Americans prefer stupid, criminal soldiers to gay soldiers

Writing in the MoJo Blog, Elizabeth Gettleman reports that a new Harris Poll shows that nearly half of Americans--45%-- do not want gay citizens serving as "openly gay" people in the military. 19% said that gay soldiers could serve if they kept their sexual orientation a secret, and 18% said they should not be allowed to serve at all.

Our military is unable to conduct proper intelligence because, in its wisdom, it forgot to hire people who could translate Arabic languages, and most of the ones it did hire turned out to be gay and were tossed out of the service. So much for the "war on terror."

Our military has also lowered the bar considerably in its recruitment of soldiers, now permitting drunk drivers, drug abusers, neo-Nazis, and those who have committed aggravated assault, robbery, vehicular manslaughter, receiving stolen property, and--wait for it--making terrorist threats. So much for soldiers' personal safety.

In addition, 40% of the soldiers recruited by the the U.S. military, as of last summer, scored in the bottom half of the armed forces' aptitude tests. So much for the safety of soldiers again.

So, to review...druggies, thieves, thugs, skinheads, drunks, and stupid people--fine. Gays--not fine. What a country.
