As Thomas said...YES THERE ARE GAYS IN THE MILITARY. I get it, but probably about 10% or less. Geeze people, get over it. Gays in the military and Gay marriage is not the "NORM" yet. Lets go over every exception to the rule here. The majority of the Military is not gay. Sorry to tell you, but its true.

Sorry Winx, I did not mean to offend, if I did. My point is Howard Stearn crashed his fortune and Rush is making money. I'm not a fan of either of them. Just saying more people believe Rush than Howard. I listen to local talk radio, It;s all I can handle...plus some of this.

I've been called worse. Three legged dog, just plain dog.

Wrong there Girlfriend, Howard Stern took a leap on satellite radio and came up short. Limbaugh is on free AM and rakes it in. Apples and Oranges. Does Sharpton have a radio show? Or Jesse?, Where do they fit in the rankings...just asking.

A mature guy will ditch the girl with mommy.

Yellow, I know I said I would leave, and I lied, my credibility is shot. But do you honestly believe you want to tinker with a military that took down Hitler and Japan, at the same time. Go ahead, but the military has always been best, left alone. That is the best policy, I gave my personal opinions and take the bashing from non vets. But I have yet to see a large group of vets support overturning the way things currently are. The vets are the ones that I listen to, because they know. Sure a few are against it, but hundreds of thousands currently serving are for it...easy one here. I will leave now. It takes me a while sometimes. Sorry for hogging the thread.

You can't listen to AM when you are hip hopping and clubbing. AM is for working people. They only get soundbites on their Ipods on Rush. Most of his stuff is taken out of context, I agree. He still has a show. and is getting rich off of it. Good post, new angle. The old "beat him" card. Love it.

Good points Thomas, but you are a vet, like me, so what the heck do you know. Its the same in the military as it is in San Fran...right? Being sarcastic PEEPS. at least 2 sides to every debate, or am I wrong?

Move out. Easy one there. Even if she moves out will her mom continue to nag her or will the mom let her liver her life?

Isn't that the real issue Yellowrose? Many mothers will not let the kids live and learn on their own. Always giving advice and bailing out, the guy is fighting a 2 on 1 battle from the start. That is just my personal experience. Young Women sometimes have a hard time letting go of mom, and in our society, single mothers have been raising the kids. It seems to be a byproduct. Maybe not in this case but in many cases. Like I said, it's just my experience, but I talk to alot of guys and many are frustrated with the mother daughter connection. I don't see too many fathers calling their kids daily and wanting to be involved in all the drama. We are happy to get rid of it. I know, I am a gender basher to some, but mars and venus is true in some ways.

7 years younger...give or take a few. 5 years older...if she can keep up. jmo


Not sexually so much as daily work and outside stuff.

Your Mom, Your Mom, Your Mom. Listen girls. I mean 20 year olds. I have been married twice. And divorced Twice. Me? Maybe, but all I know is that both of my exe's had to talk to their mom everyday, usually more than once a day. For what! Cut the umbilical cord. Hell, I know what my dad would say, I listened. I don't need to talk to him everyday to get his "thoughts" I hear them in my sleep. jmo

Limbaugh vs Sharpton. Looks like overtime...just me. Limbaugh speaks too much, Sharpton speaks too little.

I gave a first hand opinion. Did you serve? Flattered? No. I just said if I were serving with an openly Gay male in a foxhole, I would question his priorities. But since ther are no records of openly gay men in the military you are saying it would be different. Listen Pal, it has worked pretty damn good for decades, We defeated Hitler, Japan and many fierce enemies with the current policy. But I am sure you havew a better solution. whatever. Tolerance and Liberals are are downfall, not Communism, or Hitler or the likes. jmo. I will not say another word here, so bash me all you want. I don't see former gay military memebers of any sugnificant number saying the current poicy deprived them of anything. Just a fringe group. and rightfully so. Go through basic training everyone. Try it. Bye

Hello people, any military vets here know that "fraternization with the opposite sex is not allowed also. It is not a one way street. jmo

Revisiting is not overturning or changing...yet. It is a chipping away at process. They (Supreme Court) are the 3rd branch and will have a sway, I mean say in final matters involving our life. Gore vs Bush to name one.

I wouldn't exactly call it "walking".

More like stabbing in the dark at anything.

Sorry Yellowrose, I just have seen very few, OK some women I would not do in a foxhole, in my life. I'm not camping on "Brokeback Mountain" with anyone...Just kidding. Don't be sensitive people.


As far as Gay Marriage, I say go for it. Seriously, it's really not all it's cracked up to be. The divorce lawyers are just waiting for this bubble to grow. Don't do it!...jmo

My dog has four legs and sometimes five.

As a vet I am perplexed over this. Personally I do not want to be in a foxhole with a gay male. Not homophobic, just want to be sure he wants to get home alive to see his girl as much as I wanted to live to see mine. Instead of, why worry about that when I have a lover right here. Sounds twisted, don't bash me, but I did it and those were my thoughts at the time. What are my teammates (someone who I am putting my life in their hands as I cat nap at 3 am) Is he looking at me or looking for the enemy. I know it does not make sense to many, but I would not want to be in a foxhole with a female either.

Unions are the scapegoat here Krupa. Jmo. Unemployment going up in the summer is really strange to me. That is my barometer on the economy. Jobs are always created in the summer, and decrease in the winter in 4 season states. Wait till this winter, jobs will be lost still. Our so called free trade policies of the last 15 years have totally cut the legs out of the American worker. Soon it will be upper class and lower class, no more middle. Just like the rest of the world. After all it is a "Global Economy" not a US economy.
