Log Cabin Republicans Take DADT to Supreme Court
The Christian Post ^ | Nov. 8, 2010 | Stephanie Samuel

Posted on 11/08/2010 4:04:48 PM PST by La Enchiladita

Log Cabin Republicans petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to revive the legal battle over "don't ask, don't tell" after federal appeals court allowed the ban to stay in place indefinitely.

On Friday, attorneys for the Log Cabin Republicans filed an appeal in hopes of finally overthrowing the ban on openly homosexual troops serving in the military. The gay and lesbian group had expressed opposition to last week’s 9th Circuit Court of Appeals’ decision to indefinitely uphold the 1993 law.

In a Nov. 1 statement, Log Cabin Executive Director R. Clarke Cooper said, “Log Cabin Republicans is disappointed that Don’t Ask Don’t Tell will continue to burden our armed forces, undermine national security and limit the freedom of our men and women in uniform. “

As Michael Medved once noted, “It used to be that homosexuality was ‘the Love that dare not speak its name’ now it’s ‘the Love that won’t shut up.’”

I’d say piss on ‘em, but they’d probably enjoy it. Scum of the earth.

It seems to me that the Log Cabin Republicans are to Republicans as Bishop Gene Robinson is to Christianity.

I just wish they’d go away. To define yourself first as a sexual pervert is just plain wrong. And to try to poke Conservatives in the eyes with their perversion is deplorable. Why don’t they start their own party and go away?

I cannot tell you how tired I am of the back and forth of
this ridiculous issue. I think the military personnel themselves
should be the only ones to have a say, since they have to live
with the consequences of any changes. Geez!

And GATES?...don’t EVEN get me started!

Yes, but if that were the case then DADT and the supposed ban on women serving in frontline combat units would persist indefinitely, and the Left simply cannot allow that.

A slyer group would have backed off at this point waiting for a more opportune time, but no the Logs want to go boldly before the USSC now. So let them, and I think the GOP agrees. More likely a snowball can be kept in a furnace than would this get a nod from any of the Conservative 5 (even Kennedy) because it’s so, so stupid to put political correctness before national survival. Even one of the liberals might upchuck at this one.

Unfortunately liberals are all demented, especially those on the supreme court. Nothing worse than an idiot with a high IQ.

They are not true conservatives if they support this immoral, unnatural, and disease spreading behavior.

Sending open homosexual troops with this new special homo-free-speech right to patrol Muslim countries sounds like a disaster to me. I guess when they fly the next set of planes into our buildings we can ask liberals :"Why do they hate us. Wait, I think I know. Whose STUPID idea was this?"

Remember the prince's homo-lover in Braveheart telling the evil King9the father) that he is 'skilled in the arts of war' and the king throws him out the window?? I still love that scene.

And he had that babe french wife that he wouldnt touch, I love when she says to her maid :”Amour”. Then the evil King Patrick McGoohan (who I always liked) throws his homo-lover out the window. Talk about PC out the window. Hollywood would go on strike if someone tried that in a movie today.

Supposedly they removed part of the scene where Longshanks refers to him as a sodomite; as it was, “gay” groups were very upset that theatre audiences were often applauding/laughing at the scene that was left in...
