DADT Repeal: Mike Mullen was working for 'TEH GAYS!'

There are times when the American Family Assciation's One News Now is infuriating with its slanted anti-gay coverage.

Then there are other times when you can't help but to laugh.

For example this piece regarding the possible DADT repeal voted on by the House and Admiral Mike Mullen, the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Mullen under fire for 'dereliction of his duty'

A conservative military watchdog who has lobbied hard against repeal of the 1993 law banning homosexuals from military service is blasting the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff for the way he has conducted himself throughout the debate.


 . . . Elaine Donnelly, president of the Center for Military Readiness (CMR), believes Admiral Mike Mullen (USN) should be held accountable for how he has handled the issue of the ban's repeal.


"As the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, he does not have operational responsibilities," she contends. "His sole role is to convey to the president the best professional advice of the other four services.


"He did not do that," Donnelly argues. "Instead, he served as a conduit for the political views of the president. In other words, [he] conveyed views from the president on down rather [than] from the other service chiefs on up. That, I think, was a dereliction of his duty."

That's the gist of the article. To One News Now, Mullen is "under fire" because one activist (who by the way has no expertise in the military at all - as witnessed by her disastrous testimony in front Congress on the issue two years ago) is complaining that she didn't like the way he handled the issue.

And to make matters even more comical is the fact that at the same time this article was published, Mullen was voicing the fact that he didn't exactly like the vote because of the time frame.

Thereby showing just how clueless Donnelly has been in throughout this discussion.

That's not a fire, that's a wet match.
