Here comes the first "political" story in my blog so I am sorry if it comes across boring to those of you looking for some really interesting story about a car chase in Old Saybrook, CT.
"Washington (CNN) -- The House of Representatives voted Wednesday to overturn the ban on openly gay and lesbian soldiers serving in the U.S. military, passing legislation repealing the controversial "don't ask, don't tell" policy."
It is about fucking time House of Representatives. Although, in their defense, the previous bill included other issues dealing with the military and Pentagon spending; So this was the first bill dealing with the whole gay thing that they really got to vote on.
So the bill is repealed 250-175, I think about half way through the counting, they started chanting "warm up the bus, warm up the bus" at the anti-gay members of the House. Everyone is happy and feeling gay, right?
Nope, Republican House Rep. Duncan Hunter of California had this to say... "The United States military is not the YMCA, It's something special." He then went on to say, This is "a liberal crusade to create utopia." Well Mr. Hunter, you now have a bunch of pissed off openly gay people with guns that will not hesitate to bust a cap in your ass (or something else to see if you like it).
How are gay people in the military a BAD thing? Who else would you want spying on other countries male soldiers and polishing their rifles every night? Also, how do you think the military is so well dressed? When is the last time you knew a guy who woke up, made his bed, put on a starched shirt and went outside to work out? Yeah, that's what I thought Representative Hunter.
So today I congratulate the gay soldiers in the military and across the United States for being a little more proud of your country.
