Officers voice opinions on homosexuals in military

Chad Groening - OneNewsNow - 8/5/2009 6:40:00 AMOne of the leading activists opposed to homosexuals serving in the U.S. military says she's pleased that a recent poll of military officers shows overwhelming support for the 1993 ban enacted during the Clinton administration.


The poll was conducted by the Military Officers Association of America, or MOAA, with the results recently published in The Washington Times. By a two-to-one margin, the MOAA survey respondents favored the current policy or an even stronger law regarding the ban of homosexuals from military service. The survey also found that 68 percent of respondents believe that repeal of the law would have a negative effect on troop morale and military readiness.

Elaine Donnelly, president of the Center for Military Readiness, says this survey has effectively torpedoed the high-powered PR campaign for homosexuals in the military.

"What they're saying here is, 'Mr. President and Congress, we support this law. We think it would be disruptive to repeal it. And we ask that you support the law or certainly not go along with any efforts to undermine or repeal that law,'" she notes.

Donnelly agrees with The Washington Times article that the MOAA survey is one of several polls that show President Obama will likely meet substantial resistance from inside the military if he moves forward with his pledge to attempt to change the law.

"This is something that the president ignores at great risk," she contends. "This is an all-volunteer force. I've been hearing from service members who are writing to me unprompted saying, 'If this law is repealed, I will not stay in the military, but no one is listening to my voice.'"

Donnelly explains that the Center for Military Readiness is trying to amplify the voices of those who have no other way to be heard.

I'm afraid Obama doesn't care what the military wants,
any more than he cares what the American people want.

To make matters even worse, the military will be under the same pressure the rest of us are under with the new hate crimes legislation. To even defend one's self from untoward advances will be dubbed hatred of gays, instead of hatred for the sinful actions that come with being gay.

It reminds me of the transvestites that entered the Catholic Church in San Francisco demanding communion. They want to get in people's faces and force them to accept whatever they want to do. It will be no different in the military. Gay Pride has not only come out of the closet it's become militant.

Praise God Almighty for the end draws nearer!!

It's certainly looking that way, isn't it?
Seems like lightening speed, too?

I'd say the contractions are about 2 minutes apart.

Obama open the 'flood gate' for all sorts of evil~

True, and the fact that we have to live in the midst of such open perversity is persecution.
We're having it forced into our midst.
From the poor fire fighters in Calif. who were heckled by half naked gays in the crowd, to having them push their way into our churches. Now, with the hate crimes legislation, we will see more and more. We have to be careful even taking our kids out into public because it's "in your face" everywhere. The indoctination is beginning in primary school with "two mommies and two daddies" and the "prince and the prince lived happily everafter." Our soldiers are adults, they will stand or fall, but our children......It's very sad.
