    One of the saddest thing to happen to our country since Bush stole the last election.

    Very sad, but I’m surprised it took them this long to do it.

    When a person violates the rules, he/she gets punished. What part of “don’t tell” does he not understand? No sympathy…….

    Why do I get the feeling that after he has the buttsex, RPCV takes a Silkwood shower to get the sin off himself?

    RPCV it must be really hard being you. I cannot imagine what it must be like to have to live in your skin, but there is a way out of your misery, have you ever thought of just parking the car in the garage, shutting the door and ……………………………………………

    Troy that was WAY OVER THE LINE.

    Just because you don’t agree with the commenter doesn’t call for telling him to kill himself.

    You should be ashamed.

    RPVC, you mean to tell me you think the “rule” Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, is a good one?!

    This country’s policies are based on cruel and inhumane policy’s by men do not serve their country, but rather the interests of big business. We are constantly told what a great country we are. That is not how most countries view us as we devastate the middle east in our quest for making our interests their interests. We kill, maim, and destroy people’s lives so a few people can make more money than they will ever need. So they can tell us how to live.

    God never makes mistakes, he created gay people for a reason, therefore they deserve a place in life. Bible thumpers only only see what they want to see in the bible. The bible commands that they sacrifice a chicken or a calf on the alter everyday, or even to burn wheat. How long would they sit in church if they really did even once a week. Religion has become show bussiness, the collection plate is handed over to the moneychangers who Jesus threw out of the temple, and these star TV Evangelists are false idols, since they are not the Lord, and, yet are made wealthy invoking his name. Jesus did not travel by private jet or live in mansions, or be chauffered in Rolls Royces. Jesus did not preach war but only that we must love our brothers as we love ourselves. George Bush, Dick Cheney, Karl Rove and the other cultivate a culture of hate and deceit as acceptable to get what they want.

    They are not good or gratefull people for what they have they only want more and more at the expensive other people’s lives. George Bush and his father are equal to Adolf Hitler, in their quest for purity of race. They just cover it up with PR spin.

    INSIDEGUY, that was great…you got it right, brother.

    InsideGuy – God never makes mistakes? What do you see to a child born with a crippling deformity? What did the child do to deserve it?

    And as far as a culture of hate brought upon by Bush and Big Business, why don’t you check out a site called memri.org. This is a site that translates virtually all the press in countries like Syria, Iran, Jordan, etc. Why don’t you see what their news says about Jews in that paper. About women. About Christians. Why don’t you read that for a small dose of hate…maybe it will make your reconsider how horrible America is.
