And what about same-sex military couples who live in a state where same-sex marriage is not allowed? No problem. "We recognize that same-sex military couples who are not stationed in a jurisdiction that permits same-sex marriage would have to travel to another jurisdiction to marry.

“non-chargeable leave”?

wish they had that when I was in.
maybe a special exemption for those who celebrate Festivus.

our military is being destroyed from within....I thought we had officers who went to Annapolis and West Point?...who were the smartest of the smart, patriotic, the best people?...

well, apparently, no, they are not....they see their fat PENSIONS and they'll do anything or say anything to get to their 20 yrs...afterthat, there's always political appts that really pay the big bucks, so carry the dirty water they will.

I've said it before and I'll say it again......there should absolutely be NO defined pensions for military....its too much of a dangling carrot...they can have transferable 401 k's like most people......

our military is becoming too much like the Russian military....they're treated better than other Russians, eat better, better pay, better health care, and for that, they'll shoot at their own citizens if they have too...

All this goes away if Obama is found in eligible to serve as president.

That conservatives don’t focus ALL their energies on this one easily attainable goal is the true tragedy of this Age.

0bama knows that they most ideal way to STOP any insurgent military from taking action against HIM, is to give power to those who are BEHOLDEN to him; the gays who idolize him as a fellow homosexual. Ask ANY gay person if 0bama is gay and they will answer in the affirmative.

I can’t believe I actually served in this country’s military. I do not recognize this country’s current military.

If you have control of the military you don’t need to fuss about distractions like laws, constitutions, the bill of rights, elections or golf course green fees.

Freeper libertarians kept trying to hide behind the “states issue” as they promoted the national homosexual agenda.

I notice that when they get a portion of their leftist agenda into law, they quietly move on to their next leftist goal.
