AP/CNS News ^ | 1/28/11 | Lolita C. Baldor, Pauline Jelinek

Pentagon leaders preparing for a new culture of gays serving openly in the military are serving notice that discrimination will not be tolerated.

Defense Secretary Robert Gates also directed his policy staff in a memorandum to move ahead carefully, but expeditiously, to end the 17-year-old "don't ask, don't tell" policy instituted during the Clinton administration.

Officials said they will complete implementation plans for the new policy by next Friday and will commence training in February.

Obama’s got his man in there to corrupt the military just like his men are corrupting the whole rest of the USA. If I was a military man then I would go a-wall over this.

To think that we are now saying to fighting men that they have to share bunks, sleeping bags, showers and have to now put up with men holding hands and kissing on base is truly the most disgusting thing this admin has done.

Allowing them in the military doesn't automatically mean proper military bearing will be thrown out the window. Give that at least a month or two.

"The health care costs of female soldiers and their ineffectiveness in combat, to this day, has been squashed and ingored as a scandal of huge proportion."

In my later Naval service (75-86), it was already a problem with unwarranted harassment complaints, unexpected or intential pregnancies to get out of deployment, and the females needing the upper-body strength of their male counter-parts to complete certain tasks. With years of the proper propaganda training, it has become to be understood as the norm. But the problems remain to this day. The CNO, DOD, and joint chiefs just ignore it for their own political careers.

Can't wait for the first problems to occur on our subs. Just what we need with bambi and gates further downsizing our military, is women on Tridents. Do any of you know how large those boats are and how many places there are to "get it on"? I'm a simple aviation sailor, but even I know the stress our "bubbleheads" go through on their undersea patrols. Now think about a much smaller attack sub, with men and women in even closer proximity. A closed door while off-duty is all it will take. Then what? Have to service for the pregnant sailor? What about "hot-racking"? What about having a Doctor who knows gyn/ob?

Interestingly, I've read where Israel gave up on women in combat positions because of the above problems.

Worse,this gay issue will be the undoing of our military, for so many reasons stated so many times. It is unsolvable due to limited space on ships. Different heads (bathrooms) for men, women, gays, lesbians, bi-sexuals on a submarine or small destroyer? Really? How will that work? Someone explain it to this old shellback.

I forgot about that. However, Congress can always change it, if they haven't already. That would be a tough one if not.

So your point may give an out for those who don't want to "sh*t, shower, and shave" with queers. Yes, I said the word queer. Sue me.

Not so hard...(pun intended)! Just give a wink, swish with your hand, and bend-over smartly. How tough could that be?

Who in their right mind would want to preside over this mess?

You don’t want to know, but I can think of a few. Quite a few landmarks to reach. The first lady, can’t you just imagine, a feathered pink boa a thong, a song, and a throng. Talk about the need for a lightning strike.

How are gays going to get there significant other enrolled in Deers,ID card etc since you either need to be married or a dependent minor (and from experience I can tell you that the paper work is analyzed)?

Also, the US Government has created a defacto "civil union" through the use of this for federal employees.

This defangs the DOM Act for federal employees and probably active duty members in the very near future.

Exactly. Open homosexual relationships would have more and unequal rights in regard to behavior. It will be interesting how it will go with open showers for both sexes. What? What do I mean? Well, if my son or daughter has to shower with an open, avowed, homosexual/that may leer and make them uncomfortable, then opposite sexes must have that same right. Right? I mean, the uneasiness of comingling sexes is the primary reason for separating the genders for toiletry matters, right?

“...the rest of the GOP are cowards, nothing but cowards as is most of talk radio and those so called TV show hosts like Hannity.”

Talk Radio sounds like the Fox financial network, with all this useless talk about the national debt ceiling on every program. They don’t ever confront the elephant in the room, political correctness, and that is deliberate.

“I get tired of the propagandized false headlines.”

Not only that, we have to play Twister to figure out what the story means. The words “rolls out” give it away here, because they are giving the impression that this is new, instead of warmed over Stalinism.
