Woohoo, I'm glad they are there to hamstring the effectiveness of our military. Lets fire 50 more Arabic translators! What do we need faggoty-ass linguists for anyway?

If only there were huge numbers of Democrats to "rectify" such a wrong. If only. Could you imagine a gov't with nearly 60% Democrats? Man, they would turn the military gay in a heartbeat. I know they would.

Ha ha.
Sorry, maybe wasn't clear.
No, that would be that Democrats will SELL OUT er uh f...
gays.
As in, Democrats had the ability to gay up the military, but didn't.
Any idea why'?

I was told Obama was a progressive/liberal.
Did you know that Harry Truman essentially integrated the military with an executive order? Do you know why Obam hasn't integrated gays with executive order? He has no problems with executive orders, I'm sure you are aware.

That's not what my legal people tell me, but I am happy to learn more.
How hard did Obama try?

I'm not a lawyer, of course, and said at the outset that the summary of knowledge, relying on others, says other than what Obama says. And Obama saying so does not make me believe him, he is wrong on a great deal of stuff.
I am happy to admit that I am not that familiar with the legal murkiness of EOs and signing statements and the like, and am happy to learn more about it.
I would imagine that a legal conversation on such subject matter between myself and you would be a carnival extraordinaire and as edifying as an intense debate on the merits of various dental anesthetics.

Or perhaps there are more than one problem with the US. You know, because it's a country, and they are damnably complex things? I know it's inconvenient when there isn't a single problem with a simple fix.
Maybe THE problem is that Americans are too dumb to comprehend complexity.

Hey, you've got a real good point, I wish I would have said it.
However, after walking straight into a teabagging I warned you about over a year ago, calling people dumb may not be a card you have to play in your deck if you get my meaning.
