Given what's come out of FL lately, anything political from the FL politicians should be viewed with a jaundice eye.

Ros-Lehtinen, along with House Republicans Christopher Shays of Connecticut and Jim Kolbe of Arizona

Lets, see. The last two are gay, who wants to bet that Ros-Lehtinen is a lesbian?

Wouldn't America's enemies love homosexuals to serve in the military? Actually, maybe it isn't such a bad idea. They don't reproduce.

I bet those new stryker vehicles would look positively lovely in new pastel colors.
How many gay men/women would stay/join vs how many straight soldiers would leave because of this decision. The military is not a place to play social engineering games. I am pretty sure the military's job is to make noise, break things, and hurt people. How would this affect cohesion and camaraderie? God bless the gays serving but there are some jobs some people aren't meant for.

Clearly these moronic twerps never had to share a shower with a raging queer.

My flame suit is on, and I am ready to be persuaded to change my mind, but I think this is one policy that may be ready to be tweaked. I am not 100% convinced that this policy (don't ask, don't tell) is the best we can do.

First of all, I will defer to active duty military on my opinion, but I think that when the military is kicking out interpreters (which we desperately need at this time) just because they are gay, that is a problem. I am for extremely strict sexual harassment guidelines (heterosexual and homosexual), and I can see the ban on homosexuals in a Navy, at sea, situation, but let's face it, even homosexuals are Patriotic Americans, and if they truly want to serve, why are we turning them away?

As I said, I am ready to be persuaded, but I spoke to my husband about this (former infantry in US Army), and he reluctantly agrees. Especially after the Air Force Academy scandals, what's the difference between sexually charged cadets going after females or males. Shouldn't we just punish wrong doers, and accept the good ones with praise, regardless of their sexual orientation?

The Don't ask don't tell policy never contravened the Law
which remains Homosexual behavior is Not consistent with military service. That being said I nver had any problems
serving alongside homosexuals.When they got stupid -or drunk
and made the mistake of trying to hit on me-- I beat the
fear of God into them. The Manuel for COurts -Martial
United States 1984(1994 edition ) is essentially what it was
when I was on active duty.AndHomosexual behavior is still a
freaking crime. (Articles 120 & 125. Are essentailly as they were when I was active duty.)

I'm sick of faggots and their "backers". With "pubs" like these, who needs "dems"?

Sgt. Robert Stout, 23, told The Associated Press. ``But if we have to stay here and hide our lives all the time, it's just not worth it.''

How long before this "bonedancer with Mr. Sphincter" is treated to a code red?

Republican lawmaker urging end to `don't ask, don't tell' policy

When I read the title I assumed some Republicans wanted to end don't ask - don't tell and go back to the old system of incarcerating homosexuals in the military. I'd be all for that. Clinton gave us DADT. All through the Clinton administration I read stories about the military being unable to meet recruitment quotas, and it continues today.

The ancient Greeks allowed this IIRC. I think there was even an effort made to assign boyfriends to the same units.

If we had all gay units and they seriesly kicked some Islamist butt, that ought to humiliate them permanently. That is, if they didn't enjoy it, instead.

Well, if you're gonna let KNOWN homosexuals lather up in the showers with heterosexuals, there is no justifiable reason for not letting the heterosexual men lather up with the heterosexual women (wives, mothers, daughters).

That integration of everybody would also apply to bathrooms, sleeping areas, etc.

And, of course, lesbians won't have any justification for arguing that they don't want to share these locations/facilities with heterosexual men either.

It really looks like a great plan for improving the quality and effectiveness of the military.

Not!

"We've tried the policy. I don't think it works. And we've spent a lot of money enforcing it,"

?? Were homosexuals paid to keep their mouths shut about their perverted lifestyles?

Ain't gonna' happen. Send this Republican in sheep's' clothing to a bath house. There's no reason to change policy, unless we make it tougher.

Ileana Ros-Lehtinen is a political paradox. She is a Cuban-American Woman Republican who is pro-open borders, pro-gay, pro-gun control, but very pro-life. Her portfolio of political stands hinders her ability to create a cohesive coalition. It is amazing that she could keeping on winning re-election.

Send this bimbo dyke back to Castro's Cuber He knew how to
prevent AIDs. Why so many American politicians are so intent upon sodomizing America is something makes me very ill.This Republicrat -is IGNORANT of the US Military-
IGNORANT of homosexuality-- And like my peers use dot say
"If you weren't there --Shut the F--- UP.The military is not some glorious social experiment. I weary of mere politicians who use it as such.
