I was against this guy from day one. I saw him for what he is. He must be removed from his position, the sooner the better. It looks like we will have to wait until 2013 to do so, if we are fortunate.
He is bent on destroying our military by making it so PC (more than it is) that if we got into a head to head fight with the Netherlands, it would be a toss-up to see who wins..
The Repubs in the Senate should block any legislation the Dems try to pass, except extensions of the current tax rates.
It will be worse than that. If the swishers get to act openly and with impunity, our military will turn into a protected haven for their misfits and will drive off our manly men - and it will literally destroy our military. I pray to God this will not happen.
Before Gates was called to DoD by Pres. Bush and then held over by Obama (that should tell you something), he was president of Texas A&M as the PC-propagating tool of the Bush family, in particular of Poppy Bush, who wants to make over A&M, where his library is, into a kind of Yale West. (A&M is an old agricultural and military school, and could not be more different from Yale and all it stands for.)
