Sounds brilliant to me, so lets quit criticizing the man.

Sounds like a sneaky way to get around the Presidents clear order to me.

he said he didn’t care who adults slept with.

The Army has clear rules about Adultery so do queers, they are not even close to the same.

It was in Obama’s last 6 months in office when he told Ash Carter to allow the drag queens in. It was the last slap in the face to the US military. Like allowing women in combat, open homosexuals to serve, it was not debated and approved by Congress. They were all BS executive orders that can be undone by another executive order. Obama tried his damnest to destroy the US military. Trump can fix it. But not as long as he keeps Obama’s generals around.

Mattis was referring to a couple of lesbians or homosexuals getting it on. What use to get them kicked out, as in homosexual acts, does not get them kicked out anymore. Sodomy is fine in the military and it’s treated the same as sex between two consenting adults. Total 100% acceptance of sodomy, a notorious crime that up to a few years ago, was illegal since the founding of the country. Obama was smarter than all the US presidents before him. Until his election no general officer had ever advocated for sodomites to openly be allowed on active duty and certainly no person that thought they were a different sex than what the good Lord made them. It was a mental disorder and stilll is.

How about non-discrimination for the legally blind to become snipers?

How about quadriplegics being admitted in the infantry?

We must be fair, right?

The military is not the place for social experiments. And some things are too obvious to not know they will damage the ability of our military to do its real job of protecting the nation.

Then again, maybe that’s the real agenda behind these ridiculous demands.

We should find out soon if Trump’s order is carried out or he caves to Obama’s generals.

"Defense Secretary Jim Mattis is expected to propose to President Trump that transgender members of the U.S. military be allowed to continue serving..."

Suuure. What the hell...

ditto gun control - once they concede in cracking the door, they will go into a full court press to continue edging the door open, one bit at a time until the 2nd Amendment is dead.

Being remembered as the man who wanted drag queens in the military seems not to bother Mattis in the past least. Hopefully the president will tell him to obey his order or find himself another job. Mattis tries to give the impression he’s the second coming of Patton, but Patton would never degrade the mission effectiveness of the military by allowing those with serious mental disorders to serve.

Fox News has confirmed liberal Mattis will recommend drag queens be allowed in the military as long as they can deploy.
