It makes me sick that American’s have elected this gay, hate filled narcissist to the office of President.

I asked a young active duty U.S. Marine what he thought about gays serving openly in his Marine Corps ?
He told me this ; “ We they let me billet with female Marines and when they let me shower with female Marines , I will have no problem with them letting gays serve in the open , but otherwise , FORGET IT ! “

This whole deal has been shoved down their throats , no pun intended . It needs to be totally reversed ASAP .
If gays want to serve , they should join the Peace Corps , not the Marine Corps

What an ungodly distraction this will be. Americans do not tolerate this kind of crap.

ozero shows his support for the military by imposing ridiculous ROEs on them increasing their casualty rate. Nice job, you marxist scumbag.

Obama doesn’t even support normal US troops. Why would he want to support the gay ones?

Now here is a twofer; good for our Armed Forces and the GOP presidential campaigns.

Why the GOP candidates don't push for repeal of the Fag Act that was hurriedly passed in a lame duck Congress by men and women who were just defeated at the polls is beyond me. There is little public support for a homo military and the rat Congress at the time run by Pelosi and Reid were scared to death to vote on it before the election.

Anyone afraid to profess repeal the the Fag Act will not have the courage to repeal Obamacare or take on the administrative agencies that are in actuality ruling our country. It is essential to roll back the damage done by these people.

Wanna kick your campaign into high gear? Want the money to roll in? Tell Christianne Amanpour today that homos do not belong in our military.

Could someone provide me a reason why homosexuals should not be allowed to serve in the military? Keep in mind I am secular conservative, so religious arguments do not appeal to me.

Gays HAVE been serving in the Military since the Country was Founded. Who or what you have sex with should not be an Issue,that is Why dont ask dont tell worked. Heterosexuals dont go around Bragging that they have sex with the opposite sex,it has NOTHING to do with your job.So Just stfu about it.

I have no idea. While gays should not be given special rights or be allowed to use public schools to procure, for one example, gays can and have served in every military that ever existed.

The Republicans could be reaping the benefits of this just as we did when gay marriaged was imposed by the Massachusetts judiciary. But instead of showing we respect the uniform even when we disagree with the point, the idiots in that crowd handed Obama a perfect weapon with which to label all Republicans as haters. Thanks, guys!

Debates should be dispassionate, not another excuse for people to pretend they`re at a game sshow. If you can`t be an adult and shut up for the time it takes for a debate, to allow the issues to be put out there and so the candidates can express positions [like Santorum`s] that make our points rationally, then stay home. Those bigmouthed boors were the best campaigners Obama could ask for.

When our side says`We weren`t booing HIM but what he SAID!` -- every leftist protestor says that.

You want to be commander in chief? You can start by standing up for the men and women who wear the uniform of the United States, even when it's not politically convenient," Obama said

Like.....when your ideology and your political party's ideology is ANTI WAR? Like when you command a million men in battle in a war you go around the word apologizing for? Like when your only plan for budget cutting is to put the military budget on the chopping block?

I really don’t have much of a problem with gay marriage either. If it is between two consenting adults, then the state should not interfere with their private lives.
