Yours is the rudest and most misguided post I have ever seen on FR.

People here are sometimes “too” thick!

DOES ANYONE HERE REALLY KNOW THE MEANING OF DADT?

DADT means that “serving the military” has NOTHING TO DO WITH GENDER ... SOLDIERS ENTER MILITARY SERVICE TO “SACRIFICE”, MEN AND WOMEN. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WHETHER YOU ARE GAY OR STRAIGHT!

The way you are all behaving indicates that you view DADT as DETERRENT to gay people to enter into service, WHICH IS A FAT OUT LIE!

GAYS AND STRAIGHT (male and female) HAVE ALL THE RIGHTS TO SERVE IN THE MILITARY. NO ONE SHOULD COMPEL THEM TO TELL WHETHER THEY ARE GAY OR NOT ... SIMPLY BECAUSE THE SERVICE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THEIR SEXUAL LEANING!

MILITARY SERVICE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH “SOLDIER MAKING OUT WITH ANOTHER SOLIDER”. Anyone doing that (gay or straight act) SHOULD BE PUNISHED especially during service!

Now, don’t start up with something that gay male or female might take advantage or even rape their fellow soldiers. That’s bull!

TO SENATOR MCCAIN: ONCE AND FOR ALL ... MAKE A STAND! WHAT IS YOUR REAL POSITION ON THIS ISSUE? AND PLEASE... MR. McCain. STOP EMBARASSING SARAH PALIN!

If McCain can temporize this issue until the new Congress, then more power to him. Surely it has been noticed that it would not be sufficient for the “open homo” crowd to drop the DADT parts of the US military code, because that would only make policy fall back on the older “no homos at all” policy. Something else specific has to take its place and NOTHING has been said about that something else specific. This is a fact that even John McCain, RINO that he is, can and will make hay about.

If committed homos really do want to serve, they are going to have to realize that being a GI means they aren’t supposed to be thinking with the wrong head. If they were serious about wanting to do it “right” instead of blindly rushing into it a la Bummercare, they ought to be asking to show their stuff in “black sheep squadrons” comprising solely homos and explicit don’t-cares. Then if the issue is nothing more fundamental than the uneasy race relations of the early 20th century, the “gay guns” will show a stellar performance. But one thing this is not is a valid civil rights issue. Being a GI means severely curtailed civil rights for the sake of national survival. The Constitution isn’t a suicide pact.

People who are mentally ill should not be permitted to serve in the military.

Homosexuality is a mental illness.

DADT should be repealed and go back to ask ‘em, if the answer is wrong, show ‘em the door.

And if they’re caught once in the service, at the very least a dishonorable discharge.

It’s not working very well. People are afraid to ask even when the homosexual is causing trouble.

No homosexuals should be in the military.

More BS. Two people (at least) on FR took the survey and it was entirely bogus. Will find the first hand reports tomorrow.

You’re pushing leftist agenda “gays in the military” crap and you’re a very recent signup.

RC here thinks homos in the military is a fine thing and service members will be happy if there are homos in the military.

Yeah?

You blamed Sarah Palin in Georgia’s election right?

Palin supported Handel. Yes.

Nathan Deal won the primary. Yes.

Handel didn’t run as Third Party candidate. Yes.

HANDEL GAVE HER SUPPORT TO DEAL. YEAH!

Nathan Deal won against the Democrat. Yes.

SO WHAT ARE YOU COMPLAINING ABOUT? IS NATHAN DEAL A GOOD GOVERNOR? COULDN’T ALSO BALANCE A BUDGET EH?

SO DEAL WITH DEAL!

[BTW, Palin’s Senatorial Pick won in Georgia!]

They should repeal DADT and enforce an outright ban on practicing homosexuals altogether.

You called me a liar. Personal attacks and name calling are against the rules. Would you like to spell out exactly how I lied—and exactly which RINO I voted for in the primary—or would you like me to hit abuse?

Yes but the electorate of AZ thought otherwise. To put it into context tho these same voters thought Big Sis would make a good gov. LOL, thx a bunch AZ voters. We all see you did your homework before casing your votes. Then they have the gall to whine about illegals overrunning their stinking state. You have the govt you RICHLY deserve.

I honestly thought this was the year McCain would be put out to pasture. His primary victory was a real disappointment. Now I’m just praying Miller can pull it out in AK. Murkowski comes across as the vindictive type. I could picture her voting with the Dems much of the coming six years, just to teach Miller supporters a lesson. I guess the majority gets the gov. they deserve. It’s pretty hard on the minority, though.

Juan’s just taking the first step back from his phony election year position on DA/DT. He’ll have no problem with rescinding the policy after a few more months pass.

“Don’t ask, don’t tell” has become “I’m telling you about it whether you want to hear it or not!”

Okey. “LIE” IS NOT A PERSONAL ATTACK! I REALLY BELIEVE THAT WHAT YOU’RE TRYING TO INSINUATE IS A “LIE”.

Go back to your comment about “how Palin “disgraced” your Georgia election”? For me, you’re sowing a “slimy” idea.

LESSON 101:

Question: What is the most dangerous Lie of them all?

Answer: A comtemptuous “statement” seemingly factual, “harmless”, “pleading” ... and yet there’s an evil motive underneath.

APPLICATION:

1. From A legendary book called “the Bible”:

The “Serpent’s Lie” to Adam against God!

2. Modern Day Example:

Rachel Maddow’s method of “attack”! THAT’S DEVIL’S LIE!

MY POINT:

IF YOU WANT TO SAY SOMETHING AGAINST SOMEBODY EG. PALIN ... SAY IT UPFRONT! AND NEVER USE A STRAWMAN!
