Homosexuals in the military, part 2


From Illinois Family Institute http://www.illinoisfamily.org/

“IFI E-Alert: "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" Under Assault
by David E. Smith, Executive Director—Illinois Family Institute

Let your members of Congress know that allowing open homosexuality in the United States military is bad public policy.

On January 27th, President Barack Obama delivered his first State of the Union address. Conservative pundits were hoping that the President would signal a move toward a more centrist platform. That hope was not realized.

Instead of a reconciler who could govern from the center, he seemed to insist on radical Leftist ideology. Obama’s pledge to overturn the Military Eligibility Law of 1993—known as ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’—(a policy that governs homosexuals in the military) is desperately irresponsible. It would place the military in the strange position of actively recruiting personnel who intend to violate the Uniform Code of Military Justice (which prohibits certain forms of immoral sexual behavior).

The Washington Times reported on a poll conducted by the Military Officers Association of America in which it found support for the current ‘Don’t ask, Don’t tell’ policy (16 percent) or an even stronger law excluding homosexuals from the military (52 percent). The same combined percentage, 68 percent, expressed the belief that repeal of the 1993 law would have a very negative effect (48 percent) or a moderately negative effect (20 percent) on troop morale and military readiness.

“‘This anti-military, left-wing policy misadventure must be stopped in its tracks by the American people standing up and shouting a collective ‘NO!’ to the
Democratic/Obama plan to homosexualize the military.’

TAKE ACTION: Oppose President Obama’s goal of homosexualizing and politicizing our American Armed Forces. One homosexual lobby group plans to spend $2 million to pressure Congress on ‘gays in the military.’ Contact your Congressman and Senators by phone [(202) 224-3121; (202) 225-3121; http://www.congress.org/] AND in writing (preferably in a regularly mailed letter or a fax as opposed to e-mail) and urge them to OPPOSE H.R. 1283—which we’re calling ‘Homosexualize Our Military Act.’ The act, mischievously titled the “Military Readiness Enhancement Act,” would impose a pro-homosexuality ‘non-discrimination’ policy on our Armed Forces. Also, tell your representatives to resist President Obama’s reckless plan to homosexualize the military non-legislatively—as the release below describes. President Obama does not have the right to an end-run around Congress and undermine U.S. law on military conduct!

BACKGROUND NOTE: Did you know that ‘Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell’ is NOT the law of the land? Here’s the truth on ‘Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell’ and the law from Center for Military Readiness.

AFTAH Condemns Secretary Gates’ and Admiral Mullen’s Capitulation to Obama’s Radical Plan to Homosexualize the Military

Americans For Truth About Homosexuality President Peter LaBarbera issued the following statement in response to Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Joint Chiefs Chairman Admiral Mike Mullen’s testimony yesterday in favor of President Obama’s plan to allow open homosexuals in the military:

‘At a time of recession and a potentially long-lasting jobs crisis—and the ongoing national security crisis presented by worldwide Islamic terrorism—most Americans do not view homosexualizing our military as a top priority. And yet that is the course that President Barack Obama, and apparently some of his sycophantic military advisers, have chosen.

With Defense Secretary Robert Gates’ pledge to draw up plans to implement President Obama’s pro-homosexual military objective—and to remove a key means of identifying violating homosexual service members (third-party reports on illegal same-sex behavior)—America now faces the spectacle of another grinding, unnecessary, Left-driven policy debate.

The problem for Obama—and Gates—is that the American people have a say in stopping this latest ‘gay’ capitulation. Implementing a pro-homosexual plan in the military will:

1) devastate morale and unit cohesion in our Armed Forces;

2) lead to a drop in enlistment and retention of good soldiers—and discourage religious men and women of high moral character from seeking military service;

3) violate the privacy concerns of normal (straight) service members: will new ‘Gays-Only’ showers be constructed at all U.S. bases?;

4) ultimately subject millions of small-town, traditionally-minded recruits to pro-homosexual ‘diversity’ training (propagandized indoctrination—my addition) that undermines historic Judeo-Christian teachings;

5) further alienate the United States from a Muslim world that already regards us as a decadent nation.

[6) intimidate lower ranking members of the military to follow or acquiesce to their immoral behavior resulting in sexual harassment (Wait! Is it sexual harassment if done by a homosexual activist?) as never before—my addition]

This anti-military, left-wing policy misadventure must be stopped in its tracks by the American people standing up and shouting a collective ‘NO!’ to the Democratic/Obama plan to homosexualize the military.

If Secretary Gates (who also served as President George W. Bush’s Secretary of Defense) and Admiral Mike Mullen—the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff who strongly backed Obama’s plan—were men of courage and principle, they would resign rather than consent to this misguided sexual experiment that will weaken our military. Instead, they have become complicit in the escalating degradation of the homosexual exclusion law under President Obama, who is beholden to his homosexual activist allies.”
