GOP Debate Audience Boos U.S. Soldier in Iraq

[Conservative]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHG


yet again the GOP is stuck on the WRONG side of history

yes, certainly 1 or 2 people mouthing off in an otherwise silent audience certainly represents the GOp as a whole.

Go check your Depends, granny.

Homosexuality is immoral and it is a sin. The bible says it. We don't need it in the military.

Killing is a sin. The Bible says it. We don't need killers in the military.

What kind of freedom do you defend? The freedom to conform? The freedom of the 'folkish state'?

So maybe we should attack our enemies with water balloons instead? You're a fucking moron, go away.
That will be the quote of all time right there.

He's not saying that.

He's correctly pointing out the ridiculousness of USAR's 'It's a sin' defense.

Don't know if you've checked lately, but Jesus laid the hippy shit on pretty thick.

Your party is STUCK with these responses.

Its your party and you have to accept them

It is a sign that Americans do not approve of gays in the military. I agree.

Yea, a young American can risk his life defending this country, just as long as WE can decide who they are allowed to love.

USArmyRetired, you are a disgrace to the uniform and a traitor to this nation.

Bad laws are the worst sort of tyranny.

I had no idea that the Bible constituted the law of the land! When did the American Taliban take over?

Fortunately we don't recruit and retain based on the bible. If we did...all those drunkards, adulterers, and shellfish eaters would be discharged.

So isn't killing and If it(being gay) was so important God would have put in his top ten list.

Thou shalt not eat shellfish, it is an abomination unto the Lord????

In 2009, when Obama was sworn in.

 

[Seawytch]

A few of these Republican clowns are saying they would repeal DADT if they ever got in office. How is that supposed to work exactly? Are all the troops supposed to forget that they are serving alongside gays and lesbians?

According to the Old Testament it is...the same OT that religious extremists like to bludgeon gays and lesbians with.

 

[Truthmatters]

why is it the some on the right cant figure out that the bible is not part of the constitution?

In 2009, when Obama was sworn in.

Then why did he act against those righteous Christians by eliminating DADT? No. Obama isn't the American Taliban. Those who want to carry their stilted, stifled, ossified notions of sin, crime, morality and bigotry all cloaked buy some perverted view of the Bible. That's the American Taliban.

Those who would impose what they see as "Christian Values" on all of America. That's the American Taliban. What is the difference between forcing a woman to wear a burka because they interpret the Koran one way and booing an American service man because he is gay?

Conservatism: our link to an oppressive history whether we want it or not.

Some American you are.

 

[Seawytch]

why is it the some on the right cant figure out that the bible is not part of the constitution?

Because many of the religious conservatives think it is perfectly okay to legislate morality when it comes to issues like abortion or equality for gays and lesbians, but think it is sacrilege to legislate things like actually helping the poor.

Isn't that the bit of the Bible they refuse to accept as evidence of contradictions within their own belief, because they say so?

Killing is a sin. The Bible says it. We don't need killers in the military.

Yes, the soldiers should throw roses and daisies at the people trying to shoot them.

Crawl back under your rock.

Does the Bible have a exception for killing?

There is no glory in battle worth the blood it costs.
Dwight D. Eisenhower

Stop thinking you know what the Bible is telling you when all you are doing is abusing it to support your stupidity.

Hold it!

Are you saying you didn't know that?

On September 13, a GOP debate audience cheered loudly at the idea of letting sick patients die.

At the Thursday night debate, they topped their own sick selves, booing an American soldier serving his country in Iraq.


Equality, rightly understood as our founding fathers understood it, leads to liberty and to the emancipation of creative differences; wrongly understood, as it has been so tragically in our time, it leads first to conformity and then to despotism.
Barry Goldwater

Soldiers are immune from being wrong????

I'm not saying he's wrong, but I am saying that soldiers are like everyone else. They start out earning our respect but they can lose is just as quickly with their acts or what they say. We don't have to agree with them just because they're soldiers or combat vets.
