I do not question the ability of "gays" to
fight.

I do not question whether women can fight,
they obviously can and do.
The issue is not whether gays and/or women
can fight...the issue is the myriad problems
caused by their presence within the ranks.
For instance, placing women onboard U.S. Navy
ships for extended durations in close quarters
has already caused a whole list of problems.
This isn't a matter of opinion but fact.
Not only are there the obvious problems of the
inevitable sexual relations and resulting
pregnancies, there are problems with regard to
morale and military discipline.
Consider the position of an Officer of Petty
Officer who must constantly "bend over backward"
not to show any favoritism but must also somehow
seek to avoid even the perception of favoritism
within the ranks.
Consider the disruption which can (and has) been
caused when someone charges "discrimination"
or "sexual harassment".
When you realize that severe punishment may result
and careers may be ended just by an individual
being charged with these things...you should also
realize the precarious position officers and
noncoms are placed in simply by the presence of
these people within the ranks.
This simply isn't conducive to military discipline.
Any commander has enough problems to deal with
without having to add all of the above to the mix.
As to your statement about a lack of proof that
Clinton has intentionally damaged and weakened
our military.....proof of intentions falls within
the same muddy area as proving so-called
"hate crimes".
We know for a fact that Clinton is on record
as stating his "loathing" for the military.
This isn't debatable.
We also know the U.S. Military has been greatly
downsized and degraded with regard to capabilities
while Clinton has been in the White House.
I believe there is enough circumstantial evidence
to support the conclusion that this was done
"with malice and aforethought" on the part of
William Jefferson Clinton.
In the final analysis, it probably doesn't make
any difference whether it was intentional or not.
The damage has been done.
