I am opposed to profanity on this board - so there is nothing I have to say at the present moment.

>> “This is one of those moments in our history when we stepped up and squared our policies with the values this nation was founded upon.”

Which value is that? Sodomy or just good fashion sense?

Soon the uniforms will be modified accordingly.

Over the hill boy's, lets lets flank 'em and surprise 'em from the rear!

This will destroy the US military, just as it has destroyed the Israeli, UK, Australian, Canadian and Germnan armed forces.

So now that this has passed, I think they should make separate platoons of only openly homosexuals. This should be the first platoon in, as no one else would want to be in front of them.

Also, their uniforms should be as flamboyant as possible, for as Robin Williams said, "If you are going to clash, then clash".

Unemployment is nearing 10%, the country is broke and and all Stinky Harry Reid can think about is homosexuals and illegal aliens. Weird.

Lawmakers voted 63 to 33 to [incorporate a Gay Military.]

The U.S. Senate is of lower character than any high-security US prison.

The utter demolition and incineration of the Republic and its institutions continues unabated thanks to ZERO supposed "checks & balances."

I knew this would happen. I’m slightly miffed, but not really outraged.

While what you say may be true, I will continue to support our military as an institution. I see no other option.

Ah yes, the plantiff whine of the globalist ... ‘America should be just like the rest of the degenerating world.’ Are your kneepads a bit too tight, cutting off circulation to your brain?

Marine Commandant General James Amos has stated several times that openly practicing homosexualism will kill Marines.

Any senator voting in support of DADT is knowingly and quite purposefully destroying and weakening America's military and is willfully contributing to the murder of Marines.

Names and States of any senator which vote in support of legislation to repeal DADT should be make public.

Dear Senator:

Before you vote on “Don’t Ask – Don’t Tell” you should be able to clearly answer the following:

“What does it mean to be openly gay in the military?”

By voting to repeal, it can probably be assumed that you are condoning consenting sexual encounters in the shower or the barracks.

It means that the gay lifestyle language and physical mannerisms may be displayed while in uniform and that ‘flippy’ salutes must be tolerated.

It means that cross dressing on off duty hours is acceptable when visiting social establishments on post.

And surely it means that any objection to the above will be met with instant litigation and possible charges brought against those in command.

Why else would this bill be necessary?

Senator, please explain to the American public how these possibilities may be addressed before you help democrats pass this ridiculous law.

If Reid is lucky, sometime in his life he’ll advance upward to merely have the description of ‘suck’.

"We are on the verge of ending 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' for good," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said after the vote "This is one of those moments in our history when we stepped up and squared our policies with the values this nation was founded upon."

First, DADT is not dead. The Congress can come back and address it next year.

Second, sorry Dingy, our precious country was not founded on queers and fagots.

I suspect ending DADT will have a profoundly negative affect on our military.

"Without this I would not be voting to repeal this," Webb said, holding up the report.

To start off with, we need a list of Republicans who voted for this. They all have to go.

Then we go after the Blue Dog Democrats, who pretend to be so very moral--except when they vote.

Then I now think it's confirmed that we have to get rid of the Senate leaders. They are failing in their leadership duties again, unless they told all the RINOs who voted for this that they would lose all their committee appointments. He's never done that before, so I seriously doubt whether he did it this time, either. I presume that means John Kyl, among others.
