“Gen. Raymond Odierno, Army chief of staff, says he’s asked senior commanders to provide him with recommendations and a plan this summer.”

Gee, recommendations and a plan...sounds like they’re not trying to determine WHETHER women ought to be allowed to go, but HOW they’re going to modify the program so women can artificially pass.

Sounds, in fact, a lot like the DADT repeal “survey” we had to take a couple of years ago...

Bank on that. This is a done deal and they are just working out the details. Does anyone - ANYONE - believe they will recommend against this?

Oh, and by the way, anybody else see how this dovetails with Obama’s campaign theme of the war on women? Do you think Obama just might be setting up Conservatives to oppose this? Naah...

Recommendation: Don't do it.

Plan: Get rid of every PC, equality-of-sexes, Muzzie-accommodating, homo-lovin’ social experimentation policy in DoD.

Looking at the Ranger fitness standards, there is likely no way to get significant numbers of women to pass current male standards. The minimum for pushups and 2mi run are past the 100% row on the female fitness charts. The Marine Corps found that only the top 10% of female Marines could do 6 pull-ups (the minimum passing number for Rangers)
