Pelosi: Let transgender troops serve openly
The Hill ^ | October 17, 2014 | By David McCabe

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) supports the elimination of rules that ban transgender people from openly serving in the military, her office told the Washington Blade.

“Leader Pelosi believes there is no place for discrimination in the U.S. Armed Forces, including on the basis of gender identity,” spokesperson Drew Hammill told the Blade.

In May, Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel said that the ban should be “continually reviewed.”

Why? Are we that hard up for recruits that we need to hire people with mental “issues” and illegal aliens?

People who are “trans-whatever” have certain mental issues.

Can’t we say that the military is not like civilian society, and that there are certain types of people who simply should not be in the military?

Can’t we say that the military can’t deal with certain problems?? Can’t we say that we don’t want people with certain issues to be in a combat life and death situation????

Or have we lost all reasoning ability because we want to prove how liberal we are????

How many transgerdered weirdos are there trying to serve in the U.S. military, anyway? Is this really some huge problem that needs addressing? I am having a hard time imagining this issue currently affecting more than two-dozen individuals.

What does ‘openly’ mean? Suspect it has some very large consequences that are not obvious.

Thanks be to God that we have someone as clear minded as Pelosi to keep us focused on the critical issues facing our country today.

Will they attack the enemy with their purses?

Seriously, trans genders and homosexuals shouldn’t be in the military. The military is based on taking orders, these 2 groups can’t take God’s order of their sexuality, how are they going to take orders from their CO?

It is impossible to change one’s gender. Those who believe they can are mentally unfit for service.

Pelosi is one sick sh*t.

Hey Nancy, what's your take on NAMBLA (North American Man/Boy Love Association)? After all, the men are just loving patriarchs to the needy boys looking for a father figure. Maybe we should give the pervs a chance to show their worth?

Deranged. But we already have the sick insanity of a military and a federal government that regards two perverted homos as the same equivalent of a husband-and-wife.

America is no longer a country, but a depraved, degenerate freak-show.

What is this “gender identity” bunk? Gender is fixed. Surgery and/or chemicals do not change your gender, it’s in your DNA.

She wants nothing more than the total destruction of the US military.

Yes, sure! What on earth is going on with people now-a-days? We have a population infected with notions of ‘tolerance’ and no sense of decency or reality at all.

Well, the liberals have decided that you can change your sex. You get hormone shots and have body parts surgically changed, and presto, you are now a different sex. Per liberal thinking. I know your DNA makes you male or female, but liberals don’t like that fact.

Good idea Nazi!

That'll make them prime targets for fragging and "friendly fire".

Transsexuals in combat Nancy?

What a complete "ditz-retard."

Is there ANY wonder WHY America is in the predictament it's in with this kind of thinking and mentality.

Pelosi is now 74 years old. Dementia has arrived.
