Advocates Criticize Nominee for Army Secretary<\/a>&#8221; because they think that &#8220;Mark E. Green, a former Army flight surgeon who served as a medic for a special operations team that captured Saddam Hussein, would be a sharp U-turn in civilian leadership of the Army&#8221;. That sharp turn being in the direction of rights for deviants. I got an email from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.palmcenter.org\/palm-center-statement-nomination-mark-green-secretary-army\/\">Palm Center<\/a> the other day expressing their concerns;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cMark Green is a perfect nominee for the people around President Trump who want to start a culture war in the United States military, and who would bring back \u201cdon\u2019t ask, don\u2019t tell,\u201d Belkin said. \u201cThe priorities Green has made a career on in Tennessee directly contradict the core military value of treating everyone according to the same standard. They have the potential of sowing confusion and undermining good order and discipline.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yeah, what were the comments that Green made that would sow confusion and undermine good order? According to the Times;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe are back to where the country was at its beginning, and it\u2019s the armed citizen who will defend this nation,\u201d Mr. Green said then. \u201cAnd there\u2019s something else that we\u2019ve got to protect ourselves from, and it is an overreaching federal government. The notion that Mr. Obama thinks that he can tell the state of Tennessee who can go into a men\u2019s bathroom or a women\u2019s bathroom is absurd.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During that same appearance, Mr. Green was asked what military rank and file thought about \u201cthe social revolutions being imposed upon them by this government.\u201d He responded that \u201cif you poll the psychiatrists, they\u2019re going to tell you that transgender is a disease.\u201d He also implied that gay marriage was as unthinkable 30 years ago as government-sponsored infanticide is today.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In other words, the Times and the LGBT SJWs just don&#8217;t like Trump nominees. It seems to me that an Army Secretary with subordinates on the ground in a foreign country fighting the enemies of our country has more important things to worry about than a bunch of hand-wringing deviants who are angry because he might not let them use the latrine of their choosing.<\/p>\n<p>Also, the LGBT SJWs are mad because Green is replacing Eric Fanning, the first outwardly gay Army Secretary &#8211; the LGBT SJWs were over-the-moon in love with him just because he was gay, not because of any other qualification he may have had for the job of fighting the nation&#8217;s wars.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to Devun for the link.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The New York Times reports that &#8220;L.G.B.T.
