“”Don’t cry,” a 21-year-old specialist, one of the lieutenant’s confidants” said.

I bet he is happy to serve under him. I love it when they put in all the straight lines for me.

[Rappini]

Well I guess you know what’s next. I guess I can marry that Horse I saw the other day she sure was cute a little on the tall side but what the hell.

Shuffling between meetings at his outpost in eastern Afghanistan on Saturday night, the 27-year-old officer kept popping his head into the main office to catch a glimpse of Fox News's coverage of the Senate debate

Sure glad this moron was giving full attention to his mission over there.

[Irish Queen]

I call the story balderdash.

[madprof98]

Rapture, eh? What kind of people pay to get this propaganda delivered to their homes?

[Chuck N]

Don’t cry. Now the law pertaining to Sodomy in the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) does not apply to you. You can do anything you want now. The Senate, the President and the Military Brass all know this is a “great day” for our war-fighters...Next they need to overturn the laws in place that restrict all deviant behavior. Wasn’t that the message just sent to our troops and the world? Idiots. Wikileaks is the tip of the iceberg for these politically correct fools. You think a gay is loyal to serve or loyal about trolling for more deviant sexual contact. Hey Joe Lieberman...why are you smiling so much about this? You moron. Now Obama can appoint an openly gay CNO, Commandant and Joint Chief and they will obey Obama’s commands to wage war against the US heterosexual population.

§ 925. Art. 125. Sodomy
(a) Any person subject to this chapter who engages in unnatural carnal copulation with another person of the same or opposite sex or with an animal is guilty of sodomy. Penetration, however slight, is sufficient to complete the offense.
(b) Any person found guilty of sodomy shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.

The stakes were also high for the specialist. His brother is gay and had vowed to join the Air Force if the policy were repealed this year. Their father is also gay, which made attending military events somewhat awkward for the family. "It just made for a weird situation," he said
His brother and father are gay and he thinks the military events are awkward... Really? This has got to be a joke.

His brother is gay...Their father is also gay

"I feel that I'm passed over [for promotion] because I am gay."

West Point Army captain who resigned from active duty this spring after wrestling for years with deprivation, loneliness and half-truths.

Speechless, with a sick feeling in the pit of my gut.

"The majority of younger, rank-and-file guys will be fine with it," said Marine Capt. Tom Garnett, who is straight and a reservist at a Virginia law school. "But we are a conservative service, and one angry Marine makes a lot more noise than 30 ambivalent Marines."

There will not be 30 aqmbivalent Marines. I've rarely encountered a Marine who was ambivalent about anything. More likely, they will be seething with quiet anger.

By the 2012 elections we'll know the impact repealing DADT has had in each branch of military service. I don't think it is the loud, angry people who will teach us. It will be the quiet ones with families who just might not sign those reenlistment papers next time.

If someone came down from another planet and just watched our media they would imagine that fully half of our population was homosexual. And they would probably wonder where all of the babies were coming from.

[silverleaf]

Oh Jeez

Want to bet NO ONE will be asking but a whole loy of drama queens will be TELLING. The quavering lip Lieutenant obviously had an enlisted “confidante”

eeeww

Since, DumBO has made sure I have time off from pursuing a wage, I have time to become resident in other states for the purpose of ensuring certain people have no ability to destroy the country.

In that vane, how long must I live in Maine to establish residency to vote?

[Kakaze]

This story is a Steaming Pant load!

The end is nigh.....

Isn't this a great example of American values to share with Afghans and Iraqis. I am sure the Muslims will want to be our friends now that they know the fundamentals of our western morals, and renewed willingness to surrender their warring ways to a bunch of girly men with guns.

[killermosquito]

What’s going to happen to these gay guys when they start wearing eye liner and lipstick while on duty?

[markomalley]
