All I could think about while listening to retired Marine Corps officer and Fox News analyst Oliver North go on and on for the Family Research Council about why it’ll be terrible to repeal Don’t Ask Don’t Tell is: Can’t the dude get a better webcam?
idiot logic

How do you say, “whack job” politely? The Colonel is from an obsolete group of ignorate hate-mongers who prey on creating fear. I estimate that creepy NAMBA represents one-tenth of one percent of gay males.

The same Oliver North who committed high treason in the 80’s?
That Oliver North?

So by his logic, should we not have straight men in the military because a certain number of our soldiers have been charged with rapes in Germany and Japan? Since one of the rapists in Japan was black is North suggesting that black soldiers shouldn’t be in the military?
The pathetic defences they come up with because they don’t want to just come out and say that they are bigots, is stupid.
Hey, Ollie, I don’t want YOU on TV because it may encourage others to steal money and lie to the govt. about it.

Is this a joke? It’s not very funny.

I think the boy scouts have more members of NAMBLA joining than the military does, and its already enforced its ban on homosexuality. So, it would appear that places with bans on homosexuals are more likely to have members of NAMBLA. From what I can tell, the two best organizations for NAMBLA are the BSA and the Catholic Church.

@Jack Scribe: I estimate, oh wait a minute, STUDIES show that the vast majority of people that sexually abuse children, more or female, are STRAIGHT identified. Every time someone wants to throw it on the back of the gay community it makes me wonder when the last time they had sex with a child is.
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
What, with the repeal of DADT are they lowering the enlistment age to seven????

Are we really that surprised about anything that comes out of a Republicans mouth?

@Devon: That’s what I thought. Who is he to pass judgement?

So all Fox/FRC have going for them as poster-boy is a guy who some years ago ran a cover op involving drug smuggling, arms deals with Iran, lying to Congress, and shredding evidence?
I had no idea they were so hard up.

Sir, as a fellow Marine, I am asking you, with all due repsect, to shut the fuck up, Sir.

Oliver North is about as trustworthy as a convicted criminal, because he was convicted for three (3) felonies.
More than likely participated in other crooked & dishonest stuff that cost innocent people their lives.

Anything that could detract from the high standards of the convicted felons, gangbangers, and other assorted upstanding citizens who are welcomed into our armed forces must be opposed!

Because there have been so many female teachers that have slept with their students, Mr. North must now agree that women should not be allowed to teach.
