When Navy Lt. Gary Ross and his partner were searching for a place to get married, they settled on a site in Vermont, in part because the state is in the Eastern time zone.

That way, the two men were able to recite their vows before family and friends at the first possible moment after the formal repeal of the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy. Just after midnight Tuesday, the partners of 11 years were married.

Now if any seaman doesn’t “respect” and “celebrate” the homosexual’s perverted act,he will be up before a Captain’s Mast or if he doesn’t shout to the Heavens that homosexuals rule
***********************
I think they only switched the DADT around.

If a gay sees someone with a bible or cross (whatever identifier) they shouldn’t ask their opinion on homosexuality. The Christian, Jew (whatever faith)had better keep their faith and beliefs quiet and underwraps.

They unmuzzled one group only to muzzle another. Pulled one group in and pushed the other out.

Next they will be legally marrying animals and (then) having live sex with them on their "altars" after the civil or legal ceremonies. Don't laugh. If this can come (sorry, no pun intend), than anything can transpire.

All bets are OFF.

Unfathomable by any of the Founding Fathers, the greats like General Eisenhower or Patton or LeMay.

Every time the eunuchs acquire military power, the results are the same.

 

The truth about homosexuality and the Nazi Party

"...Ludwig Lenz worked at the Sex Research Institute in Berlin, which was destroyed by Hitler's Brown Shirts in 1933 likely because its records, including 40,000 confessions from members of the Nazi Party, would have exposed the sexual perversions of Nazi leadership. Lenz said that "not ten percent of the men who, in 1933, took the fate of Germany into their hands, were sexually normal...."

There is nothing long with totally incorruptible and open about your conservative positions.

You just won’t be electable if society is not perfectly aligned with your positions.

I’d prefer my politicians to be just as uncorruptible conservative, but not suicidally so.

I’d like to see them get elected so they can make the changes that are beneficial for society.

What does a Palin parrot believe Sarah Palin thinks of this ‘marriage’? After all she did submit a re-tweet of pro-abort lesbian & Palin supporter, Tammy Bruce in which Bruce was happily approving of DADT being phased out. Surprised Palin didn’t drop in on this wedding like she did recently at another.

Are we talking gays serving in the military or are we talking gay marriage?

Gays serving in the military.. I’m not so sure that can be reversed, at least not until it starts to show problems for the straight people getting their rights stepped on.

If a president tried to reverse it, it would probably land in the SC, no? A president couldn’t EO or declare *no women in the military*. Gays are now openly serving in the military and I can’t see how it can be changed now. (I don’t know, but it would seem so)

As far as gay marriage— some say feds, some say states rights. I see problems with both. States rights— what happens moving between states?

If we leave it to the feds, they will shove it down our throat no matter—just like health care— just like every other thing where they assume their opinion is more valid and intelligent than their constituents. A president can’t do it on his own.

I’m leaning towards leaving it to the churches. Gov’t only recognizing and dealing with civil unions for all citizens. Marriage belongs to the church.

Anyhow, the whole thing is a big old mess—looks like the mister cursing the extension cord after I’ve used it for yard work.

You and me both friend. You and me both. God will deal with both of these people. His Word says it is an abomination before Him. He will deal with them at the Great White Throne. This man is no man. He is a wimp.

Nice. Ex-navy here. How far behind do you suppose your service is? Hm?

This whole thing angers me beyond words, and your comment didn’t help any.

PS: THIS is Obama’s legacy and comdemns his sorry soul to the fires of hell. He and his fellow dimocrats who hate the Lord Jesus Christ will burn in eternal fires of the Lake of Fire for all time. Their time is coming. Of that I am sure. GOD will deal with them. THAT I AM SURE!

Never leave your buddy’s behind.

And who says grammar is no fun? The plural may be one thing but the possessive is certainly funny. Plural possessive would just make him a promiscuous manwhore.

Ugh. The only way that picture could be so much worse is if it were a Marine officer. Even worse than that, both...

We should go to pre-DADT policy and BAN ALL HOMOSEXUALS. That would make military life much easier.

Hold all your calls, please, we have a winner.
