Nice try on corrupting the data to foster your opinion. Why did the AP article indicate fully 60% of combat personnel felt DADT repeal would adversely affect combat readiness? Your sources - NYT, MSNBC, and CNN aren't exactly unbiased in this matter. So, your article is unworthy of educating anyone seeking the facts. Too bad.

Why is it I am not surprised that McCain opposes repealing the gay ban?

Could it be because he's Republican and thus anti-progressive or the fact that every single Republican in power is trying to defeat anything any Democrat proposes, especially if its Obama?

McCain needs to give his head a shake, something is seriously up with his stance on this issue - I believe he has hidden homosexual desires - hence his staunch opposition to the repeal.

You do realize that science has shown that just because someone is against gays does not not mean they are homosexual as well? Admittedly, I don't have the source (can't remember) but automatically pinning on that is a fallacy.

Unless you're a troll. In which case, U MAD?
