Grow up and quit bashing Newt. Jim Robinson has requested that you support your candidate and stop bashing other Conservatives.

What is so hard about just supporting Santorum while stopping your bashing of Newt? You bash Newt more than you bash Romney or Zero.

Good grief, grow up already. And chill. Just put your energy into bashing Romney or Zero instead of bashing Newt.

Asking a man to keep it in his pants is too much to ask especially since that’s the reason cited why women shouldn’t be there?

What about asking women to stop spreading their legs. How about that? You didn't think of that did you? Or what about asking women to stop getting pregnant so that the men in their unit have to take up the slack?

Are you retarded AND gay? You don’t understand English and you won’t leave me alone. My wife says I’ve been taken for near 40 years and I say I’m an old fashioned guy who has no feminine side to get in touch with so you’re out of luck.

“like marching 90 kilometers while carrying a heavy load”

Are you kidding me or what? You really don’t know HOW small Israel is. The distance between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem is barely 60 km... There are no soldiers marching back and forth between the two cities... :)

Your post is Nonsensical. Point is to quit bashing Newt. Learn to bash Romney or Zero.

No, I meant it both ways. Well, you could always tell them to have abortions couldn’t you if pregnancy bothers you so. I think the problem however is totally solved if it’s kept zipped up.

The Israelis crapcanned the women on the front line thing after the last blowup because they found the jihadis fought harder, more viciously and were absolutely brutal to any captured female Israelis. Unintended consequences.

Sorry, I don’t take orders from you or anybody else for that matter. But it is my fervent wish that I annoy you to the point of you going back to Huff Post or wherever the hell it is they censor speech routinely.

When are you going to start bashing Mitt Romney or Zero? Why only bash Newt?

“Well then, if Rick feels that attractions between men and women on the battlefield can compromise a mission, he needs to ban gays and lesbians in combat because it would have the same effect. Gee, didn’t hear him voice his concern on this combat scenario, just the heterosexual relationships. Give me a break, he was referring to women’s hormones and emotions.”

Methinks PRick is obsessed by sex ... he’d like to regulate every aspect of man-woman relationship :)

“The notion that college education is a cost-effective way to help poor, low-skill, unmarried mothers with high school diplomas or GEDs move up the economic ladder is just wrong.”

From Santorum’s book, “It Takes a Family: Conservatism and the Common Good.”

“The idea is that the state doesn’t have rights to limit individuals’ wants and passions. I disagree with that. I think we absolutely have rights because there are consequences to letting people live out whatever wants or passions they desire.”

Yea that would solve the problem. However, every person in the military has a sex drive. A drive so powerful that it often overrides common sense. It doesn't matter what people are told. It doesn't matter what people's orders are. Men and women are going to engage in sex no matter what. Despite the fact it's only a few people their actions effect entire units.

LOL, I was standing nose to nose with union thugs when you were suckling your Mothers breast. I’ve been on this board for 14 years and a conservative for 30 years prior to that. And I have for that entire time used my own name to post my views. You are an insolent little twerp, I’ll give you that but like most you hide behind an acronym because you don’t have the courage of your convictions. Get lost.

Don’t tell me. Tell the senior member of the IDF Personnel Directorate who made the statement.

Apparently Newt didn’t take my advice to attack someone from the right instead of the left.

I guess this means we’ll be hearing more talk of why it is ‘inhumane’ not to give local councils the ability to determine whether illegals should stay here or not.

Don’t you find it utterly appalling that both MItt Romney and Zero completely misunderstand modern warfare?

Free Republic is dedicated to making sure both Mitt Romney and Zero are not the Commander in Chief in Janunary 2013 for a multitude of reasons, one of which includes their complete misunderstanding of modern wafare.

Down with Liberal Romney and Liberal Zero, on this we agree.

As a former Gingrich supporter...

Historically, how many dominate military powers have sent women to the front lines?

“The best fighting force is an all male one, possessed with testosterone, comraderie and physical strength, without opposite-sex diversions.”

And also as Santorum bravely pointed out, without same-sex diversions.

I guess you’re the only one in the planet who didn’t hear his response to the gay military guy during the debate. Rick would end the repeal of DADT

And so, it really shouldn’t be an issue then.
