Don't Ask... Do Tell!

"Repeal of gay ban causing few waves in military" - not true  The military brass have to comply because its the new law. The soldiers can't say anything publically or they will be disciplined. The media will bring out some backoffice desk clerk to say how wonderful it is. But that person goes home every night and has his own private shower. But, if you listen to what soldiers on the front lines are saying, you'll hear lots of grumbling.
It's going to hurt enlistment which is what liberals want all along. Liberals love the draft. What?? Yes.  Charlie Rangel (D-NY) has proposed a bill to reinstate the draft at least 3 times. It didn't get anywhere because recruitment levels were high. Put in gays, and you will kill recruitment.

During the Vietnam era people were drafted, which liberals used as a rallying cry to gain power. During the Iraq war, their protests were ineffectual, because the people fighting volunteered. Liberals need a strawman to attack.

You might say, well liberals don't like wars. Not necessarily true. Liberals have gotten us into several wars in which we weren't attacked: World War I, Korea, Vietnam, Somalia, Bosnia, and Libya.

Liberals also love telling people what to do: what kind of car to drive, what kind of food to eat, what light bulb to use, what sources of electricity you can use, what school you must go to, etc.

Repeal of gay ban causing few waves in military

WASHINGTON (AP) — After years of debate and months of final preparations, the military can no longer prevent gays from serving openly in its ranks.


Repeal of a 1993 law that allowed gays to serve only so long as they kept their sexual orientation private took effect Tuesday at 12:01 a.m. EDT.

Some in Congress still oppose the change, but top Pentagon leaders have certified that it will not undermine the military's ability to recruit or to fight wars.

The Army was distributing a business-as-usual statement Tuesday saying simply, "The law is repealed," and reminding soldiers to treat each other fairly.
