Re: [Peckers_Pics] Twink Wars; Dec 18, 2010 - Safe PICS For All Ages, Rated G



I just watched the news and I have found that the Senate has now repealed this discriminatory policy! I am ecstatic now! Next, the Republicans can see the disastrous effects they were expecting--good luck finding any! YAY! for equality!

I am a USAF bratt and i have notice that the following countries like Italy Japan Germany Sweden and ect they all have excepted enlist homosexual in the forces but we are 100 years behind the times and still not allow homosexuals rome free with in its own branches with this DADT policy. I think US forces is a pompous ass for not allowing this DADT situation be at a stand sill as it is.

I have said it before and I will say it again: These politicians are playing politics with peoples' lives. It is not right in any instance. This is not a distraction, or a ploy. Repealing of this policy will in fact strengthen unit cohesion. It has been stated often by gay soldiers who have come out to their fellow soldiers

Seated Broomstick Twist
 
The broomstick twist is the perfect move to work your obliques, the muscles that run along the sides of your belly. This will help slim your "love handles," the dreaded fat that accumulates just above the hip. Are you ready? Let's begin:

Step 1: Place a broomstick across the back of your shoulders, grip with your hands, and sit on the ball with your back straight, abs tight, and chin up. Twist your upper body to one side.

Step 2: With your chin up and abs squeezed tight, feather your breathing as you slowly twist to the other side though a count of 10 seconds.

Step 3: Hold and squeeze for 2 seconds at the maximum tension point.

Step 4: Return to the starting position through a count of 10.

Step 5: Repeat three times without resting.

A Gay Soldier's Letter Before Leaving For Afghanistan
Huffington Post / Dec 17, 2010
 
I'm writing letters to my loved ones in case I don't return from Afghanistan. I hope my partner never has to open his. If he does, it will ask him to tell who I was, because I couldn't.
I was a teenager when my brother came home with an American flag draped over his coffin, so I understand the fragility of life and the dangers of serving. And the additional burden of Don't Ask, Don't Tell is one I choose to carry. I volunteered for deployment, and I continue to serve. It's my deepest core value, whatever the cost.
The silence is the hardest part. I listen intently as my fellow soldiers talk about facing the reality of leaving their loved ones for a year and all the life events that will be missed. I don't talk about my own experience at all, because it's easier to come across as cold and removed than to risk slipping and mentioning that my loved one is of the same gender. For all I know, there are other gay soldiers in my unit, ones who understand what I'm going through. My gay friends in civilian life are supportive, but they don't often understand the military or soldiering. That camouflage is another burden I carry as I prepare to leave.
It's also difficult knowing that this policy is nothing more than politics. I try not to think too much about DADT and how destructive it is to peoples' lives, to military units, readiness, and to the progression of our country to a better place. But when I do let myself think about these things, I seethe with anger.
I am angry at the politicians who have for several years talked the talk on the policy, heightening the awareness of homosexuality among military personnel, and then done little to nothing to actually change it. We gay soldiers are the ones who suffer but can't openly participate in the debate.
I am angry at certain senators -- John McCain comes to mind -- who have obviously lost touch with any understanding of the current generation of service men and women, who, as we all know, support repeal at overwhelming numbers. They hide behind a vitriolic rhetoric fraught with illogical arguments and innuendo, smothered by their obvious fear.
And so we wait to see what the Senate will do. In the meantime, I have to remind myself to look elsewhere for comfort, to remember the courage of people like Dan Choi and his consistent devotion to changing this policy, at a very personal cost. Or Katie Miller, who made public at West Point who she really is, but would seek return the moment the policy is overturned. I also remind myself of the moral courage of Secretary Gates and Admiral Mullen, thankful that some at the highest level of military leadership get it even as others call our plight a "distraction."
And I'm reminded of the moral courage of my partner, who encourages me everyday to continue to put on that uniform; who believes that some things are worthy of our energies; who quietly plods along and prepares for my deployment as I do the same. I know as a soldier, it is the people we leave behind who bear the real brunt of deployment, who hold it all together, who send the care packages and pray for our returns. He'll have to do it on his own though. There are no support groups for the gay partners left back home.
In the meantime, gay soldiers who are still serving in silence will continue to put on our rucksacks and do what our country asks of us -- and wait.

URGENT:  Boycott Gold's Gym, Target and Best Buy for donating money towards anti-gay political candidates/organizations and to Proposition 8 (California) to prevent gay marriage. I would not purchase "Blood Diamonds," nor should a person / organization be contributing funds to both Hitler / Nazi's and the Jews at the same time!   Obviously giving money to the Jews and not Hitler/Nazi's was the right thing to do.   Hence, these companies violated my trust and well-being.   They gave money to my enemy who would terminate me from my job, deny me housing and send me to a Internment camp.  Therefore, goodbye Gold's Gym, Target and Best Buy!  The CEO's of these companies have been insensitive to our reaction and do not even comprehend their actions!  What takes so long to "fire" these Neanderthals?
