"Fully integrating women is not only the right thing to do, it makes our military stronger," she {Rep. Jackie Speier, a California Democrat and chair of the House Armed Services Military Personnel subcommittee} said.

Fortunately, this insane legislation won't make it out of the Senate.

Democrats demand 'diversity' even at the expense of good Marines needlessly dying in the process.

"Fully integrating women...makes our military stronger"

That is just like the Dem mantra "Diversity is our strength." It's pure pablum without any empirical evidence of any kind to back it up. We're just supposed to blithely swallow that bilge.

GD it....Anything having to do with military should be required to answer this question first before moving on to whether we should or should not...

That simple question is "does this xyz legislation make the military a more feared, lethal, and fierce fighting force."

That's it...Answer that question without lowering the standards or "accommodating" any group -- The standard is the standard, not one for males and one for females, period, full stop!!!

The Marines are responsible for one primary function in the time of war: “Marines specialize in amphibious operations, with their primary specialty being assault, capture, and control "beach heads," which then provide a route to attack the enemy from almost any direction.”

General Al Gray would not approve of this non-sense

Diversity’ll get a backrub after a hard day at the obstacle course.

Jackie Speier is no friend of the military or the Marines, but she is from California’s pile of Dems, so I repeat myself.

I support this 100%

As long as it is truly equal. Make the women have to pass the same PT fitness standards as the men. If they can do that then let them be a Marine.

But they shouldn’t get any special treatment. Shave their heads and make them carry the same weight as the males. If women can’t cut it with the same standards as the men then let them go.

There’s simple “no”, a polite but firm “No, Thank You” then there’s L/Cpl. Snuffy McNasty saying “hell NO, have you lost your f’n mind?”

Another example of the leftists seeing the military as nothing but a social lab where they can test their lunatic ideas. Most from Obama’s time are still in place........

I was in Marine boot camp in early 1981.

Having women with me would have made those 13 weeks a lot easier. That's all I'm saying.

A handful of lesbos and ego maniac women are f*ing life up for all women. A 14 year old boy in reasonably fit condition could kick the ass of 99% of the female women in the military. They are excess baggage in a fight unless someone needs a button pushed or some shirts ironed.

Female Marine Colonel to male Marine Colonel upon settling her female Marines into their new barrack: “My Marines are good Marines; they have it up here.”

Male Colonel’s reply: “Colonel, it doesn’t matter where they have it; my Marines will find it!”
