Democrats have launched a new campaign to convince Congress and the American people that open homosexuality would be good for the United States' armed services. A group that assesses military preparedness says such a policy shift would seriously damage future U.S. military capabilities.
And they are using a skewed poll to support their arguments.
Forcing the military to provide an open door to those who choose the homosexual lifestyle would threaten the recruiting potential for the military.
I don't know ANY soldiers who want a homosexual sniffing around them, their barracks, or anywhere around them.

Yep yep yep, those evil homos are getting everywhere.
Um, do you, uh, want to come back to my place...?
"Forcing the military to provide an open door to those who choose the homosexual lifestyle would threaten the recruiting potential for the military."
I would guess that the idea of fighting an unnessicary, immoral, imperial, never ending war that is without direction and with an over abundance of corruption would be a much greater obstacle for recruiters.
1. What about the very first person to get shot in Iraq? He came out as gay, and he was quoted as saying the other soldiers didn't treat him any differently afterwards.
2. Noone WANTS homosexuals, regarding this guy's last "point". There's never been a conversation in the history of mankind which has gone:
"Boy, this sure is a nice neighborhood. Y'know what would make it even better? GAYS."
3. This is a post from an American Idol Messageboard. Why should this count for anything? People who watch American Idol are SUBHUMAN. It's a proven fact.
Right, where to begin?
Sexuality is not "chosen," it's inherent. Did you 'choose' to be straight, or have you always been attracted to the opposite sex? Yea, thought so.
And I doubt you know more than one or two soldiers (if that many) anyway. I, on the other hand, know several that could care less about sexuality. They just want someone who'll watch their back under fire.
Let's take the Spartans as an example. I haven't seen '300' and don't plan to...but the historical secret of the Spartan hoplites' success is the fact that they were totally ghey with each other. Totally...according to Herodotus, even the boy-loving Athenians made fun of the Spartans' being sooo ghey.
Other kings and generals tried to emulate the principle by recruiting ghey couples to fight side-by-side. They fight much more bravely if their ghey partners are close by.
So I take it this will be considered your recruitment application, sandy, dear? By all means, homosexuals SHOULD be brought home, if they are protecting a country that not only doesn't recognize their efforts, but makes them into tent creeping rapists.
I bet the Democrats didn't. I bet they just said "well, the homosexuals are among us, and why not just allow them to join the Army"? Are you against gay people getting themselves killed for America?
Have you chosen the tall or short lifestyle, sandy? There is actually less choice in the matter of gayness than there is in the matter of tallness. If you starve yourself during your childhood years, you won't get as tall as you would have otherwise been. There is no way to not be gay, except to not be born to a woman who has had several sons already. How do you manage that, sandy?
I bet most male soldiers wouldn't have any problem with lesbians sniffing around them, their barracks, or anywhere around them...
In my job department we're three men and one woman (me), all straight. Funnily enough, the three guys don't see me as a threat, as we all have significant others, that the others know about. My hubby and the wife of one of the guys are also our co-workers. Btw, I don't see any of them as a threat either, as I know that they would all defend me against any guy or gal that attacked me, including the other guys in the department, and my husband.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
