Repeal of dadt has nothing to do with gays.

It has everything to do with weakening our military by lawsuits, threats of lawsuits, and creating discomfortable situations within our uniformed services, and inviting good soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines to leave and be replaced by...(use your imagination).

It also has to do with destroying the military traditions and culture.

It has precisely nothing, NOTHING to do with gays. (Actually, one could argue that gays are being used and taken advantage of for the dark purposes of weakening and corroding our precious military.)

And, most vets, just like me, feel the same way.

I agree. My guess is that the lawsuits (discrimination, unequal accommodation, spousal rights, etc.) begin as soon as the ink has dried. The military will be unable to extricate itself from all the litigation. We will be defenseless.

It can and I believe will have a lot to do with the ones having an LGBT agenda and by repealing DADT it gives them the inroad.

(I filled in my opinion...)

weakening our military by lawsuits, threats of lawsuits,

Good point. It's all about which special interest gets to pick from the socialist money tree next in the name of 'fairness'

It is also a backdoor attack on traditional religious values.

Though they deny it, inevitably Chaplains will be muzzled so as not to discomfit the Gay Brigade.

They said that "equal Rights" for women would not lead to gay marriage and unisex bathrooms and toilets; we have both now.

Just another thing that "progressives" want to shove down our throats.

The thing about DADT was that, it put boundaries around sexual behavior: the truth is that it did NOT prohibit gays from serving, but only from demonstrating behavior that is antithical to military culture.

One was a soldier/marine/airman/sailor/coastie. Period.

Now it's about accepting a hyphenated identity: Gays in the Military.

I hope there are plenty in the ranks that will make it clear that sharing that "identity" is TMI: Too Much Information, and that he/she had best just shut up.
