US Navy Suffers Crushing Defeat
Posted by Dave Blount at May 10, 2011 1:04 PM
In the age of asymmetrical warfare, the US military's only defeats are inflicted from within. Unfortunately, that makes them all the more debilitating.
Anticipating the elimination of the military ban on homosexuality, the Office of the Chief of Navy Chaplains has decided that same-sex couples in the Navy will be able to get married in Navy chapels, and that Navy chaplains will be allowed to perform the ceremonies — if homosexual marriage is legal in the state where the unions are to be performed.
The advisory came in the form of an April 13 memo issued to all chaplains, in which the Chief of Navy Chaplains, Admiral Michael Tidd, said the Chaplain Corps was revising its Tier I training manuals, which had previously indicated that same-sex marriages are not authorized on federal property.
Fortunately the war isn't over quite yet:
Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.), a member of the House Armed Services Committee, is concerned that, in its haste to "hustle-in homosexuality," the Navy may be violating federal law — the Defense of Marriage Act.
"Offering up federal facilities and federal employees for same-sex marriage violates DOMA, which is still the law of the land and is bound to the duties of our military, including chaplains," Steve Taylor, communications director for Akin, told CNSNews.com.
However, rule by liberals means that laws that don't fit the agenda are ignored. There are laws against illegal immigration, but they certainly aren't preventing the Southwest from being aggressively colonized by Mexico. Attempt to enforce these laws and the Justice Department will crawl down your throat. That same Injustice Department refuses to uphold DOMA.
Unfolding events were predicted well in advance:
Tom McClusky, senior vice president of government relations at the Family Research Council … said conservatives had warned months ago that the push to repeal the military ban on homosexuality would lead to efforts to introduce same-sex marriage — but were dismissed at the time.
You don't have to be Nostradamus to make a few more predictions. Next will come lawsuits by homosexuals demanding special treatment and promotions. Soon after will follow forced acceptance of transsexual grotesquerie. Not long after that, the communist Chinese military, financed by interest payments on our government's debt, will graciously put the obscenity we're deteriorating into out of its misery — unless we take our country back and put a stop to the moonbattery.
