(Arlington, VA) Army Brigadier General Tammy Smith has become the first openly gay flag officer to come out while currently serving in the U.S. military. She was promoted to the rank of Brigadier General in a private ceremony which took place today at the Women’s Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery. BG Smith received her stars from her wife, Tracey Hepner.
“For years, gay and lesbian generals and admirals were forced to hide their families in order to protect their careers. It is a great day for our military and for our nation when this courageous leader is finally able to recognize her wife for her support and sacrifice in the same way that all military families should be recognized for their service to our country,” said Sue Fulton, a 1980 West Point graduate and member of the OutServe Board of Directors.
American socialism looks uglier every day.
Ugly as sin, as we used to say...
Texas will go first, and Va will be right behind them. I’ll be moving from PA to one of them, if it stays blue here much longer.
“Pittsburgh in the west, Philly in the east, and Alabama in between.”
Suits me just fine, if we could nuke/neutralize those two lib-dem crapholes.
sad but true... it's now a race to the bottom
These are two homosexual women.
They hate men & prefer women.
They choose women who look & act like men?
I propose a simple bumper sticker for this election cycle...
Democrat: The Depraved Party of Abortion & Homosexual Sex on Your Dime
Hahaha!! she should be obama’s secret service agent, after all, he is the first “Gay President”, lol.
Now that she’s out of the closet I wonder if she makes it to Maj. Gen.? Doesn’t Congress have to approve General promotions?
FWIW, she doesn’t look half bad not like some bulldykes I’ve seen. Bet Laz would hit it if she played on his team.
Any such advancement by the gays, particularly in an institution like the military, will ultimately mean the mistreatment of non-gays, and the demonizing of them in general. This is part of the overall gay agenda, to
DEMONIZE those not on board with the agenda. And government officials are often all too willing to accomodate the gays.
Sad day in America.
The amount of cronyism faggots exercise is astounding. I couldn’t imagine trying to work for a homosexual in the military: Sodomize or be scrutinized.
Yesterday, i worked in Kansas City at a pre-season game. Our KC branch was short, so a number of us from STL rode in two rented vans to pick up the slack. My seat mate was a middle aged woman. Inevitably a comment was made about politics and I withdrew because I thought I would be in the minority. Wrong. This woman calmly and straight forwardly evicerated anything Obama, from his upbringing to his wife. It was a rant delivered with ferocity, yet cold calculation. When she was done she went leaned back and said “call ME a racist. I dare you..”
I thought the brief silence was trouble, until two of the black guys we were with, jumped in and said, “gay marriage and anti-blackness is what turned our family off. He only cares about gays and illegals!”
I asked about that and he explained that a lot of black Obama voters were angry at the gay pandering (black voters are not down with THAT struggle), the efforts legalize illegal Hispanics, and the complete “dissing of the mainstream black community, the ones who put him in office!”
He said the community also feels that the illegals are being touted as the new “black”.
The woman then turned to me and with a quick nod of her head to indicate the two guys, said, “the silent majority, you are seeing chick fil a happening on our van..”
My point? I’ll bet none of the polls saying Obama is close to Romney never polled anyone in our van. I felt a little more confidence than I have after that.
On a side note, I was assigned to the Chiefs bench. I picked up an errant pass and tossed it to Stanzi who was warming up in the 3rd quarter.
I thought it was one the coolest things I have done for this company..
I hope not. But I do know this — there will be serious trouble.
Real-life lesbians are always wildly disappointing compared to the imaginary ones in pornography.
