"If the law is changed, successfully implementing repeal and assimilating openly homosexual Marines into the tightly woven fabric of our combat units has strong potential for disruption at the small unit level, as it will no doubt divert leadership attention away from an almost singular focus of preparing units for combat," the Marine commandant, Gen. James Amos"

This is just the hate-America left’s way of trying to undermine US troop moral. Has nothing to do with “fairness and equality”.

No doubt about it. This is an attempt at the complete moral destruction of America’s fighting forces. This is also one more attempt at the beat down and defeat of the morale of our Troops by the slobbering military hating Leftists.

...it will no doubt divert leadership attention away from an almost singular focus of preparing units for combat..."

This is an expression not just of casual doubt, but of substantial doubt _ if not a conviction - that the very purpose of the military force provided in the Constitution will be seriously degraded. It makes as much sense as allowing hemophiliacs to serve in the infantry.

It also represents something more than a subtle attack on our miitary forces.
The anti-American bomb throwers are on a roll and for the near term appear unimpeded.
