I said:
"I don't think women belong in combat, or in "coed" prisons. It's just asking for trouble."

You replied:
"The purpose of putting women in the service in these siuations is paying dividends for the America hating socialists who pushed this agenda during the Clinton years.."

Yup. I don't think the goal was necessarily to destroy the military, (as someone else accused) but to generally push the whole idea of equality to ludicrous extremes... With that being their primary goal, they didn't worry themselves about the impact of their social engineering on something as bourgeois as our military.

They're motivated by the same sort of selfishness as the little girl or boy who insists on crashing the neighborhood "girls only" or "boys only" club. You're right... it's a psychological (as opposed to economical) socialism. Kinda like grade inflation to keep everyone feeling equal and cozy.

"What the army wants are heterosexual males in their late teens and early twenties who are in god physical shape."

; ) That's seriously mighty physical shape.

"There is a reason the armed services never wanted gays and women near front line combat. There is enough of a problem fighting a war without these other distractions. - Tom"

Exactly.

I'm going at it with a Lib on another board who claims Rumsfeld said that the prison abuse against the Iraqi's included rape and murder.

I have not heard that nor found any info here...anyone hear that?
