More upside down liberal lunacy .... let's celebrate women serving in combat.
Once upon a time, people had enough sense to view combat as something to be avoided as much as possible, but .... not anymore ... no, no, no ... we should all celebrate the privilege ... woo hoo!
I swear, you just can't make this kind of crazy stuff up.
As a conservative I have no problems with women serving in a combat MOS, providing they are required to sign up with the Selective Service just like men, are drafted (if a draft is ever reinstated) just like men, and are required to undergo the exact same training as men. If not, then they are not only a danger to themselves, but also a danger to everyone else around them.
How does not signing up with selective service or not being drafted make someone a danger to themselves and those around them?
As for the training requirements, women should certainly have to meet the same requirements as men if they are training for the same positions. And those requirements should actually be related to the duties of that position.
All this liberal BS lip service about protecting women and children - yet Obama wants to put our young women in harms way.
I wouldn't care to see or hear of anyone being hurt, but given the choice I'd care much less about you bleeding on a battlefield than a woman or a child.
That's just mho.
I'm a woman, so I think you're a bit confused - LOL.
Either way, it should still be the woman's CHOICE whether or not to take that risk... I don't have any children, so why does it matter if I decide to die on the battlefields? Sure, my parents and siblings would care; but don't the families of fallen men care too? (not that I personally have any interest in fighting, just talking hypothetically)
