"Our weak military is losing many lives of men and failing to perform in this war? - Are you watching a different war than I am? I think their advances and extremely low losses show a force that is the best in the world, in spite of these women being there.

Your fear was real, however, it is not playing out. Our military is strong."

Indeed they are. So why are women there? To prove a feminist point that women are equal to men? They are not needed to win the war, and place our brave fighting men at needless additional risks. So to your mind, how much additional risks must our brave fighting men take to indulge your political correctness and feminism?

Women on the battlefield serve only to promote and further a feminist and politically correct agenda, at the risk of the lives of our brave men. But then, so many have already died on the alter of feminism already. I suppose a few good man added to that list is of no consequence.

It is interesting how we at FR loath Liberalism, but then embrace feminism. We are, and will continue to be, victims of our own duplicity.

So you can look at the evidence of how we are performing despite the women being there and still hang on to the assertion that women are costing lives. That is just the way you thought it would be, there isn't any evidence that is true.

Keeping women from doing jobs that they are capable of doing and want to do is not part of my agenda, nor is it a stated goal of the Republican party. It might be the goal of some on the fringes here who think the proper role of women is really up for debate still... but they haven't got the memo. This page is written already. Women are in the military, and have been trained in many roles of military service for many years. Their privilege to serve is not an agenda item.
