<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nYes, my inbox is chocked full of your emails about the Presidential nomination for John McHugh’s replacement as the Secretary of the Army. That nominee seems to be Eric Fanning whose only real qualifications to hold the job is that he knows how to find his new office. Well, that and he knows his way around the penis. From APF<\/a>;<\/p>\n Fanning has been active in gay rights and served on the board of the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund, a group that aims to increase “the number of openly LGBT officials at all levels of government.”<\/p>\n He has held an array of different posts in Congress and at the Pentagon over the past 25 years, including as special assistant and chief of staff to Defense Secretary Ash Carter.<\/p>\n “Eric brings many years of proven experience and exceptional leadership to this new role,” Obama said in a statement.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Every article that I can find mentions his sexual deviancy as a check mark on his resume. In fact, the whole New York Times<\/a> article is about how gay he is and how the Army needs a gay Secretary, and how happy the gay community is that he’s been nominated; <\/p>\n Gay rights groups hailed Mr. Fanning\u2019s appointment.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are thrilled to see Eric Fanning nominated to lead the world\u2019s greatest army,\u201d said Ashley Broadway-Mack, the president of the American Military Partner Association, a support organization for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender military families. \u201cHistory continues to be written and equality marches forward with the nomination of an openly gay man to serve in this significantly important role.\u201d<\/p>\n The Human Rights Campaign, a gay rights organization, called Mr. Fanning \u201cthe perfect choice to lead the world\u2019s best-trained, most dedicated and formidable army.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n I guess it doesn’t matter that he’s never served in the Army, like some of the other choices that were passed over. Somehow being gay makes him more qualified than say, Patrick Murphy, an actual Iraq War veteran. I’m not saying that Fanning’s qualifications are diminished by his deviancy, I’m saying there are many more qualified people for the job. Everyone is focused on his sexual preference for the penis, as if that will somehow win the war and save the lives of the troops. I’d like someone to explain that to me.<\/p>\n I’d also like CNN to explain this headline to me;<\/p>\n![\"Obama](\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Obama-taps-300x228.jpg\")
