Obama's (and Soros’s) New 'Gay' Force
Obama's New 'Gay' Force
by Kevin McCullough
With the passage of the law to repeal the Clinton-era legislation commonly referred to as "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," President Obama enters into a new reality. In one last blaze of defiance of the American people, and expressly those who serve in our nation's armed forces, President Obama was able to shove social engineering into pretty much the very corner of American culture where we have no business doing so.
Upon his signature President Obama will begin a process that will at the very least disrupt operations, and at the very worst see the eventual weakening of our armed forces.
Throughout the entirety of this debate I've had questions, none of which seemed to be answered or even asked in the congressional sessions dealing with the matter.
From a purely pragmatic standpoint perhaps someone could answer them now, since I'm especially sure that President Obama wouldn't push for such a fundamental transformation of our military without good answers to them.
1. What happens to housing, on base and in theater?
If it is morally questionable to have men and women housed together because of the sexual tension that exists between primarily men who would be predatorily interested in the women they might shower with or frequently be seen in the act of dressing and undressing on a regular basis, why is it any different if you have identified the predatory homosexual male who might have an unrequited "thing" for a fellow service member? If it is proper to keep men and women housed separately do we now go to four sets of housing. Men who don't engage in homosexual activity, Men who do, Women who don't, Women who do? Practically speaking Mr. President how do you get past the fundamental sexual tension that will be present the minute some make it known?
2. Do you expect the military system or the civilian courts to deal with the influx of phony sexual harassment cases to follow?
Consider this issue a prediction of sorts, but take it to the bank that those who engage in open homosexuality will feel the freedom if not the need begin to portray themselves as victims of harassment pretty much anytime something doesn't go their way. And it may not require anything all that severe to trigger it. A drill instructor gets a little too rough in his language while trying to beat the "sissy" out of a recruit in basic training or Officer Candidate School and the backlog will commence.
3. Will base commanders be required to host "pride" events that allow for similar conduct to the x-rated displays that go on in the nation's cities each year?
There was much discussion in the Senate and House hearings about the issue of morale, the breakdown of structure, the significance of discipline and the ability to command respect and a readied force. Nothing related to any "pride" event ever held comes close to anything resembling respect, discipline, or structure. There is a reason our best volunteer to serve their nation, and it has nothing to do with speedos, bump or grind.
4. Will all other sexual conduct be made legal as well?
It is still a crime to commit adultery in active military duty, and even more so for officers. How can you possibly be allowing for the flamboyancy of effeminate male soldiers to engage in sexual conduct and their notorious ever wandering lust for the new on one hand, and hold court martial for those who have discreetly hidden their sexual escapades while destroying their families?
There are many legitimate reasons why the military is not the place to run experiments on the restructuring of the society at large.
For the leftist idiots who will scream the meme that, "every other nation on the planet already does it," shut up!
None of those military forces are the United States Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marines.
I know the progressive elites in the nation awake this morning feeling better about what has been done to the U.S. Military in this vote. I know this President has never served and likely barely knows anyone who has. I know that the godless in our nation think this is all a tremendous step forward.
In the hundreds of conversations I've had with those that serve in our nation's armed forces, from Naval F-18 aviators to Army Rangers, Marine specialists to Air Force pilots of B2 stealth bombers, C130s, and military drones, the view of the military is clear. They serve to focus on the mission at hand, not because they may or may not display pictures of their romantic interests in the living quarters.
I know that our military has been the best in the world, and that they deserved to be listened to when they spoke clearly from the four branches to the President. The head of each branch clearly made the case for not allowing the military to become a place where the focus of our troops was placed on when and how they can have sex, instead of achieving their mission.
But now that reality has been thrust upon us.
It was President Obama's doing, and the results that follow will be laid at his feet.

Wiild Thing's comment.......
Before Obama we were the only superpower: We spend as much on defense as all the other countries in the world, combined! If we become weak, guess what happens? Of course, that’s probably the plan. The United States invented the concept of superpower. Now we can only hope for a seat at the table. We were great once and we can be again. But we have to make drastic changes to get back our country and they better begin this January and continue on or we are sunk.
Our troops now are awesome. But Obama's pink squads will probably be told their R.O.E.'S are to try and just "bitch slap” Al Queda into submission.
Imagine what our forefathers would think of all this?
What about West Point? The Naval Academy? VMI? Air Force school in Colorado???
Are they going to be re-organized, also?

If you have two or three openly queers in your platoon this is going to destroy unit cohesion, discipline and morale. This will turn our Military into a joke. Who is going to want to serve. I have heard about threatened resignations, and recruitment is going to drop like a rock. And re enlistments will drop too.
Can you imagine all the Service songs being sung by the "Villiage People".

Yup...more CHANGE. At least now those dreary military buildings will get some much-needed decorating changes. No more oh-so-bland greens and greys! Puce and coral will be the colors of tomorrow's military housing!

This whole thing is in a word, STUPID! That national leaders stand before the American public and argue some of the lame lines of argument put forth is both intellectually embarrassing and illogical. Let’s see, Admiral Mullen’s most recent foot-in-mouth attempt at justification is, “homosexuals have to live a lie.” What lie? The last time I checked, sodomy was a violation of the UCMJ; the last time I checked, illicit sex was a violation of the UCMJ; and the last time I checked sex out of wedlock was a violation of the UCMJ. Is the Admiral suggesting that military leaders should no longer enforce those elements of the UCMJ? Is he suggesting that those pertinent sections of the UCMJ are both out of date, and in the process of repealing DADT he will ask the Congress to repeal those portions of the UCMJ? And this person is Chairman of the JCS? Folks, with Admiral Mike Mullen advancing homosexual behavior and General George Casey, Chief of Staff of the Army lamenting a U.S. Army Muslim terrorist attack on fellow soldiers for its potential negative effects on diversity in charge, America is in serious trouble!

"Other nations let them in". Other nations don't carry the burden of defending freedom around the globe. Only America is fully committed to that goal. We have been fighting for freedom almost non stop since 1941. Who will carry the fight if the warriors leave the military because they don't want to be in a barracks or tent with openly practising gays? Will it be the TSA? Or will the gay military then become obama's home security corps?
obama, the Dems and some weak willed Repubs are ruining America. What we need ASAP is some strong conservative leadership in DC that will not only stop this murder, but repeal all that has been done legislatively in the past few years.

Back in the 70's, In The Navy by the Village People was going to be used as a recruitment song until the Navy found out the Village People were homosexuals. I bet Mullen, as a junior officer, was pushing for the song.

Blah! So what the hell are our Drill-Sergeants going to do? I can tell you what I'd do if I was one... but that would seem cruel. They better not bring that lispy crap to formation. I was in the air cav and served on a tank. We had crews of four. Those are small quarters. (not to mention subs..criminy) We were a killing machine. Hope they're ready. I'm not even sure I know where I'm going with this. They better not tell 'cause men will ask. Whatever

Great input thank you all so much!!!!!!

I worry what the reaction of the populous of the half of the world that doesn't support gays is going to be. It took decades for the American Army to be believed when it was establish that it was an Army that did not tolerate rape and pillage. Now how are we going to establish that we do not spread disease especially if we do?
The US army does not deserve to be smeared like this for the political benefits of some brass heavy REMFs.
