Freep this Poll on the Reagan.com site. The poll currently shows that americans want homosexuals to serve in the military. Obviously most of the people voting in this poll are either homosexuals or they have not served in the military.

I've had a change of opinion....
I'm all for loading up a 100 "Act Up" radicals on a plane, and dropping them on Afghanistan..

Screwed up lefty poll as usual. Nobody cares. Long as it is not shoved in anyone's face. Andrew Sullivan and his crowd are going to have to live with that. It is the best they can do.

I"m as fiercely conservative as ever, I still believe that homosexuality is morally reprehensible and socially irresponsible. I still have no love in my heart for the activists who put their own selfish interests before those of the general populace, especially our children. Having said that, however, let me now say that there are obviously some of them that deserve a chance to fight for our country if thats what they are serious about doing, those whose patriotism rises above selfish motives. Words cannot express my gratitude to the only homosexual to earn my respect, Mark Bingham, one of the passengers on UA FLight 93 who attempted to overpower the hijackers, thereby saving another terrorist's target from destruction. If they are willing to fight and die with us, then I say, let em in.

Yeah..but here we go with identity politics. Who cares? He was a person. Do you really want to keep score of how many lesbians, homosexuals, transgendered, straight, straight but somewhat kinky, kinky but kinda straight, straight but childless, Oriential, Eurasian, Hutu, Caucasian, African, Tutsi, Arab, Eskimo or none of the above did this or that?

Evidently, there is no "cookie security" on that poll. It's easy to vote beaucoup times, and I did -- about 60 times, in fact. Didn't take much time at all

I disagree. The key here is "openly" homosexual. I'm sure there have been some homosexuals who have served their country well. I am also sure that if they make their sexual choices public knowledge, they are not serving their country well. There are many ways to serve your country. Being an open homosexual in the military is not one of them. Frankly, I don't want to know about your sexual habits if you are heterosexual. I certainly don't want to know about them if you are gay. (I am not using "you" in the literal sense)

ONLY if they are sent as the front line. Other than that, NO.

ALLEGEDLY one of the three men, who took out the hijackers on flight #93... was a gay rugby player. Not that it matters. I did not say I believed it, but it was reported on a couple of different radio talk shows in the last week or so.
I doubt it makes any difference to anyone here... but it does give one pause... this one.

It matters to the poster above you, nmh. She is one of the few here that beleive that being homosexual cancelled out any heroic action that guy took.

ALL Americans, regardless of their sexual orientation, should be able to serve in the military. I doubt you truly believe this. What's your stance on pedophiles in the military?
