Mike Huckabee isn’t happy with President Obama‘s decision to appoint an openly gay man as the next Secretary of the Army.
Eric Fanning, the current acting Under Secretary of Army, was selected by Obama this week, which would make him the first openly gay man to lead any branch of the U.S. military.
And while The Washington Post notes his sexuality isn’t really a big deal to the Army or to even some Republicans in Congress, leave it to Huckabee to crank up the outrage-ometer with this statement today:
It’s clear President Obama is more interested in appeasing America’s homosexuals than honoring America’s heroes. Veterans suicide is out-of-control and military readiness is dangerously low, yet Obama is so obsessed with pandering to liberal interest groups he’s nominated an openly gay civilian to run the Army. Homosexuality is not a job qualification. The U.S. military is designed to keep Americans safe and complete combat missions, not conduct social experiments.
Huckabee said something similar last month when asked about transgender soldiers, because obviously allowing non-straight people to serve their country openly with honor and dignity is a “social experiment.”
Looks like he ain't sayin.
Is that picture real?
Barf alert on that last picture.
Check out the Obama arm closest to us.
May be easy to lose sight of the presidential duties under the current slacker, but, he is commander in chief of the armed forces 24/7/365.
The Secretary of the Army (SA or SECARMY) is a senior civilian official within the Department of Defense of the United States of America with statutory responsibility for all matters relating to the United States Army: manpower, personnel, reserve affairs, installations, environmental issues, weapons systems and equipment acquisition, communications, and financial management.
The Secretary of the Army is nominated by the President and confirmed by the U.S. Senate, the Secretary of the Army is a non-Cabinet position serving under the Secretary of Defense.[2] This position was created on September 18, 1947, replacing the Secretary of War, when the Department of War became the Department of the Army and was made a department within the new Department of Defense.[3]

The issue is never the issue, the issue is the AGENDA.
Some republicans seem to have surrendered in this war. Other republicans seem to be happy for the homos. Other republicans are probably happy with the bribes that the homos have been paying them.
Correct. However, considering this guy’s experience, he will probably be confirmed
“Fanning, 47, has been a specialist on national security issues for more than two decades and has played a key role overseeing some of the Pentagon’s biggest shipbuilding and fighter jet programs.
Have you researched the kissing photo? Is is photoshopped??
can anyone imagine the scene in russia when putin and crew heard this news?
they were prolly busting a gut for a good 10-15 minutes.
Can the next president simply dismiss all the appointees that homobama has been making?
Do I see a white hand, different texture of cloth?
I don’t think the hand, but the arm fabric seems a different color.
I think that’s Oprah to the right, Michelle to the left - and isn’t it Sarkosy he’s kissing? If it’s real. Which I doubt.
What are your fellow officers saying about homobama’s choice for Army sec.?
the Brit PM and yes, i believe it is shopped
Don't you get it Mike? Obama just wants to share a sauna with the general and get to play with his big guns before he leaves his office,.............
Each President nominates their own Secretary of the Army
Huckabee’s forgotten that we went Through the Looking Glass back in 2008.
Good for Huckabee! Happy he speaks up about these type issues.
