We just have to look how racism stopped after slavery was outlawed. To know that gays will be fully accepted. Anyone that thinks being allowed = accepted is being unrealistic. I do agree that people should grow up and it shouldn't be an issue, but it will be.

perhaps it's all the Matthew talk . . .

I believe in all this, one point is being missed, the military is unlike any other work place. There are a few jobs similar, but none quite like life and death while deep in some jungle or a desert. Those that seek to oversimplify the situation, for very good reasons I will add, are doing a disservice to those that serve. Support for gays openly serving starts out very strong for those not in the military, then steadily declines the closer you get to having the enemy shooting at you. At least from the stats I heard last week. Not certain what is all should mean, but we seem to be painting this into a blacker and whiter issue than what it really is. And y'all know what a liberal I am, so I would hope no one paints me out to be some homophobe.

Jersey Shores is one show I have never watched, and never will

Picked up an onyX for my girlfriend last night. We also bought the home kit. I guess we're at the next phase of our relationship, gifts of coffee makers (Kuerig) and radios. She asked why we needed the home kit, and before I could tell her she saw the channel lineup and said, this is so *we* can listen to the Sox games

for now. btw if I ever go gay, Denzel Washington or Matthew McConaughey would be my style.

Last week I watched Glory five times and the small parallels between the 54th Massachusetts Regiment and this has me wondering, will we be paying gays less than straight soldiers?

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Dec 18, 2010 -> 10:33 PM) I really don't understand how anybody could be against repealing DADT to be honest. Glad it's gone, and glad Mark Kirk was on the right side of this debate. DADT was a major step forward at the time and was a necessary step forward in making openly gay servicemen and women possible.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 18, 2010 -> 11:43 AM) Would have been a more effective use than a lot of the bailout dollars the fed sent out. exactly. at the minimum sending $10,000 to every American could really spark the economy

wondering why the guy stood so close with a wide stance.

rosemary pork roast, mashed potatos, asparagus, biscuits, peach cobbler with some ice cream.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 15, 2010 -> 01:22 PM) Tex, the short and medium term interest rates right now are still at near record lows, and a huge chunk of the money spent on interest right now is being paid to the federal reserve which owns the bonds, and thus just puts money right back into the government. So then defense, social programs, or infrastructure offer a worse place to spend tax dollars? What if we didn't have interest to pay? What would we do then?

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 15, 2010 -> 12:42 PM) This just proves yet again that liberals will argue ANYTHING, including the opposite of their beliefs, when someone doesn't agree with their viewpoint. huh? So a conservative will not argue with someone who doesn't agree with their viewpoint?

Which helps Americans the least? dollars spent on defense dollars spent on social programs dollars spent on infrastructure dollars spent on interest payments Cut spending or stop cutting taxes.
