A federal judge has refused the Pentagon’s request to delay a fellow judge’s ruling calling for the armed forces to begin accepting openly gay soldiers.
Make no mistake about it, gays have always served in the military honorably. The difference now is that openly gay (read: flamboyant) soldiers will now be allowed to enlist in defiance of former President Bill Clinton’s controversial “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy.
The policy allowed gay soldiers to remain in the military as long as they kept their sexuality to themselves.
And therein lies the problem, according to flamboyant gay soldiers who believe they should have the right to flaunt their sexual preferences openly.
This latest court ruling is yet another example of the federal courts’ politically correct, sex-based legislation, which meddles in the private sex lives of citizens.
Gays have long rallied for the same rights as oppressed minorities and the handicapped. So far they have been successful in achieving laws prohibiting discrimination — even though the laws are not based on discrimination due to skin color or handicap.
Instead, the laws are based on who we choose to sleep with.
The definition of ‘openly gay’ is open to personal interpretation. To be sure, strict dress code will still be enforced within the ranks. Which means trannies will have a fight on their hands if they intend to wear feminine articles of military issue clothing on the front lines.
But aside from that, the new ruling means a gay soldier can now put a little twist in his hips while he’s marching, without the fear of being discharged discharged.

Being an Air Force veteran and a wife of an active duty member, changing this policy is not a good ideal. When these Marines and Army dudes found out that the person they have been sharing a dirt hole with for months and showering with is gay all hell is going to break loose. People are goin to be killed, point blank. Everyone in the military knows who the gays and lesbo’s are, no need for the policy to be changed so they can feel better bout themselves, and straight people should not have to accommodate their lifestyles and be politically correct around them. When you join the military you know what you are getting yourself into you knew what the rules were and being openly gay was not acceptable. I’m tellin you it’s goin to be a massacre in the Army and Marine branches if this policy is changed.
