Dead Constitution See other Dead Constitution Articles Title: Obama top priority - main focus: Getting more Queers in the U.S. Military By: Cliff Kincaid President Obama and his administration apparently havent had enough timethough its been more than a yearto develop a strategy to combat the anti-American terrorist group known as the Islamic State. But the Department of Defense has certainly found enough time and money to celebrate June as Pride Month at the Pentagon and highlight the husbands of top male generals. The celebrations include events inside the Pentagon, posters and PowerPoint presentations, and even a special video from the news agency of the Department of Defense. The Department of Defense also conveyed its approval by rainbow-ing its website. DoD News quotes Defense Secretary Ash Carter as saying that diversity and inclusion are critical to recruiting and retaining the force of the future. He made the comments at Tuesdays Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) Pride Month event held at the Pentagon. Surveys show about one or two percent of the population is homosexual, and the percentage in the military is probably even lower. Yet, considerable Pentagon resources are now being devoted to highlighting their involvement in the Armed Forces and getting more of the LGBT community to join. This months rainbow-colored Pentagon pride poster celebrates victories that have affirmed freedom and fairness, to quote President Obama, except for the more important but elusive victory over the Islamic State. Obamas embarrassing disclosure about having an incomplete strategy to win over global Islamic terrorism has certainly received its share of media attention. We dont have, yet, a complete strategy, he said. The details are not worked out. The comments were followed by a report that the Islamic State is more of a tough fighting force than previously believed because the wives of the leading terrorist figures in the group may play a greater role in operations and communications, and the U.S. has been ignoring them, according to CNN. Perhaps we ought to be paying more attention to the wives of terrorists than the husbands of male generals. Indeed, the wife or husband of a top U.S. general was on display during the Pentagon gay pride ceremony on Tuesday, as reported by Rowan Scarborough of The Washington Times. He noted that Brigadier General Randy S. Taylor introduced his husband, Lucas, at a Pentagon event on Tuesday. Another top Pentagon official, Air Force General Counsel Gordon O. Tanner, also has a husband. In Obamas Orwellian Armed Forces, two men make a marriage, even if one takes the title of wife and the other husband. Or, perhaps, both are husbands. Who knows? I may have to consult the National Lesbian & Gay Journalists Association for the latest instructions on the correct terminology. In any case, while the Islamic State deploys women as trained killers, our Pentagon is celebrating men as husbands for other men. Gen. Taylor was the master of ceremonies for the Pentagons 4th Gay Pride celebration that showcases a month of gay-themed posters and history, The Washington Times explained. The paper added that A panel discussion featured a gay Marine officer, a gay Army sergeant who is a criminal investigator, a lesbian chaplain and a transgender, Amanda Simpson, who is executive director of the Armys Office of Energy Initiatives. The old Army slogan, Be all that you can be, has certainly taken on new connotations. While its apparent that not enough time and attention is being devoted to killing terrorists who threaten America, the DoD has developed a sophisticated PowerPoint presentation on LGBT progress in the Armed Forces. Developed by the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute at Patrick Air Force Base in Florida, the presentation highlights the June 1969 riots at the seedy, Mafia-run Stonewall Inn as the beginning of the gay rights movement. (Obama wants to make this gay bar a national historic site.) The PowerPoint presentation describes the genesis of the rainbow flag, noting that the most common variant consists of six stripes, with the colors red (life), orange (healing), yellow (sunlight), green (nature), blue (serenity), and violet (spirit). The flag is commonly flown horizontally, with the red stripe on top, as it would be in a natural rainbow, it notes. This is important, since the rainbow flag, under Obama, seems to be assuming equal prominence with the traditional Stars & Stripes over some U.S. embassies abroad. As a side note, it appears that the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute has had its own share of problems. The Army colonel in charge of the institute was temporarily reassigned to other duties pending an investigation of alleged misconduct involving inappropriate touching. The Institute has been posting special facts about gay pride month, including this one about the origins of the homosexual rights movement: the Mattachine Society, the first national gay rights organization in the U.S., was founded by Harry Hay in Los Angeles, California. The society sought to change the way homosexuality was viewed by the American public, to integrate homosexual people into mainstream society, and to eliminate discrimination, derision, prejudice and bigotry. Thats interesting, as far as it goes. But what goes unreported is the fact that Hay. the father of the gay rights movement in America, was a communist who was divorced by his wife on the grounds of extreme cruelty. Anybody whose vision has not been colored by the shades of the rainbow flag can see that America has gone soft, to the point where even the Department of Defense has gone over the edge. Few in the media have the integrity to point this out. There can be no doubt that Obamas fundamental transformation of America is well underway and that the Commander-in-Chief is proud of himself for what he has done. Indeed, Obama, in his official proclamation of LGBT Pride Month, 2015, referred to the proud legacy LGBT individuals have woven into the fabric of our Nation
Does that sound familiar? On Tuesday, speaking to the Catholic Health Association, Obama said his health care law has been woven into the fabric of America. Before that, he said that Islam has been woven into the fabric of America. It appears that over the past several years, Obama has been acting as a seamstress, weaving things into the fabric of America that didnt exist until he took office. Left behind in the wake of this exercise in building a new nation are the remnants of the old Americatraditional values, a strong military, and a constitutional system based on free enterprise and limited government. It will be extremely difficult to undo the damage. Poster Comment: Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top Page Up Full Thread Page Down Bottom/Latest

Bill Clinton got the ball rolling on this as soon as he took office.....
"The government ruling us draws its authority not from the principles of the Declaration of Independence, or even from the delegate powers listed in the U.S. Constitution, but rather from the war to re-conquer the independent South. That conflict, usually referred to by the artfully misleading title Civil War, established the fact that the government in Washington is willing to kill Americans in whatever quantity it deems necessary in order to enforce its edicts, and then sanctify the slaughter in the name of some suitably progressive social objective.
That's right! Gays in the military and yet more "abortion rights" were his absolute first order of business -- noisily so. I'm hoping without hope that this will be the year that the sheeple finally notice that as far as the government and Comander in Cheat are concerned, the military's purpose is "teaching tolerance" around the world -- or "busing by bomber" in the rather insensitive term of Robert Whitaker.
