Obama will push the radical homosexual agenda on our troops
As Barack Obama prepares to be sworn in as Commander in Chief on January 20th,homosexual rights activists are gleeful about changes he will bring to the Armed Services. Based on his campaign promises,Obama is expected to overturn the military’s policy regarding sexual conduct. Commonly referred to as “don’t ask,don’t tell” the military prohibits the service of openly practicing homosexuals. This policy was created early in the Clinton administration after a long and divisive fight and the hard fought compromise has drawn the ire of liberals like Obama ever since.
“It’s time to turn the page on the bitterness and bigotry that fill so much of today’s LGBT (Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender) rights debate,” Obama said while campaigning. “The rights of all Americans should be protected —whether it’s at work or anyplace else. ‘Don’t Ask,Don’t Tell’needs to be repealed because patriotism and a sense of duty should be the key tests for military service,not sexual orientation.”
Not reported in the media or discussed by advocates are the opinions of the men and women actually serving our country that would be affected by this change in policy. A poll of some 2,000 active duty military taken in December by the Military Times found that 58 percent opposed a policy change. Of those polled,10% said they would not reenlist,and 14% reported they would consider not reenlisting if the policy is changed to please homosexual activists.
