Is This The End for “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell?”

Is This The End for “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell?”
An Effeminate US Military Will Not Win Wars

A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet

*****************

The answer to the question in the title of this piece is, of course, yes, Obama will end the military’s “Don’t ask, Don’t tell” policy. Honestly, now – was there ever any question about how this would play out? Of course not!The entire US Military will change the moment the word comes down from on high. In fact, it has already begun. Many, many, veterans are shamed and disgusted by the decision to throw the doors of the US Military open wide to allow homosexuals to serve openly in the Armed Forces of the United States.

I must tell you that I can no longer recommend a career in the US Military for any heterosexual young man or woman. In fact, I will strongly recommend to my grandchildren to look elsewhere to serve their country, not in the military.

I am of the opinion there should be a policy of zero tolerance for homosexuality in the US Military. That said, you know -- I don’t even agree with the current “Don’t ask, Don’t tell” policy.
“Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” is a part of the “Policy of Incrementalism” the government uses to force Americans to accept something we really detest. They feed it to us as you would feed a child – one bite at a time. Slowly.

The US military has had the “Don‘t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy, for homosexuals in the military, in place since 1993. Under the terms of that policy homosexuals could serve in the US military as long as they kept quiet about their sexual orientation and didn’t go public with it, admit it, or openly take part in homosexual activity. If either occurred, homosexuals were shown the door and bade farewell from the US Military.

Look, in my opinion, having a known homosexual in a military unit disrupts that unit’s cohesiveness. If it happens to be a combat unit, lives are at stake.

The real problem here is this: Too few people in Washington have served in the military, and I include Senators, Congresspersons, Presidents, and even their staff members, to know what the heck they are doing with their social experiments on the military. Try to tell them they are getting Americans needlessly killed and they will stare blankly at you as if they have no idea what you are talking about, and the sad thing is – they DON’T!

Try as you might, you will never be able to convince me that an effeminate US Military can win a battle, let alone a war, against an army of testosterone-charged males rushing at them with the intention of killing every living thing before them. The opposition forces are going to win.

I understand that the US Military is far more into technology to fight and win wars these days instead of the braun, and brute force, and just plain GUTS it took to come to blows with the enemy on a battlefield and fight to win! I know that! But there is still the underlying necessity of motivation. A soldier must be motivated to kill his enemy, the enemy of his country, and thereby remove the threat, forever.

So why IS this coming up now? The answer is simple. A socialist won the last presidential election and became the President of the US. Add to that the increase in numbers in the Congress of ultra-liberal (Socialist/Neo-Comm) democrats cinching their control over the two branches of the government -- and with a Supreme Court that is almost as liberal as it is conservative… and you have to ask???

They intend to strike while the iron is hot. There is no reason to believe they will fail in striking down any and all laws that might keep homosexuals out of the US military. “Don’t ask, don’t tell” is doomed. Bet on it!

A couple of years back I asked why not have a compromise? Why not allow those Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, Airmen, and Coast Guardsmen, whose religious faith bars them from association with known homosexuals, to apply for, and receive, an honorable discharge from the U.S. Military Services? At least show some respect for a soldier’s faith.

Of COURSE, it won’t happen. Because that is a part of the plan… to force the American people, even against their religious belief, to accept a way of life their faith teaches is an “abomination.” We have come to expect this heavy-handed approach to religion, especially Christianity, from the left in America.

And then -- there is the recruitment problem, sure to come, as a result of this “social engineering” experiment by the left. Re-enlistments are going to drop off and new recruits will be few and far between. All this while we are fighting two “hot” wars. That means… what else? The military draft will return. But then, that too is what the socialists want. So, get used to it.

A liberal/progressive/socialist/Marxist take over of the US government has been successful. They now hold the reins of power. America is now a socialist nation -- whether you want to admit it or not.

If you doubt America’s transformation to socialism under Obama’s leadership, we urge you to look up the word socialist in the dictionary and compare it to what our government, under the Obama Regime, has done, so far, THEN, try to convince yourself that America is not a socialist country today!

We “old fogies”, who believe in freedom, liberty, and things like the US Constitution, and the Bill of Rights, had a pretty good run, but we are no longer wanted and the Socialist Eurocrats and Neo-Comms (New Communists) have taken over and have begun to roll back the freedom(s) we worked so hard to preserve since the country’s founding. Their destruction of the hated US Military is just one of their goals. And that is why the issue has resurfaced at this particular time. They have the numbers to do it this time.

It is depressing to watch a nation commit suicide. To watch the world’s only superpower do so is gut-wrenching. But like it, or not, we are witnessing the destruction of a way of life, envied the world over, as the Socialists, the Euro-crats, the Marxists, and Neo-Comms tear down the last best hope of mankind on this planet.
