So? So? I'm waiting.

Sorry but it is bs.
These generals are homophobic period. Anyone against gays in the military are homophobic. Anyone against women in the military are sexist. That is a fact. These generals should do their freaking job instead of getting mixed up in politics.. if they want to be in politics, then leave the military and do so.. dont sit behind the desk at the pentagon and promote their narrow-minded crap.

Okay, so??People thought integrating black people into the rest of the military would ruin unit cohesion and morale.
Talk about propaganda.
Simply Google gay gene hoax and learn something.
What really makes this sickening right now is that this subject has even got this much priority & focus from Chairman Obama. You'd think he'd be more concerned about winning the conflict in Afghanistan. So while the Liberal papers are headinling this issue like its so damn important right now the actual conflict (where many brave men are risking & sacrificing there lives) gets page 10. :roll:
2 Generals Wary About Repealing Gay Policy - NYTimes.com
By THOM SHANKER
Published: February 23, 2010
WASHINGTON — The top generals from the Army and the Air Force expressed deep concern on Tuesday about moving rapidly to lift the ban on openly gay service members, saying it could make it harder for their forces to do their jobs while fighting two wars.
The comments by Gen. George W. Casey Jr., the Army chief of the staff, and Gen. Norton A. Schwartz, the Air Force chief of staff, may provide political cover for members of Congress who oppose President Obama’s call for repealing the policy known as “don’t ask, don’t tell.”
“I do have serious concerns about the impact of repeal of the law on a force that’s fully engaged in two wars and has been at war for eight-and-a-half years,” General Casey told the Senate Armed Services Committee. “We just don’t know the impacts on readiness and military effectiveness.”
Huh? If men and women can serve together, what is the difference if gay people are serving? This business that heterosexuals believe that gay people are attracted to EVERY person of their same sex is so ludicrous. Gay people are just like us--they are attracted to some people, but not all. Do these stupid generals think, "Joey is gay. He must be staring at my ass. He must want to BF me." Oh brother. Talk about ignorant.
So they found two homophobic generals.. big wutido.
Okay, I getcha. So if we change the policy to open gay lifestyle all those cost will go away and it will be free. Thanks, I stand corrected. I'm glad we have these analysis available to show us the err of our ways.
Dont forget the polygamists and cross dressers. You let in one life style choice why not the rest of them? Aren't they people too? Don't they deserve "rights?" :roll:
Sorry but it is bs.
This ban on homosexuals in the military is a leftover from the days when homosexuality was banned in general in society, either by law or by some sort of society moral often enforced by the church and the state.
While society has managed for the most part to get rid of the bans on homosexuality, the ban still remains entrenched in the macho world of the military.
There whole argument is the same lame argument that they used to prevent women severing in the military and that argument was overcome for the most part.
The argument is an old mans conservative argument that is based on the age old dividing up of roles in society.. men hunt and provide, women are homemakers and breeding machines. Anyone stepping outside this predefined role are punished. Like it or not, we dont live in the 1400s anymore, but in the 21st century.

:rofl...AR 670-1 will be a thousand pages long if that happens.
Its funny but seriously, what argument could you possibly make for keeping the rest of the lifestyle choices out once you let one in? Doesn't matter if its cross dressers or polygamists or homosexuals first. Once that wall is down, its down for all.
In the military, if a female thinks you're eye-****ing her, not only can she file a sexual harassment charge against you, she can also get you charged with intent to rape, which is a court martial offense. Whether, or not you wanted to rape her is of no matter; as long as she believes that you wanted to rape her.
I'm still wondering how, exactly, they're going to by-pass the UCMJ to repeal DADT. That's going to be interesting, to say the least.

well then it won;t matter if they change it, will it, coz thats what happens now, so no one should careI was a Marine for 8 years so i think im qualified to talk about it.
If they let OPEN homosexuals join the military i feel sorry for that person, they will be mocked and teased untill they quit and recieve a "dis-honorable" discharge.
OR they will join just so they can sue the military for harrasment and quit with a huge payout. Military soldiers do NOT need this BS, keep your social projects in civiilan life.
Men in the military is like men in contruction, im sorry but its not homo friendly :2wave:

You sure have a mighty low opinion of our military. Saying that gays will be mocked and teased is saying that those doing these actions are low-life scum who have no respect for regulations, no respect for their uniform, and no respect for fellow human beings.
How sad is that?
