Pentagon leaders preparing for a new culture of gays serving openly in the military are serving notice that discrimination will not be tolerated.
Defense Secretary Robert Gates also directed his policy staff in a memorandum to move ahead carefully, but expeditiously, to end the 17-year-old "don't ask, don't tell" policy instituted during the Clinton administration.
Officials said they will complete implementation plans for the new policy by next Friday and will commence training in February.

THE end of a superb military by PC communists and demoncrats! Another “goal” achieved and the Nation even more at peril!

I know they prosecute officers for cheating on their marriage vows, so what will be the policy if you cheat on your gay spouse?
Perhaps gays might want to rethink this whole marriage idea.

I’m so damned glad I retired in 2004.
One more piece of clear evidence our Nation is never going back to what it once was.
No wonder Jim DeMint and Mike Pence said “thanks but no thanks” to running for President. Who in their right mind would want to preside over this mess?

I know they prosecute officers for cheating on their marriage vows... I personally know of cheating going on in my unit (battalion commander with his XO's wife and various female DA/NAF civilians) and others back in the late 70s/early 80s that got no UCMJ attention. I'd say it has to be pretty egregious and flagrant to result in any action. Of course, it doesn't hurt that the commander was a ringknocker.

Gates and too many generals are complete zip wads on this issue. They are only too happy to show how liberal they are.
The way to fight this among the lower ranks is to agitate for freedom of speech to be preserved and not corralled by PC anti-bullying/anti-fag sexual harassment nonsense.
The fact that homosexuals have a much higher incidence of a great variety of health problems also needs to be used to the max.

Under the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) the Federal Government CANNOT recognize gay relationships as marriage. How are gays going to get there significant other enrolled in Deers,ID card etc since you either need to be married or a dependent minor (and from experience I can tell you that the paper work is analyzed)?

Under the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) the Federal Government CANNOT recognize gay relationships as marriage. If you read the report on the DADT repeal, you will find that they plan for DOMA to be overturned by the courts.

I’m sick of cowards on the right when it comes to those who are homosexuals and their agenda.
I know of 5 , 3 of which are in Afghanistan right now who will not be joining the military or leaving it now.
To think that we are now saying to fighting men that they have to share bunks, sleeping bags, showers and have to now put up with men holding hands and kissing on base is truly the most disgusting thing this admin has done.

EXACTLY
The next stop will be that they can die and fight for their country but cannot marry in their state and therefore they should overturn DOMA
After that it will be teach it in the schools because the feds recognise their perverted agenda.
To all those who say or said they couldn’t careless or what ever then I hope you;re proud of yourselves for allowing this mentally sick agenda destroy our country
Message for those homosexuals trolls.
I and my family, especially my young children will never ever think of you as in a normal marriage, normal families or anything normal.

I believe this will have a severe negative effect on the readiness, ability and discipline of the US Military, and yes, that was another Marxist goal.
