don't ask, don't tell

[Riot]

Did you see John McCain at the hearings? That two-faced liar. During his past he has always said, "if the generals want DADT repealed, I will support them". That is when the generals in power were homophobic fools.

Then in the hearings, (Monday?) He just heard a general tell him that it's time to repeal DADT - and now he's backpedaling. Two-faced hater.

They could do this immediately. Done, over with. Stop lying in our military. What the heck is the big deal? What are they so afraid of?

Well, you shut the phuck up, too, Hooves, as you have nothing concrete to offer on the subject but insult. Said as the ex-wife of a Viet vet with permanent disability.

Edit: Washington Post, today:

Retired Army Gen. Colin L. Powell, who opposed allowing gay men and lesbians to serve openly in the armed forces when he was the nation's top military officer, said Wednesday that he supports efforts to lift the ban on their service.

"Attitudes and circumstances have changed" in the 17 years since Congress, with strong military backing, mandated the "don't ask, don't tell" policy, Powell said in a statement issued by his office. Noting that he has said for the past two years that Congress should review the legislation, Powell said he "fully supports the approach" outlined in testimony Tuesday by Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates and Adm. Mike Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

When you quote someone, you might read it, first.

John McCain is an American hero for his service to our country. As an American Senator, he is also a two-faced liar.

John McCain speaking to Iowa State college students October 2006:

MCCAIN: We have to have the most effective and professional military that we can possibly obtain. I listen to people like General Colin Powell, Former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and literally every military leader that I know. And they testified before Congress that they felt the “don‘t ask, don‘t tell” policy was the most appropriate way to conduct ourselves in the military. A policy that has been effective. It has worked.
And I understand the opposition to it, and I‘ve had these debates and discussions, but the day that the leadership of the military comes to me and says, Senator, we ought to change the policy, then I think we ought to consider seriously changing it because those leaders in the military are the ones we give the responsibility to.

John McCain June 2009 interview:

MCCAIN: My opinion is shaped by the view of the leaders of the military. The reason why I supported the policy to start with is because General Colin Powell, who was then the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, is the one that strongly recommended we adopt this policy in the Clinton administration. I have not heard General Powell or any of the other military leaders reverse their position, just like when on other issues, that people are expert and knowledgeable of, I rely on their opinion. But this is unique. These military leaders are responsible for the very lives of the men and women under their command, and that's why I am especially guided, to a large degree, by their views.

John McCain, outraged the military leaders have now actually changed their minds, February 2010 hearings on DADT repeal:

MCCAIN: I'm deeply disappointed in your statement, Secretary Gates. I was around here in 1993 and was engaged in the debates. And what we did in 1993 is we looked at the issue and we looked at the affect on the military and then we reached a conclusion and then we enacted into law. Your statement is 'question before us is not whether the military prepares to make this change, but how we best prepare for it.' It would be far more appropriate, I say with great respect, to determine whether repealing this law is appropriate and what effects it would have on the readiness and effectiveness of the military before deciding on whether we should repeal the law or not and fortunately it is an act of Congress and it requires the agreement of Congress in order to repeal it. And so your statement obvious as one that is clearly biased, without the view of Congress being taken into consideration...Again you are embarking on saying it's not whether the military prepares to make the change but how we best prepare for it, without ever hearing from members of Congress, without hearing from the members of the Joint Chiefs and, of course, without taking into considerations all the ramifications of this law. Well, I'm happy to say we still have a Congress of the United States that would have to pass a law to repeal Don't Ask Don't Tell, despite your efforts to repeal it, in many respects, by fiat.
