The chairmen of the House and Senate Armed Services Committees say they want answers from the Obama administration on its new transgenders-in-the-military policy.
Rep. Mac Thornberry (R-Texas), the chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, is questioning whether transgender troops will meet military readiness requirements.
And Sen. John McCain, his Senate counterpart, is promising hearings on the matter.
“It’s very hard for me right now to make a judgment,” McCain told Fox News on Thursday. “I will be calling up the chiefs of the services, those men in uniform who are the heads of the military, and asking their views, including the costs of immplementing — I’m talking about the fiscal costs of implementing some of these changes.” …

as an officer, and especially a pilot, McCain never had to share a room or bathroom with anyone, normal or deviant...
WE are so politically correct nowadays, that we aren’t allowed to make any judgements of any kind. Because any judgement made will somehow discriminate against someone.
In the case of transgenders in the military, we aren’t allowed to say, people who think they are a man trapped in a woman’s body and all that, just have too many problems to be in the military.
We aren’t allowed to say, that people who need hormone treatments and ongoing psych therapy to deal with being a man in a woman’s body and all that, just don’t belong in a combat zone. We aren’t allowed to say, some people have issues which are not compatible with the mission of the military.
This really gets me too, because the military is structured fundamentally different from civilian life. The mission of the military, to be successful, needs to weed out those who fall short physically, mentally, emotionally, etc.
the reason the libtards and LGBTLOLWTF crowd are so anxious to force these mentally ill people into the military is so that the US taxpayer can pick up the costs for their “transitioning”. this is going to be hugely expensive in both $$$, morale, and fighting readiness.
if the libtards can do all of this with the stroke of a presidential pen (by executive order), why can’t the GOP ever seem to undo any of this the same way?
the GOP really is the stupid party. the ineffectual, perpetually-flustered, stupid party. they get outwitted time and time again by a democRAT party that is so fundamentally opposed to everything out Founding Fathers stood for, that it’d be almost laughable, if it weren’t so deadly serious.
He promises to have hearings just as soon as he’s re-elected. Promise.
No, really, that’s a promise.
McCain is worried about the cost like in money?
Blocked this McCain or get another shade of lipstick to wear!
