Al qaeda will be trembling at the thought of this new army

Former Vice President Dick Cheney said Sunday he supports the Obama administration's decision to repeal the "don't ask, don't tell" policy banning gays and lesbians from serving openly in the military -- a move that was staunchly opposed by most top Republicans.
"I think the decision that's been made with respect to allowing gays to serve openly in the military is a good one" Cheney told CNN's Candy Crowley on "State of the Union." "It's the right thing to do."
The policy, first enacted during the Clinton administration, was officially repealed on September 20. Over 14,000 people were kicked out of the military due to "don't ask, don't tell."
The controversial repeal of the policy became a focal point of a GOP presidential debate last month when members of the audience booed a gay soldier who asked about the decision. President Barack Obama criticized the Republican presidential contenders on Saturday night for failing to rebuke the audience.
"We don't believe in standing silent when that happens," Obama told attendees at the annual National Dinner of the Human Rights Campaign, an organization that promotes equality for gays and lesbians.....

We had gay guys when I was in 35 years ago. IDGAF if you’re gay.
All of this love for the homosexuals will start to fade once all of the lawsuits against the military by the homosoldiers start and the destruction of discipline and morale becomes apparent.
Go away? I wish Cheney was healthy enough to come back.
Cheney has a lesbian daughter which might be a consideration.
IIRC; The military will require its chaplains to perform marriage ceremonies resulting in married gay couples serving in the same unit. That might affect unit cohesion.
If you can’t figure out where to aim your ****, how can you figure out where to aim your gun?
I’d rather the soldiers that defend my country be a little more grounded in reality.
The military will become the ‘place to be’ for gays looking for love.
No kidding. As long as one conducts himself according to the Code of Military Conduct and with honor in general, and doesn’t tell me about his or her sexual issues or lack thereof, IDGAF either.
Sorry dude, Free Republic does GAF.

Queer agenda ping. The homo trolls are out today.
The baths in the military are communal. I don’t want any sexual thoughts at all in there.
The worst thing this country has ever done is put some @sshole who dodged the draft in a position of authority involving military affairs. That applies to this guy as much as it did to Bill Clinton.
A Chaplan can refuse according to news report I heard.

Mustang Driver here thinks mentally ill sex perverts are no problem in the military. The pro-pervert trolls have gotten their marching orders! Cheney is a fool and is consciously lying because he has access to the information that proves without a doubt that homosexuals cause trouble in the military. I hate RINOS and social liberal Rs and will never vote for one ever again. We need a President who will make as the first order of business UNdoing everything 0h0mo has done.
You think they don’t cause trouble, eh? There are only three reasons why you could possibly think they don’t cause trouble.
1. You were never in the military.
2. You’re a homosexual.
3. You’re just a regular leftist/liberal/Libertarian.
Here’s the truth about homosexuals in the military. And they aren’t “gay”, they’re miserable people who spread disease, have early deaths, commit more sex crimes, have a higher rate of “domestic/partner” violence, higher rate of alcholism and drug use, and actively recruit/molest young people.
