This was put in motion long before Obama...the last 3 presidents are all culpable.

True enough and if we're going to look the other way while a republican is in office, we're just as culpable.

Correct me if I am wrong but did not “General” Casey say that the worst thing about the Ft. Hood Massacre was the blaming of Islam for the murders and not the loss of patriotic Americans. I lost a friend in those murders. Now we see PC running amuck in the military. Who are these pc bastards and where did they come from. Combat is for males, not females. OIF vet

The administration continues to find ways to humiliate and feminize our military.
This is one of the stupidest things they have done.

At what point does someone with, oh, three or four stars stand up and say NO? What criminal or immoral or utterly stupid edict will finally force MEN in the military to act like MEN? What’s it gonna take—an order to fire on pro-lifers saying the rosary in front of a Planned Parenthood clinic? taking rumba lessons to learn how to follow when your partner happens to be same-sex? There’s just not a whole lot that tops this for absurdity.

This is outrageous and needs to be stopped.

Hope Fox keeps the clip handy. It’s got the makings of a great ad.

Sad but true. Even Ford had a role in it. The service academies were forced to accept females on his watch? Jim Webb was still railing against it under Reagan (before his epiphany).

I’m sure the pregnant women are saying to themselves, “come on, is that all they have to do is one hour, make them wear it for a whole day, that would be more realistic.”

No dear, Realistic would be having something pressing their bladders 24/7, moving their center of balance so they would waddle and putting on 20 or 30 extra pounds of weight, have their skin stretched, their chest muscles feel sore and swollen (fake boobs don’t do that). And to top it off, they could start each morning for 4 or 5 months with vomiting and no be able to look at raw meat or eggs without a continuation of the up-chucking.
This is not about having men experience what women go through. This is about making them look like fools. Hey, it works.

How are they going to handle the transgenders? The headlines should read: PC DESTROYS THE MILITARY.

No wonder the rest of the world is laughing at us.

She should apologize to men in uniform. How about if a dude officer would tell Hillary: I wanted to smash some cancer in her breast

This is horse crap straight out disrespect for a reasonable questioning. Santorum never said he wanted to change things, he just questioned.

A military man has a specific duty assigned because if that duty is under fire (say, a medic has to go get a soldier), he is the one everyone will look toward to accomplish this because he is the guardian of those skills.

However, communists have established a stealth system of holding hostage other soldiers and protesting and not doing the job, encouraging cowardice and union like behavior wishing to change job on a whim when it becomes too hard.

Transgenderism follows the same pattern of switching also gender depending on the demands of the task ahead. It’s all masked as “they are just like us” when in fact it is a behavior that is completely irresponsible, ie. a mental failure, something that proves they are not like us.

THis is the gist of the PC language. First they go for the genders and then they go for the real thing: incompetence accross the board being acceptable behind claims of consciousness, antislavery and aristocratics.

Although I've never read anything about it before, it seems this program has been around awhile. Who are the big brains that come up with these wacko ideas? It looks like they are always looking for more nonsensical ways to waste taxpayer money!

From the article-

"Developed by the Army in 2008, the course includes aerobics classes, pool sessions and classroom studies on the physiology of pregnant women. The NCOs learn special exercises for pregnant women, who shouldn’t push themselves too hard or participate in high-impact activities such as snowboarding, bungee jumping or horse riding, York said."
