Barf is right.

I think they should be banned. I think though, if we're going allow gays in the military, let them serve openly. The "don't ask, don't tell" policy is an exercise in hypocritical denial. We know they're there but we just don't pretend to see them - if they don't come out of the closet. People shouldn't be forced to lie about who they are. As I indicated, I'm traditional about homosexuality and I think the military should go back to the old policy. But if they don't, drop don't ask, don't tell - its an insult to people's intelligence as well as common sense.

I would hope that even in a liberal toilet like Maine there are plenty of decent people left who will tell Collins that she better not help the sodomites and the Democrats foist their sick agenda on the US military.

polls suggesting that as many as 79 percent of Americans believe gays should be able to serve openly in the armed forces.

Personally, I'd like to see those polls because I think if that was reality the gay community would be shouting it from the rooftops. However, even IF this were true, my guess is they didn't poll anyone actually IN the military. IMO, they're the ones who's opinions matter here.

I have a long understanding and appreciation of the terrible all-embracing hold that this vice can have on a man and an even greater conviction that one should move heaven and earth to prevent any soul from being sucked into the homosexual vortex.

Why is it important to know what a person does with their genitals to the military? Fight the enemy and keep your sex preferences to yourself.

Senator Susan Collins

How did the MSM miss the Senator Susan Collins - (R) part? 

Collins is just another insurance policy why no senator, past or present will be elected to the WH, thank Heavens.

This kind of stuff is really going to hurt her in her re-election fight against uberliberal Tom Allen. She has made too many mistakes that are going to keep the base from even holding their noses and voting for her. Shes going to be a goner in 08 I think. Im a Mainer and the few conservatives up here are at the end of our ropes with her. BTW, lots of rumors up here about her sexual preferences.
