Ideology over Safety

I noted today, an Associated Press report, that our Military has terminated 3 more U.S, Soldiers. Experts in the Arabic language. "Linguists" who search for hints of Terrorist plots against American interests. They were relieved from Duty under the "don't ask, don't tell" policy (regarding their sexual persuation).

To date, the Military has terminated 58 Arabic linguists under this "don't ask, don't tell"
policy.

Let me get this straight (pun intended). We have loyal military personnel, who are willing to protect our national interests against, Terrorist efforts, yet we are going to put our country at a greater risk of Terrorist attack because people who can protect this Nation have a sexual persuation, that is supposedly sinful, and therefore unfit for Duty. However they are fit for Duty if they stay in the closet.

So it's ok to die for your country if you don't make it evident which side of the plate you Bat from.

Ok, homophobes, here's a question for you? Do you think we have Homosexuals in Congress or the Executive Branch? You betcha. Guaranteed both places.

Do we have people in the CIA, FBI, NSA who are homosexuals? You betcha.

Do we have Border Patrol, or Coast Guard personnel who are homosexuals that are protecting our borders? You betcha.

Do we have Sheriff's, or local, State Police who are homosexuals? You betcha.

Do we have clergy who are closet homosexuals? You betcha.

Are you going to stick your head up your arse and pretend they aren't there, and assume all is ok, as long as you don't really know? You bet you are.

Here's a scenario for you. Assume you are being assaulted on a dark street, by someone holding a deadly weapon, and you are screaming for help, and someone runs up to save your life or your virtue. Are you going to accept their help unconditionally, or are you going to ask them first, "you aren't Gay are you?" If they tell you first, they are Gay, but will save you, you aren't going to say "ewww, you fag, go away". You are going to let them save you, then you are going to continue to live your life, in your holier than thou way, aren't you?

That my friends, is Wingnuttery in it's finest.

Hello McFly. Who's running this insane asylum? Don't answer that.

I already know.
