Racial desegregation and homosexuals in the military are NOT the same thing, just as the civil rights vs. homosexual marriage argument is a canard.

Those of minority ancestry should be insulted.

Homosexuality is a *BEHAVIOR*, Ancestry is *NOT*!

Mullen lives in a beautiful mansion in a well-secured complex near the Lincoln Memorial where a gay would be shot trying to enter the grounds, let alone share the same bedroom.

Just more reason we must crush the dems in 2012. Take no prisoners. THE ONLY REASON TO REACH ACROSS THE AISLE SHOULD BE TO GRAB A DEM BY THE NECK AND THROW THEM OUT IN 2012. PERIOD.

Any officer, particularly a flag officer, who describes leaving the service for the civilian world as finding another job is unfit for command at any level.

Parents do not wish their children subject to homosexual advances. This will not be good for our military recruitment.

This attitude ignores that fact that most Christians consider homosexuality to be sinful. The military wants people with high morals, but then orders them to forget their morals if they want to remain in the service. Is the military opening the door to immediate honorable discharges if someone does not want to serve with practicing homosexuals? I suspect that the military believes that this will not hurt recruitment or retention.

Respectfully Sir “Pound Sand”. I do not intend to re-enlist.

Very stupid remark by an obviously very stupid man.

I have to disagree. My suspicion is that, while they know that it will hurt both, they can't/won't admit it. I also suspect that they plan to cover it up when it does happen.

Me to Joint Chiefs: If you want to serve with gays, quit.

Oh noes, that’d send them into a right snit... wouldn’t it?

Pretty much the same that was said by Lt. Gen. Bostick a few months ago in Germany. Once it got out, he denied saying it............so much for honor.........

O and his fellow travelers in and out of the military are talking to the troops as if this is a given. They are moving in this direction. The way they are doing it is a violation of the UCMJ. They are already getting military leaders to conform to something that is currently illegal under the UCMJ.

The rules and laws of the U.S. Military are an enumerated power of the U.S. Congress. O is circumventing the U.S. Constitution, his responsibilities as Commander-In-Chief and the U.S. Congress...........

I wonder what kind of military we would have if most of the straight guys left/didn’t re-enlist and we were stuck with predominantly gay troops. How safe would you feel? I’ll be honest and say I don’t personally know any gay men (that I know of) and I’m just randomly thinking a lot of them are the limp wrist variety.

I don’t think they are allowed to quit you jackhammers. It’s a crime. Desertion.

That's just great!

Those who object the most (Combat Arms) are apt to be those who will not re-enlist and the "Support" personnel will grow or remain stable

What does that augur for our "Fighting Capabilities" in the near future?

Not good, IMHO!

Mullen is a moron and his Big Sis-like response ("Don't like the TSA Gate-Rape, don't fly") shows his ignorance as well as his complete PC/Multicultural acceptance and willingness to (at least, perhaps) destroy or weaken the Worlds best/mightiest Military--at a precarious time, when we need every advantage possible, not only to remain safe and free but to help protect the rest of the civilized world.

A Nam Vet!

The unfit President has his “YES” men in the Pentagon happy to be sodomized by one as charismatic and powerful as BO
Even as Mullen—and Gates have made manifest their utter CONTEMPT for our men and women in uniform—and have rushed to do the pleasure of this evil President-perfecting his tyranny.
Even as Marx and Lenin could not have done to the USSR what was done without the support of lesser men.so too BO has had his minions. Mullen and Gates and their kine will go to
their graves p —ing all over themselves because they believe they acted rightly but were misunderstood by those they HATE.
