I knew this would happen. I’m slightly miffed, but not really outraged.

Why would they block the DREAM act, but press on for the gays? Is it possible that the gays have more power than we ever imagined? I want to see the list of the R’s who bent over for this.

Me too. This was obviously going to happen for about the last couple weeks.

The original policy was meant to stop the witch hunts against gays in the military, so frankly I must admit I find it funny how now the right is wanting to keep it.

Don’t get me wrong...I would have preferred to keep it myself. But, it’s just ironic how sides can switch.

This was the wrong move, but infinitely more bearable to me than the DREAM act.

Since the guys and gals in the military don't seem too exercised about it, I can't get too upset about repealing DADT.

Given the choice, I'm glad "DREAM" was the one that failed!

Honestly, I think deals were made to kill the Dream Act and let this pass. While a disgusting piece of legislation, this one is more easily undone than the Dream Act.

I agree with you. The big news today is the fact that Dream died.

I think it’s a joke to keep accomodating every group, but that’s where we are. DADT was really weak anyway. A milquetoast policy passed by an immoral Pres. The real question is: Why are we talking about it? We need to get back to merit only. I don’t care ultimately if someone is gay. Can they do the REAL job??? If not, go be gay as a civilian.

Today: Dream died. That’s the headline. The republic turned back the real threaty. The distraction of DADT didn’t work.

Its not that Gays will be allowed to serve in the military that bothers me so much as the fact that the top Brass will institute no discrimination policies that will end careers and punish people for even the smallest perceived slight by a homosexual, such as a gay joke.

...and since you’re merely miffed, this is another victory for Hussein and his cult.

Their goal is to make people “get used to it”.

I remember an extremist liberal Hussein cultist speaking to me when I expressed outrage the day after his god signed the healthcare bill into law: “You’ll get used to it.”

They really DO want to make perversion SO ubiquitous that we aren’t sickened by it anymore.

"I knew this would happen. I’m slightly miffed, but not really outraged."

I served in the Army for 11 years, ruining a knee and both shoulders in the process. My father, brother, one uncle and one grandfather served in either the Army or the Air Force. I still have a few buddies in uniform, and have had a couple who were killed or maimed in the service of our nation.

If homos are allowed to serve openly and defiantly in the military, it will be because the Obammunist, Congress, the sodomite lobby, and today's "don't know, don't care" American citizenry (the vast majority of which has never served a day in boots), took a big collective dump on my service, the service of my family members, the service of my buddies who have sacrificed their bodies or their lives, and each and every American who served before us. Mad? That doesn't even begin to describe it. Spitting nails is a little closer to accurate, but I can't use the words I need to fully describe my thoughts and feelings on this forum.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

I’m outraged enough for both of us.
