Now that Barack Obama will be the 44th president of the United States and commander-in-chief, will he do away with the militarys Dont ask, dont tell policy on gays?
Within days of becoming president, Bill Clinton sought to eliminate the long-standing prohibition against homosexuals enlisting into military service. His proposal met such stark opposition from within the ranks of the military that he was forced to compromise with the Dont ask, dont tell policy. Now, instead of a total prohibition of gays in the military, recruiters and commanders are prohibited from asking potential recruits and those under their command if they are homosexuals. Instead, it is acceptable for homosexuals to serve in the military so long as they keep their sexual orientation to themselves. Any admission or evidence of homosexual activity is grounds for a discharge.

This is EXACTLY what the Dimocrats and their aid and abettors on the left want!! They HATE the military and this is a way of tearing it down and destroying it. They can then say, WE NEED THE NEW OBAMA HOME GUARD MILITARY, and form their Gestapo police force within. I knew WAY, WAY, WAY back in the 1970s that Dimocrats could not be trusted with my military. I knew few people in those days and throughout my military career who supported Dimocrats. VERY FEW.
Maybe you should try out for the Baltimore Ravens' Male Cheerleading Team
Not much difference actually, most male homosexuals were molested by adult homos when they were young boys. Some of the homos in the catholic church (<5% which gave the church a very bad name and frankly that was part of the intent), molested well over 100 boys. Male homos in San Fran play this sick behavior as a game — they pass the young boys around and even have a nickname for them — “Twinks.” Homos also have an international organization promoting their obsession called NAMBLA.ORG — check it for yourself. Pedophilia is part of the lifestyle yet hidden in the closet and soon to be marketed and forced on the normal folks.
There is something profoundly sad about a person who primarily defines himself by who he is sexually.
Homosexuality is a behavior, it is a learned behavior, it is an addictive behavior, it is a destructive behavior.
I agree entirely. There’s a hella lot easier ways to troll for sex than joining the military. Seriously flawed article.
REAL LIFE STORY, written very quickly, because I have to leave.
I was drafted at the beginning of the big Vietnam buildup in January 1966. Sent to Ft. Polk La. for basic training.
Second or third day of BT, I had KP duty in the Mess Hall, ladling out mashed potatoes. I didn’t even bother to look up as I filled the trays of the lined-up recruits. I put some potatoes in one tray and immediately heard a loud “OOooookkkkk!” from the soldier with his tray out.
I looked up and saw an odd looking duck with one missing front tooth, and 1/2 inch hair, like we all had, and a very different kind of manner. This turned out to be RIchard P-——, who resided during Basic in Barracks #3.
Soon enough, we in the other barracks heard stories about Richard, who it was rumored was gay and an actual female impersonator. Richard flitted (literally) among all four barracks, introducing himself and showing everyone pictures of himself dressed up as a woman (at a club in Chicago, where we were both from) dancing with gullible men who’d come to the club. Amazingly, all the fellow recruits had a keen-eyed interest in this, and did not feel threatened in any way. It was kind of a curiosity, but hey, he was a fellow soldier right?-—so we went on, accepting this very interesting and different addition to our Basic Training OUtfit , F-1-5. END OF PART ONE.
gotta go. will bump later tonight......
I know that this is a sensitive subject, but IMO a lot of priest pedophiles were/are homosexual. I have heard stories from ex-seminarians that some Catholic seminaries (I don’t mean to just pick on Catholics) were like gay disco clubs, at times.

I want to join an NFL cheerleaders team (any team!). Honest, I won't troll for sex.
I would add that there are currently many gay men and women serving in our military. I’ll bet most recent soldiers are well aware of who these folks are. I seriously doubt that their presence degraded the military.
The real issue is that the Democrats want to make gays a “protected class” within the military. I think we all know what happens when certain groups start to receive government protection - sensitivity training, affirmative action, forced acceptance of things that are contrary to your moral values, etc.
We all know that some guys paid too much attention while in the showers. Now they can do it without fear of official reprecussion. However, the blanket party may still be the solution.
Lets see, a single gender unit, with enforced common living and sanitation conditions, prolonged separation from western society, absence of typical social sexual outlets.
You're right they're not there to troll, they are there to recruit.
>>In a Military Times poll, a HUGE number of people said that they would not re-enlist, or would consider not re-enlisting should DADT go the way of the Dodo.
Which is why Rangel wants to re-institute the draft.
Wonderful.

And you were in the USMC, USA, USN, USAF, USCG???
Me, USMC 1970-1981
No, but I don’t need to be a accountant to talk about taxes or a politician to talk about politics either.

After the end of “don’t ask don’t tell” comes “anti-discrimination” regulations followed by “celebrate gays”. In the long run, it probably doesn’t increase the number of boots on the ground, just the size of the bureaucracy and number of bathroom incidents. Progress ...from the point of view of a so-called “progressive”.
