Spreading Santorum: Slick Rick says No Sex in the Military

[marmar]

......(snip)......

SANTORUM: I would say any type of sexual activity has absolutely no place in the military. The fact they are making a point to include it as a provision within the military that we are going to recognize a group of people and give them a special privilege to, and removing don't ask don’t tell. I think tries to inject social policy into the military. And the military's job is to do one thing: to defend our country...

KELLY: What would you do with soldiers like Stephen Hill?

SANTORUM: What we are doing is playing social experimentation with our military right now. That’s tragic. I would just say that going forward we would reinstitute that policy if Rick Santorum was president. That policy would be re-instituted as far as people in, I would not throw them out because that would be unfair to them because of the policy of this administration. But we would move forward in conformity with what was happening in the past. Which was- sex is not an issue. It should not be an issue. Leave it alone. Keep it to yourself whether you are heterosexual or homosexual. ...........(more)

6. Sex...? In the military..? Whoever would have thought...?...

RWNut posts...."Now that homosexuals are openly allowed, what about the others? Transgendered, fetishes, animal love, and who knows what else? I hate to see anyone left out."

I countered...."You obviously didn't know the members of my platoon in the Marines. I think we had all of those plus some you didn't mention. We even had guys from Texas!!! Those guys were truly omni-sexual!"
