Why We Fight

"The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government -- lest it come to dominate our lives and interests." - Patrick Henry

DON'T BASK, DON'T SELL



Of all the wrongheaded measures Obama and the Democrat majorities in Congress have tried this year, they are about to impose an even more outrageous one: abolishing “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” in the military. This “workable compromise” has allowed active homosexuals to serve their country in the armed forces with less commotion than usual. But now they insist on the commotion.

“Usual commotion ” caused by homosexuals in military outfits have been well hidden by the dominant left-wing media. And this commotion is real poison!

Every former military commander, including myself, can tell stories about how a few sexual deviants can utterly destroy unit cohesion, morale and discipline. Once in the open, everything ugly is now unleashed in a tight military setting: sexual imposition, mental cruelty, bribery, open sodomy in the barracks, envy, blackmail, disease, false accusations, conduct unbecoming officers, brutal assaults and 20 other crimes become exposed, but not often reported.

The unity in a fighting command can be destroyed by open homosexuality in the ranks. Rank is primarily the reason why.

There is a mighty big difference between a private and a sergeant; between a lieutenant and a major. There are 23 distinct ranks (from E-1 to O-10) in most branches of service. In some settings, a person only one rung above you can order you to your death. That person above you can make your life easy, or a living hell.

Sexual imposition on the part of a superior usually leads to living hell.

“Well, you knew I was gay, why did you invite me in?”

On the flip side, false charges from underlings and “righteous victims” have ruined many a career. Havoc and mutiny are not unheard of when lower ranking men and women refuse unnatural advances.

And rumors, both true and false, can change esprit de corps to “esprit de corpse” (pun intended).

The mission of our military is to defend our country by winning wars. Or providing a show of power, which prevents war. Social engineering to make homosexuality “moral and accepted,” if ever possible, is way second.

We already have a cacophony of “discrimination” cases bogging down our military missions. Everyone who is not a tall, athletic, Caucasian, white male has a case.

Will we now add everyone who is not a tall, athletic, Caucasian, white, heterosexual male?

In the future, will any officer who alludes to a problem with homosexuality be the equivalent of General Patton smacking a coward?

When the rule “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” is changed, regardless of what euphemistic name it is given, it will especially emphasize “don’t dare ask” without Mirandizing the entire outfit. As far as “tell,” there will be plenty of that in your face. Count on it.

“Yes, me and my subordinate are in a lesbian relationship, sir.”

“Now, are you going to make trouble for me on my next fitness report?”

If enacted, the new rules will have to involve major revisions in the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), which has served so well for many generations. Further, our military chaplains will all have to be retrained in what is morally right, regardless of what Bible or Koran has taught them. Political correctness and Cultural Marxism will get a big boost.

And our military, as with all American institutions, except central government, will grow weaker.

To many in the military, the inevitable “sensitivity re-training” on Homosexual Rights in the Military will be like a Marxist re-education camp. Enlistments and re-enlistments will fall. And our true military missions will be further weakened for the sake of a “politically correct” agenda.

After this “homosexual transparency” is pushed, expect a rash of billeting quarrels, transfer requests, distrust, false rumors, barracks violence, AWOLs and desertions. Then, an increase in lawsuits, phony “hate crimes,” and all manner of Gay, Lesbian & Bisexual Military clubs will appear, along with more gay enlistments.

Why is such action needed, other than to pander to a militant (but hardly military) homosexual agenda? Does the current regime actually want a breakdown in our national security and another dose of chaos to help destroy America?
