At theCNN/Youtube Republican Debate last night, Retired Brig. Gen. Keith H. Kerr asked a very important question to the Republican Presidential candidates:
“Why do you think that American men and women in uniform are not professional enough to serve with gays and lesbians?”
The General is a man “with 43 years of service. A graduate of the Special Forces Officer Course, the Commanding General Staff Course, and the Army War College”. And he’s gay. gasp!
You can view the complete answers of the Republican candidates here. There’s no surprises here folks. No need for me to regurgitate the annoying answers that consistently come out of their mouths.
But after the hard blows of the General towards the “Rep candies”, there’s a back lash of his own looming. The Retired General is a co-chair of Hillary Clinton’s National Military Veterans group. Some in the GOP camp are crying fowl because they feel this gives him a biased association with the Queen bee herself.
Personally, I think the question asked is one that every candidate needs to address as banning openly gay people from serving is an unacceptable waste of resources.
Is the “outing” of the General as a supporter of the Hillary camp something that we should be concerned about? Is there a vast Clinton conspiracy lurking? Her husband did, if I must remind you, enact the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy. How does that relate to this General and Hillary? Time will tell.
