California Congressman Duncan Hunter has shown consistent leadership on military social issues. In 1993 he supported “the question” about homosexuality that used to be on induction forms. Clinton dropped the routine question, but it can and should be restored at any time. In 2005 Hunter spearheaded efforts to halt Army violations of policy and law on the issue of women in land combat, but former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld intervened, allowing the situation to worsen.

“California Congressman Duncan Hunter has shown consistent leadership on military social issues.”

That about says it.

Hunter, a former military guy, is totally solid on this issue. Meanwhile, here’s Mitt Romney’s classic Kerry-esque answer to this question:

Cooper: Governor Romney, you said in 1994 that you looked forward to the day when gays and lesbians could serve, and I quote, “openly and honestly in our nation’s military.” Do you stand by that?

Romney: This isn’t that time. This is not that time. We’re in the middle of a war. The people who have...

Cooper: Do you look forward to that time, though, one day?

Romney: I’m going to listen to the people who run the military to see what the circumstances are like. And my view is that, at this stage, this is not the time for us to make that kind of...

Where do they stand/sit on the issue of cruising in public washrooms?

“Does this mean they will go AC/DC on us?”

In the Navy, can’t you see we need a hand.
In the Navy, come on, protect the motherland.
In the Navy, come on and join your fellow, man.
In the Navy, come on, people, and make a stand.
In the Navy, in the Navy.

They want you! They want you! They want you as a new recruit!

Sounds like Fred did on Laura Ingraham’s show dissembling about McCain Feingold

...and former Governor Mike Gravel (D-Ark) agreed that Selective Service should register young women.

Nice editing there at Human Events.

“California Congressman Duncan Hunter has shown consistent leadership on military social issues. In 1993 he supported “the question” about homosexuality that used to be on induction forms.”

Recruiter: Now, are either of you homosexuals?
John Winger: You mean like flaming? Or part time?
Recruiter: Well, it’s a question we have to ask of all our new recruits.
Russell Ziskey: No, we’re not homosexual, but we are *willing to learn*.
John Winger: Yeah, would they send us someplace special?
Recruiter: I’ll just put that as a ‘no’.

Classic!

I am so sick and tired of these “homosexual issues” taking a disproportionate amount of political time. Don’t the “homosexual activists” and the media and politicians have more important things to debate than this crap?

It is past time that we demand a stop to all of this. Let them live their sick little perverted lives and leave the rest of us alone. An emphatic NO to anything else they want, and let’s be done with it.

I’m tired of this nonsense. You’d think they make up a significant portion of our population. But since it’s about “sex” and “sizzle” the media can’t let it go.

Which means that he (isn’t against sodomy) he only opposes it for ‘political reasons’-see getting elected President of The United States!! He would (~insanely~) support homosexual behovior and all kinds of liberal policies, In My Humble Opinion!..

I suppose the phrase ‘smokin’ a fag’ may mean something a little different in the military.
