Pentagon holds first gay pride event
Pentagon holds first gay pride event
>> http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/...y-pride-event/
Quote:
The Pentagon on Tuesday saluted open gays in the ranks, with a civilian lawyer calling on fellow homosexuals to “stretch a little” and become more visible inside the military in the drive for benefits for same-sex couples.
“We need to be as visible as we can be,” Gordon Tanner, principal deputy general counsel of the Air Force, said at the Defense Department’s first gay pride event. “Let us be a bridge to our straight allies.”

As much as I support our military, can we honestly say that the military is still a totally honorable organization when we have let it come to this?

 Unfortunately, no.

Remember, not everyone in the military is like that. The Pentagon has to do what the high brass tells them, themselves appointed by which ever president sits in the Oval Office at the time. One example being william cohen, who was appointed by bill clinton, taking the Ranger's Black Beret and making it a piece of the standard Army Uniform.

Darn, I replied too soon, completely forgetting that even The Pentagon has to do what the higher ups tell them.

We've had Green Berets and Black Berets. How much longer before we have the Pink Berets? Imagine what Monty Python would have done with that one.
