This is too damn much to ask of young straight men and women.

...or their parents. What parent would support their child entering a military where they could be victimized by sexual perverts?

Republicans in Connecticut ought to put up their own Senate candidate in 2012 and not hitch their wagon to this “maverick”. Good riddance to unreliable “friends”. Lieberman should be 2 years and out..

Apparently at least some are gay or bi - judging from their comments.

Would you be flabbergasted if you were to learn that Lieberman was gay?

Sooo ...

Is there something about Lieberman that we haven't asked and he isn't telling?

I have my suspicions, too.

You’ve both made excellent, valid points and I am at a loss to explain the drive that’s pushing some military poo-bah’s to get in the forefront of this unconsionable change in our military, which is NOT supposed to be about social experiments.

Are Mullins, Gates and the CG admiral brown nosers or closeted homosexuals themselves? Mullins smugly told McCain and others he knew of homosexuals he severed with -— how wonderful! - and that they were mighty fine sailors -— again, how wonderful!

What are the our brave troops to do in the line of fire when they’re serving with homosexuals all bloodied-up and he is HIV positive? Or are the Armed Forces supposed to incur more expense by testing the blood of the homosexuals once a month “against their CIVIL rights”?

Possibly. I am so furious.

If this damn lameduck votes on DADT before it’s adjourned.....

Even the AF is against it. Only the brown-nosing Mullins and Gates sell-out's are for this along with the Coast Guard.

Unfortunately, the Chief of Naval Operations has sold his soul for repeal of DADT.

Thanks very much. I knew there was another, but I didn’t catch his name. so I omitted him. Navy, right along with Mullins. And they think women and pregnancies problematic? Sheeesh. Wait until the homosexuals and their openly homosexual queens go at it.

Hello Onyx, these Senators are something else. My goodness. God forbid they might have to work until the Christmas Holiday......shivers. That is so pathetic and I can’t believe that the American public stands for this. They want to be done work before 17 December? Really????? Most folks get 24th off this year (if they are lucky). Obviously on the topic of the agenda, I am glad that they will run out of time, but it just makes me so angry when they whine about losing some of their vacations. UGH!!!!

There can be only one reason he knew them, he knew them, else why did he not obey his oath?

“...All libs are phoneys - even RINOs and “Blue Dog” Democrats...”

A socialist...is a socialist...is a socialist.

Anyone who thinks these bastards can be trusted is naive, misguided, and incredibly stupid.

Their allegiance is not to the U.S. - their allegiance is to something other and incredibly subversive.

The sooner we realize this and treat this as the war that it is, the sooner we can start taking our country back.

That he spoke at the Republican convention means nothing. At the end of the day, he’s one of “them”, and always will be.

Right. I agree with you on both counts, but want this lameduck to adjourn. They have no business voting on important issues that can wait for the next congress, and DADT is most certainly one of those issues that MUST wait.

The START Treaty is another one that MUST wait.

“Would you be flabbergasted if you were to learn that Lieberman was gay?”

Yes, it would. I doubt that is his motivation. Lieberman was one of the very few in the Democratic party that on rare occasions actually acted like he had a brain.

His stance on Homosexuals in the military is baffling to me. Why is he suddenly swinging to the hard left? Is he afraid he will lose another primary like he did last time and have to run as an independent again? So, is this real or just postering to applease the left wing of his party and its base in his home state?
