

If he can control the government over the Legislative and Judicial branches, why can't the next president?
I'm tired of these politicians knowing what is best for the majority. Unfortunately, the closer we come to people getting government handouts, the sooner we are the majority.
And I don't think that day is too far away.

I know what an athletic supporter looks like, but what does a gay supporter look like?

They already are agitating for so-called transgendered people to be allowed in the military. This is a low-down, sneaky strategy on Obama’s part. He intends to claim that any candidate that does not support the entire military is not qualified to be president. These people are beneath contempt.

“...should not have allowed a crowd...”

Says a lot about someone to think thoughts like this.

If we get a decent next President, then I am in hopes that they WILL reverse the gays in the military.

Of course, the GOP for the past several decades or more has often failed to reverse changes installed by the Democrats, for fear of offending someone. But we have reached the point where THAT MUST CHANGE. We simply cannot go on like this. We’ve reached the end of the road.

I’m in good hopes that someone like Sarah Palin will reverse it, and will be capable of convincing people that doing so is NOT an attack on our military, which of course will be the Democrat propaganda line.
