I am disgusted and ashamed at what our government has done to our military.

Who’d have guessed there would come a day when the Boy Scouts had tougher standards than the military?

We might as well make everything COED now. Since there is no real good way to separate the fags from the normal people. Why not let the straight guys check out the women since the fags get to check out the straight men.

Even children know being gay is Queer..

In Obama’s upside down world, this is a positive. He caters to the far left while weakening the US military and increasing casualties to justify further US withdrawals.

No matter what Gates, Mullen, high ranking poofters and the RATS & RINOS in the Senate and House say, this is going to hurt our military.

He is a Saudi puppet and dead American troops please the saudi king and islam. The Saudis and Islam bought the white hut for $700 million in 2008. The same saudis who fund al qeada.

The American public has no clue as to the saudi investments and deals in ALL 6 US TV networks which own all the channels on TV. I try to tell people here but they think AL Waleed Fox is their friend or they think it is a big joke becaus ethey put the TV clicker ahead of liberty.

People need to stop whining and the stupid pink/gay jokes and start thinking how to turn this around.

Reid said on National TV that 70% thought it would be NO problem! POS.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

There will be serious negative effects.

[jazusamo]

Amen to that.

This is just the beginning of this war, not the end.

The Marines already have gays. Nothing new here. You can create, repeal, whatever any rule you want but it won't change the central fact about gays in the Marines: if they are open about it and in a Rifle Company, a grunt, they will be hazed/transferred out to a non-combat support role just as females would be.

Grunts will always be combat effective.

RE :”(CNSNews.com) - 66.5 percent of U.S. Marine combat forces surveyed by a special Defense Department working group said that putting homosexuals in their units would hurt their effectiveness in the field, and 47.8 percent of Marines in combat units specifically said putting homosexuals in their units would hurt their effectiveness “in an intense combat situation.” The U.S. Congress voted last week to repeal the law—commonly known as Don’t Ask, Don’ Tell—that barred homosexuals from serving in the military.”

Democrat's big lame duck win, big celebration on Maddows MSNBC show tonight. The reason they were able to pull this off is that Obama/gates/MSM were able to shape public opinion by only presenting only one side to the public, the homos side. There was no real (bad sounding) argument made against it repeated over and over, even on FNC. I remember in 1993 when Clinton tried this All Hell broke loose in the MSM and he backed off. This time the media and even many Republicans, went along.

To make this backfire on Democrats will require lots of stories of how the implementation is not working, and the leaking of the sensitivity training materials to the alternative media much like what was done with Obama-care.

...A pause to remember a great leader America once had. America has no such leaders now.

Blah blah blah ... just think how nicely the barracks and chow halls will be decorated, though. /sarc
