A lesbian Army captain sent home from Afghanistan after she was accused of an 'inappropriate relationship' with a sergeant was behaving like a 'love struck teenager' and undermining operations, a tribunal heard today.

Karen Tait, 29, who is claiming sexual discrimination against the Ministry of Defence and her commanding officer Lieutenant Colonel Deborah Poneskis, upset the chain of command with her 'sly and underhand' behaviour, the employment tribunal in central London heard.

...

The openly gay soldier, who started a sexual relationship with Sgt Caroline Graham before deployment with 4 Royal Military Police's 160 Provost Company, denies having any intimacy with her while on tour or allowing their relationship to affect her professional judgment.

...

The staff sergeant said the two 'selfish individuals were out for themselves' and Cpt Tait was a 'disgrace'.

Another experienced officer said they were 'so wrapped up in themselves it's nothing short of criminal'.

I'm telling you there are some stoopid “bath turds” running our country and dictating our laws. A homosexual fell in love with my boyfriend when I was younger and it was nothing but a huge drama and totally embarassing! I said it from the beginning that don't as don't tell repeal would not work. But the morons knew better. If I am in a fox hole fighting for my life, I do not want a homosexual who is in heat for someone in the next foxhole covering my back. Sorry for my anger, I'm just fed up with the PC cr@p in this country.

Homosexuality is just partner-assisted masturbation.

The irony is that in the US military queers now have a defined right to be “Openly Homosexual” but normal people do not have a defined right to be openly heterosexual.

Didn’t the general officers testify that this would happen?

Well now! That’s the original reason why they had the ban in the first place! Well well. Guess what! The original ban was right!

Undermining the operations?
NO, that would NEVER happen.
Homosexuals never behave in a manner unbecoming to military operational discipline, our fearless leaders say so.

Can I tell Gates and company “I told you so” yet, or do we have to wait until an American officer gets spanked for being stupid?

Her body says “Hillary!”

Her face says “Joe the mechanic down the street”.

So we send sexually immature adults into combat and they behave like sexually immature adults...

Well, junior enlisted and company-grade officers tend to be young, so you'll get situations like this one. But otherwise I get your point.

Consider that this situation happens virtually every day. Probably the only reason that we know about this one is that the CO is a female and she’s not intimidated by the counter-claim of “sexual harrassment.” The Captain is going to get booted, probably. But how many times will a male CO balk at bringing the full weight of his authority down on a fraternization case involving lesbians?
