He needs to start planning his retirement.
It’s coming soon.

The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said today that repealing Don't Ask Don't tell is the right thing to do.

Mullen called repealing the policy, which bans openly gay men and lesbians from serving, "the right thing to do" and said he was personally troubled by effectively forcing service members to "lie about who they are in order to defend their fellow citizens." So admiral can you do away with the UCMJ articles about rape and carnal knowledge and sodomy as well? Those are bothersome articles that people have to lie about as well.

Shameful. This senile old fool is determined to embarrass himself with his desperation to cling to his Senate seat

Time to run McCain out of town ! He is out of touch.
To: rabscuttle385
For those of you that read no more than the headline:
"At this moment of immense hardship for our armed services, we should not be seeking to overturn the 'don't ask, don't tell' policy," McCain said bluntly, before describing it as "imperfect but effective."

This bothers me greatly, the US Military first and foremost must have impeccable Morality, when that is cast under the bus what is left?
The Military then becomes just another .Gov agency whose mission is to kill people and break things, there is no higher calling.

He’s not flip flopping. He’s re-adjusting his opinion according to what the MSM thinks.

The McCain hatred on FR is pathological.
McCain is moving in the direction most Freepers prefer (keeping DADT) and they still bash him? McCain is not enemy #1, he’s not even enemy #100. Besides Obama, look at the Democrats in Congress.
How many people think Obama won primarily because McCain ran a poor campaign? I think it’s because people were sick of Republicans in general, starting with Bush, and for good reason (although the Democrats are still worse).

If you think McCain derangement syndrome is bad around here, it is nothing to compare with Romney derangement syndrome. Mitt is just another garden variety RINO who doesn’t p*Ss on conservatives quite as enthusiastically as does McCain.
