WEST POINT — Cadet Katie Miller said she couldn't listen to her comrades toss around the word "fag" anymore, and making up stories about fictional boyfriends was driving her crazy.

So Miller, a lesbian who ranks No. 9 in her class of future Army leaders, stepped out the closet last weekend and quit West Point.

"I thought I would have the strength to re-closet myself," said Miller, who was openly gay to her family and friends in high school. "I completely underestimated the personal toll it would have on me.

I suppose she’ll go back to her previous work as a cabinet builder.

Hmmmm... can you say "fraudulent enlistment"?

"...I completely underestimated the personal toll it would have on me..."
I realize that as a "lesbian", she's probably got a pretty self-indulgent personality and poor impulse control (low "sales-resistance"?), but West Point isn't really supposed to be "all about her" anyway is it? It's about duty to others. She must have been on sick call that day.

Now that she has outed herself, and is free to speak as she wishes, she will never ever have to hear the word ‘fag’ again.

Yeah. As if she'd never heard it before.

That is exactly what I thought. Once you give them that commission it is very expensive to fire them. I will grant that two years of free room, board and education are a lot of money, but that is factored in before the plebe ever enters. They know that a certain percentage will wash out for whatever reason. In this case, it is because she will not obey the (Clinton’s) rules.

ONE federal judge has overruled all the voters in California who passed a Constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage. Our betters are forcing us to accept this, no matter what we may think. If only your statement "the public doesn't have to accept this behavior in society" were true.

It is a mental illness that stems from sin. It absolutely is a sickness.

I’d like to see the congressman/woman/whatever or senator who nominated her be fined as well

She clearly lacks the emotional and mental strength and maturity to serve in the military. This is a good outcome, imho.

The only problem with talking about homosexuals is that you have to talk about homosexuality.

I don't remember where I heard about this poll, but people were polled on the words "gay" and "homosexual."
When discussing "gay" issues, those polled were more skiddish to admit they were against most parts of the gay agenda.
When it came to "homosexual" issues, people were straightforward in their complaints. They spoke out loudly against the homosexual agenda. Political correctness had no power.

Words have a subliminal messages. When discussing the homosexual agenda, call it what it is - the homosexuals agenda. People around you will wake up and understand what's really going on. They've been put to sleep with pretty words.

Same thing with "choice. " It's abortion. It's tearing a human infant into pieces while it's still alive. Call it what it is. Wake people up from their PC slumber.

West Point’s Cadet Honor Code reads simply that

“A cadet will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”

She’s violated it on multiple counts.

Good news. I don’t feel sorry for her at all.

If she's that good it's a shame that she's a deviant.
