Full title: Paul Ryan says reversal of DADT repeal is step in wrong direction, sets out to revive American dream.

I am amazed that these cowards pretend to represent us. Obama goes full gay marriage, and the GOP obliges by retreating as usual. All they do on social issues is try and fail to hold ground, never attack, never advance, never force the enemy to react. Wars, culture or otherwise are never won like that.

WHAT? He’s supposed to be a believing CATHOLIC???

The GOP is making it DAMNED DIFFICULT to vote for R n R.

STEP IN WRONG DIRECTION? Yeah, if your destination is hell, then it is in the wrong direction.

So Ryan turns out to be a pandering coward after all.
Oh well.

America is dead and gone. The final nail in the coffin was the 2008 election of an African communist as President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. Hey, America had a great run... remember it fondly for what it was. There’s no point hanging onto the past. The upcoming election is meaningless.

The United States of America is now little more than a land mass populated by cretins, ingrates, and parasites who have absolutely no respect for the military and who vote for big government to confiscate money from their neighbors so that it may be “redistributed” to them in exchange for their votes. It is not an America worth defending anymore. That America no longer exists.

The parasites outnumber the hosts now, and there’s no going back. America is dead.
The Democrats have won.

Nothing lasts forever (shrug) and there’s no point crying or whining about it. My recommendation to every decent human left out there is to throw some cold water in your face and proceed to ‘Plan B’. Figure out how to grab every government dime you possibly can before the parasites who comprise the Democrat party “base” gobble it all up. Look for angles. Look for refuge. Hide what you have. Get under the radar and game the system. Every man for himself.

Good luck, everybody.

I have a feeling Ryan will start walking this statement back within 48 hours.

Especially since the very influential Ralph Reed was on TV tonight announcing the start of a program for a get-out-the-vote crusade beamed to the Evangelical Right.

Talk about the Evangelicals being blind-sided by Ryan on the same day.

How about an “everyone shut the hell up about your sexual escapades or you’re discharged” policy?

Shouldn’t be discussing that stuff at work anyway.

“Paul Ryan says reversal of DADT repeal is step in wrong direction “

Triple Negative. Animal Farm ... here we come.
Yes, I’m on your side. But this language is a reflection of the collective hypnosis, sucks that this is part of the conversation. Sucks for Paul that he has to talk this way.

Meta-comment :-)

I can sort of almost a little bit respect the libs who sincerely support the gay agenda (military and all the rest of it).

But Ryan DID oppose it. He knows it’s wrong. Now he’s saying, “We made one try, that’s enough, getting the policy reversed now would be hard work, so the hell with it.”

This is “leadership” in today’s Washington, D.C.

I hate to tell all of you this, but the military has been one of the most PC orgs in the government, precisely because they are the government.

It was true when my husband was in the Navy, from 1969 - 1974, and it is even more so now.

It’s why he resigned his commission.

Mitt Romney wanted to end DADT, as far back as 1994.

"One issue I want to clarify concerns President Clinton’s “don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t pursue” military policy. I believe that the Clinton compromise was a step in the right direction. I am also convinced that it is the first of a number of steps that will ultimately lead to gays and lesbians being able to serve openly and honestly in our nation’s military. That goal will only be reached when preventing discrimination against gays and lesbians is a mainstream concern, which is a goal we share."
Mitt Romney

"I think that would be a step in the wrong direction because people have already disclosed themselves."

That would be like throwing all the Islamofascists out of the State Dept after they are all nice and cozy.

The best we can probably hope for is Romney gets the economy pointed in the right direction.
Thats not quite the same as reforming and restoring America to its former greatness.
I hope I am wrong but junk like this isn’t very encouraging.

I can’t believe any of you thought it would go down any other way. Once Obama pulled the plug on DADT, that was it. There’s no going back. Homosexuals are far too politically powerful to entertain such a notion.
