US generals, admiral come out of the closet - flag fag officers

By John Files

Washington

December 11, 2003

Alan Steinman, Keith Kerr, and Virgil Richard. Picture: New York Times

Three retired US military officers - two generals and an admiral - who had been among the most senior officers to criticise the "don't ask, don't tell" policy for homosexuals in the military, have revealed that they are gay.

The three - army Brigadier-Generals Keith Kerr and Virgil Richard, and Rear-Admiral Alan Steinman of the Coast Guard - said the policy had been ineffective and undermined the military's core values - truth, honour, dignity, respect and integrity.

Hiding a dangerous mental disease is not honorably serving one's country. Anyway, it's not about the individual right or even ability to serve; it's about those non-perverts who have had a trust betrayed. Of course people in the Western world in general today no longer have such trust in members of the same sex. "Gendercest" at work.

Being black, or left-handed, or blonde are not peversions. "Gay" behaviour is.

The fact that the terms "homosexual" and hetrosexual" even exist in the contsxt that they do attests to how language can be peverted to invent illogical concepts and use them to enslave the popular mind. Without the complementary aspect, there cannot be any sexuality - so the term is rendered meaningless. (What the "gays" do, chould be called intercourse, carnal knowledge, etc.; to call it sex is outright dishonest.) So, yes the 'perverts are trying to steal sex from us. Through "gendercest", they have already broken the bonds that men used to have with one another.

If the cyberstalker stays away, there'll be no soap opera!

I do, however, reserve the right to take umbrage at any jackass that claims that the pampered homosexuals have anything in common with someone like Rosa Parks!

I beg your pardon, sir.

The Coast Guard is that hard nucleus around which the Navy forms in time of war.

The CG sustained a higher per capita rate of combat deaths than any service in WWII. Most died running the LCVP's that landed troops in Normandy.

In addition to the active missions the CG serves 24/7, we add maritime warfare and ASW to our missions when war is declared, aiding our Navy breatheren in their transition from peacetime responsibilities to a wartime footing.

I'm certain that if foreign intelligence agencies wanted to exploit these targets, they would have been perfect - especially the married ones.

BTW: The obvious charge that all three of these men are guilty of is lying on official government documents. Each held a security clearance of Top Secret or higher. The question on the form is pretty clear. "Are you a homosexual?". Clearly they all answered in the negative.

I do not read the Bible. I make my own decisions based on what I know and have learned. You should be thanking God these men served in defense of YOU, so you could say they are sinners.
