A married Army general on Tuesday introduced his spouse at a Pentagon event that featured lots of top brass, including Defense Secretary Ashton Carter as the keynote speaker.

What made this seemingly routine introduction noteworthy is that Brig. Gen. Randy S. Taylor introduced his husband, Lucas.

“My husband Lucas is sitting up front here,” Gen. Taylor said of the man in the same row as Mr. Carter, Army Secretary John McHugh and other senior officials. He said Lucas has subjugated his own career to support the general’s frequent moves over an 18-year relationship.

I hardly see any point in celebrating Independence Day anymore. It’s more of a cruel joke, to be waving the flag of dead nation.

Since Taylor introduced the guy as ‘my husband’ I’m guessing that Taylor considers “himself” to be the wife. I wonder if he will do a Chelsea Manning and request gender reassignment surgery?

"He’s not married. He does not have a husband."

Exactly right. While we might feel powerless to stop this insanity, we are not. Each of us must, in whatever capacity presents itself in our daily lives, refuse to accept the left's distorted terminology and their vile, evil policies. We're at the point where we must be willing to accept whatever retribution comes our way and simply say "no." Steadfastly refuse to go along with the "diversity" agenda in the workplace, in school, or anywhere else. I guarantee there is a huge "silent majority" out there just waiting for someone to stand up and show them that this can be resisted.

Demand that the "diversity" advocates prove their inane claims. "Diversity is our strength"?... Then demand that they explain how "diversity" is better than unity. They say you are going to be rated as an employee on how you "manage diversity"?... Then demand that they explain exactly how they propose to objectively measure your performance in that area. They claim that the U.S. is a "racist nation" with "institutionalized racism"?... Make them prove it. As for the LGBTQRSTUVWXYZ idiocy, stand on your Constitutional right to religious free exercise and don't back down, EVER, no matter the consequence.

We have got to stop acquiescing and start resisting...period.

He might have gotten lucky with respect to timing. He apparently joined the Army after college in 1987. He would be in the zone for promotion to O-4 after 10 years of service, or in 1997.

“Don’t ask, don’t tell” was implemented in 1993. Clinton prohibited sexual orientation discrimination for security clearances in 1995. Even if his background check revealed he was gay, it could not be used to separate him from the military or deny clearance.

Assuming he did not require security clearance before reaching Major, his sexuality was not an impediment. He could have been separated had his CO had some independent source of homosexual activity since he would not have been privy to the background check.

Also, who knows if he was an active homosexual during that time? He might be bisexual or was asexual for a time.

You got it exactly right. The pervs can pass all the laws they want, but they can't change the fact that homosexuality is a loathsome, aberrant practice. And while they can force some people into silence, they can't force all of us into acceptance.

It's time to be the child who told the emperor he has no clothes.

It is why muslims always sodomize their new recruits-—it dehumanizes them and conditions them (emasculates them) into taking orders (Libido Dominandi).....it is all about total control

Yes exactly.

I pointed this out about Hastert the other day and was roundly criticized for saying he wasn't really a homosexual but rather a man trying to control others.

IOW, a psychopath.

Perhaps there is some nascent homosexuality in such a person but it isn't really about "attraction to the same sex". It's about controlling someone in the most crude, humiliating and brutal manner.

Interesting view. Horrifying scenario. I guess the root of the problem goes beyond the military structure to the prevailing sick values that are being promoted in our society. It makes my blood boil.

“Homo Generals already! That explains a lot”

Well, ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ was over twenty years ago. So yeah, I guess I’m not surprised.

Thanks for the consideration and fully agreed. It’s a view from the bottom of ranks and society, where we’re not seen as much of a threat. Even though it disgusts us, they’ve flaunted it more in the past at those of us perceived as being unlikely to sue or depose anyone from a job.

This is not a socialist commentary. I’m not wealthy but am very fiscally and socially conservative and clean. From here, all sides in politics appear to lean to the social and fiscal left (the counter-culture, nonproductive debt regime). In reality, behind the American-”based” manufacturing on foreign soil, our U.S. private sector continues to shrink (regulations for monopolies), while big government spending on every level of government continues to pile up debts.

By the way, my time in the Guard was 1989-1996 (6 years in a light combat unit and 1 year in a heavier unit labeled combat but was really construction). Got out because of personnel problems around me (some really socially ate-up characters).

Requirements are usually a Secret for 0-1 through O-3 unless MI, SF, Gray Fox, some DOD and Joint Command jobs and some other areas. TS for 0-4 and above, although some have made 0-4 without it. Req before CGSC.

Crypto is another issue.

Secret can be granted by National Agency Check alone, but TS requires a full SSBI. He might have made it through thanks to Slicks catering to Hilary’s pro-gay demands

BTW, Above Secret is not disclosable beyond current edition of Popular Science. TS requires reading good ‘net sites! :)

Future Secretary of Defense or Joint Chiefs of Staff member, or both.

I also see the potential good in drafting all of the men. It would make men out of many of them and would change their views for the better, but only if they, all as enlisted recruits, first graduate from at least 13 weeks of total control initial training at one station (real combat training to prepare them for combat platoons).

If there’s an ounce of remaining civilian-like pride in them at the end of initial training, they’ll revert to political correctness later on. And no transfers for Navy or Air Force NCOs (except for Marines from rifle/infantry platoons) to Army light combat units (big mistake there, even in 12B units). And no promotions that aren’t based on merit.

I was in a unit that was good, tight and earned the Superior Unit Award with a commander, who was in his thirties. Then, a commander in his twenties came in. That was all she wrote.

I saw a few enlisted who were there before me, were all made NCOs at one time and didn’t get that kind of initial training. They didn’t belong in combat platoons (or especially in leadership positions).

They were also more likely to preach in favor of the counter-culture left (feminism, homo-activism, etc.). Some members of a small, junior NCO clique even cried and talked about deserting, when we had an alert. Their ring leader claimed to have some pull with a major at HQ unit. He acted like a queer sometimes.

Every combat unit needs to be looked at by regular evaluators (from other, proven units) with some say in that unit’s future. “Political” individuals and cliques should be weeded out. Eagle privates (specialists) who prefer to go by the book and are capable of training others should be increased.

Local civilian politics needs to be weeded out of Guard combat units. Would that be possible in today’s political environment? I don’t know.

THAT explains a lot. The greatest military machine ever assembled is now trashed.

Nah...if conscription had been maintained there would have been no shortfall in personnel which forced women onto ships, into combat units, etc. Hell, if we had conscription then maybe even somebody from the Romney or Sununu family might have served.
