Platoon of Lesbians Could Chase Us Out of Baghdad
“Yesterday, during hearings on the State Department’s 2008 budget, Rep. Gary Ackerman (D-NY) slammed the U.S. military’s ban on gay servicemembers, saying the Pentagon ’seems more afraid of gay people than they are [of] terrorists,’ and that if the terrorists were smart, ‘they’d get a platoon of lesbians to chase us out of Baghdad.’ Ackerman’s tongue-in-cheek remarks to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice came after noting that Rice had ‘repeatedly emphasized the importance of recruiting qualified language experts to work in the agency.’ Ackerman pointed out that at least 322 language specialists with ’some skills in an important foreign language such as Arabic, Farsi and Korean’ had been discharged from the military since the ban’s inception in 1993.Ackerman suggested that Rice hire the linguists who were kicked out of the military for being gay. The Servicemembers Legal Defense Network praised the idea: ‘Faced with the shortage of language experts, the military would do well to consider Congressman Ackerman’s point. We cannot afford to lose critical personnel because of ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”” — ThinkProgress.org (US)
It’s hard to say which is more enjoyable: the sight of a politician interrupting the dull proceedings of congress with a crazy sci-fi scenario (platoon of lesbians) or the sight of a politician interrupting the dull proceedings of congress with a sensible idea (quit firing gays when they have something to contribute). Humor and reason — what a rare combination in a politician. If you read Rep. Ackerman’s official bio he sounds like a bit of a character. While in Washington he lives on a houseboat called The Unsinkable II. Yes, the first Unsinkable sank, but at least the guy can laugh at himself.
It makes you wonder how Rep. Ackerman would respond to the recent pronouncement by Senator Jay Rockefeller that sex and violence in the media are a “national security issue.” Each politician mixes up sex with the war on terror, but Rep. Ackerman is clearly making a joke. Senator Rockefeller, on the other hand, is deadly serious about an absurdity. How can sex and violence be a national security issue? Is he afraid that young people will learn the ways of perversion by watching tv and then, God forbid, join the army? Sounds like he’s afraid of precisely what Rep. Ackerman knows is a joke: lesbian platoons.
Hey, what about a platoon of gays for us…we could give them a tube of KY jelly and turn them loose when all those Muslims are bent over praying to Allah.
i like the idea of hiring the gay/lesbian linguists back, cause i have to say intothewinds got an “out”standing idea and while osama and his men are receiveing every inch that they deserve the fox network work it for all of our veiwing pleasure.
so another great (crap) reality tv show and for ounce fox would not have to knock off some other networks ideas.
i would personally know that the iraqis arent afraid of getting bent over, they have a word for what they all are “dou dequi” meaning fag, so a platoon of open gays couldnt do no harm over here with us. if this government really wanted us to win the war theyd give us an endless supply of ammo, and REALLY let us out of the cage. id bet we could take over in 2 days max. gay or straight.
hey intothewind, great idea! rofl… all those crazy muslims could USE a good fuck!
