Lawmakers who say the military has kicked out 58 Arabic language experts because they were gay want the Pentagon to explain how it can afford to let the valuable specialists go.

Seizing on the latest discharge, involving three specialists, House members wrote the House Armed Services Committee chairman on Wednesday that the continued loss of such "capable, highly skilled Arabic linguists continues to compromise our national security during time of war."

Benjamin said investigators from the Defense Department's inspector general's office pulled the message logs for one day and reviewed them for violations. Some people, he said, received administrative punishments for writing dirty jokes, profanity and explicit sexual references.

According to researchers at the California-based Michael D. Palm Center, which tracks these issues, three Arabic linguists were fired as a result of the computer reviews. Their names were not released. Benjamin agreed to discuss the incident publicly. The center's director, Aaron Belkin, said, "There is simply no commonsense reason for the military to fire Arabic linguists in the midst of a dire shortage of translators. Translating al-Qaeda cables is more important the making sure that the military is free of gays."

Marine Maj. Stewart Upton, a Pentagon spokesman, said the Pentagon is enforcing the law.

The Defense Department, he said, "must ensure that the standards for enlistment and appointment of members of the armed forces reflect the policies set forth by Congress," he said.

It's not freedom if you compromise your principles in trying to attain it. Queers don't belong in the military, so if you let them in, then what's the point in fighting terrorists?

In a September 2006 speech to the Family Research Council's "Values Voters Summit", Musgrave warned the audience that "the future is grim unless we do what we need to do to win this battle" and that "as we face the issues that we are facing today, I don’t think there's anything more important out there than the marriage issue."

The amputees should pray to Jesus for a new leg.

You expect me to feel sorry for them because they lack faith?

I saw we dress them up like terrorists, and put suicide bombs on all the gays. Then get them to infiltrate the terrorists strongholds, and detonate killing lots of terrorist. It would kill 2 birds with one stone. The gay abominations to the human race, and the terrorists would all be gone. Best idea yet. That is the best solution on getting gays out of the military.
