(CNSNews.com) - President Barack Obama, who is vacationing in Hawaii, released a pre-Christmas statement yesterday, celebrating the fifth anniversary of his having signed legislation that allows openly homosexual, lesbian and bisexual individuals to serve in the U.S. military.

“Today, Americans can serve the country they love no matter who they love, and openly gay, lesbian and bisexual men and women in uniform make our military stronger and America safer,” said the president.

Here is President Obama's full statement:

    Five years ago today, I signed a bipartisan bill repealing ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’--extending our country’s promise of equality to those who protect it every day. Today, Americans can serve the country they love no matter who they love, and openly gay, lesbian and bisexual men and women in uniform make our military stronger and America safer.

    Since the repeal of DADT, I’ve received hundreds of letters from service members who can now serve their country openly. They come from every corner of America and from military bases around the world. And their stories are a powerful reminder of how much has changed over the past five years. Because of all we’ve accomplished together, a grieving widow can now receive her wife’s flag at her funeral. A spouse can now be part of his husband’s promotion ceremony. One person told me he had been torn between his desire to serve his country and his longing to live life openly as a gay man. He no longer is forced to make that choice. And just last summer, he was commissioned as an officer in the United States Navy.

I'm sure Il Douche knows quite a bit about bisexual men and women. But the Hustler in Chief knows NOTHING about the uniform and those who wear it, and less about 'mak[ing] our Country stronger'. Not that he wants to.

So if the fact of their bisexuality makes us stronger, doesn't it hold that we should be teaching everyone in the country to be bisexual?

...sounds kind of like online porn to me  :nometalk:
