I think that now that Gates and his homosexuals in the P-gon have announced that “the troops” are all excited about the sexual deviants being allowed in the military, it should be very difficult for the military to ask for taxpayer dollars to fund homosexuality “sensitivity” training. When they try that ****, Congress needs to tell them to take a hike.

If we get a GOP POTUS, McCain will crap all over who that is.

He shouldn't care at all in a political sense any more.

He, like many others in the senate, should have just faded away years ago and enjoyed their golden years for crying out loud.

They just can't "be normal" and stop working at a decent retirement age like the rest of us do.

I bet he would make a GREAT part time door greeter at Walmart!

Can you imagine? “Bullying” is how the military runs. It will soon be lawsuit after lawsuit from these gays who are ‘insulted’ by their NCO’s.

They will sue and demand their right to wear women’s uniforms if they are men; because the ‘transgender’ can not be discriminated against. They will sue to wear their makeup and have sex wherever and whenever they feel like it...just like they now use our public parks. And it is “hate speech” to complain!

First thing, they will have to have marriage rights...HIV/AIDS will over run the military hospitals, and they will sue to make sure that they are not “discriminated” against because it isn’t the #1 priority!

You are dead wrong here.

They will wear this like a badge. They will openly flaunt their views and it will create a great division among those who fight next to each other on the battlefield.

The upper command is so far gone that they have adopted ridiculous rules of engagement that have caused countless and needless fatalities and casualties and much worse, they are unable to see it.

This is just one more slap in the face to those who carry the risk, from the upper Command.

Here are the direct links to the videos you claim to be the author of:

http://cnn.com/video/?/video/bestoftv/2010/12/18/exp.nr.dadt.reid.lieberman.cnn

Clearly you are not the author of this content.
You also have a couple of Tweets on your blog that, above, you
claimed to be the author of.
I’m not giving Tweets the dignity of posting them here.

Is there a reason you feel a need to claim credit for the work of others?

McCain is right, period.

Perhaps senility is kicking in and he misspoke? ; )

That is what they will DEMAND! You are not joking. It is a fact.

This reminds me of the Spanish Civil War, when 2000 Americans (mostly leftests) went to fight. The fascists (Franco included) were revolting against the government, who were socialists and Communists. The government decided gender separation in the combat units was not right, and proceded to experiment by fielding mixed units. Well, it was great fun for the soldiers until combat began and they were literally slaughtered. They were utterly incompetant as fighting units.

I am not saying our troups will be decimated, but rediness will suffer, and there will be unnessary casualties in order to perform this social experiment.

Don’t forget the support of six RINO’s. From what I observed in the military, I can tell you gays are despised. At Fort Riley, commanders ordered troops in pup tents to zip their sleeping bags together to keep from freezing in below- zero temperatures. Troops should have preparedness for battle on their minds, not whether another soldier’s mind will be on how to molest them. Did anyone notice the soldier who leaked the documents was gay?

The same people who could not stir to action against Major Nidal Hassan because doing so could have “upset diversity” within the military are the same people that are now saying allowing homosexuals in the military is a good idea. They are wrong on both counts.

The mind of a homosexual is the mind of an adolescent, at best, and that does not support the good order and discipline necessary for a military organization.

The big question to me is why?

2% of America is supposedly Homosexual.

Why does the Military have to change because 2% of it’s people want to engage in perverted sexual practices.

If we had 2% Vegetarians in the Military would they all have to eat their Veggies?

Many of the stories told about sailors getting ambushed off base are likely on base. It is taboo to talk about these things as happening on base.

Many of them have a theme of being knocked out with cleaning supplies and the person waking up the next day sore without knowing what had happened and who did it.

If gays are even half as hormonal motivated as the heterosexuals there is going to be a problem. There was a supply ship in the first gulf war that had so many of the females get pregnant that it couldn’t leave port till replacements could be flown in from the states. The ship’s nick name in the Western Fleet became the “Love Boat”.

This “repeal” is just the Commie’RATS paying back their special interest groups for their votes in November.

My family has served for six generations. That ends with the passge of this act.

It is even more than what you are saying. The military helps service members with issues like adoption, marriage, divorce, and healthcare for dependents just for starters, as I am certain you know.

What will happen when the first gay married military couple decide they want to adopt? It would be homophobic to refuse, mind you.

What will happen when it comes time OERs and an officer is found to be less than ecstatic about gays in his unit? You know how competitive those are, and how much the slightest negative comment can have on an Officer’s career.

I’d rather not not the answer to the above questions. I do know what the ultimate result of this action will be.

I must admit I've become disenchanted with Mr. McCain as well.

The truth about the whole Maverick thing? Looking back, he just reacts with personal pique toward whomever has most recently offended his sense of self-importance, whether that's Bush, Obama, McConnell, Reid, etc. He's actually devoid of principle. It becomes more obvious with every “stand” he makes, breaks, and remakes. And rebreaks.

The man is crafting a sad end to his career.

When the left turns the military homosexual, it will then turn it on America.
