Gays in the military are thrown out. Will Rep. Joe Wilson be??

[CocoaBeachCoco]

This man is a Colonel in the military, and said these comments to his Commander-in-chief. At a MINIMUM, he should be put in the brig for 6 months. I would discharge him from the service, and take his military pension away.

1. Did Joe Wilson rape and kill a young boy in 1990?

[Posteritatis]

2. He's a retired reservist and thus doubly not under UCMJ discipline

I know people want their frothing vengeance and are willing to ignore as many rules as possible to get it, but I'm also pretty sure the GOP wants us all obsessing over this guy so we can be safely ignoring Obama. Anything coming down on him can only come from the civilian side of things.

3. too late - he is retired

4. No, he should not be thrown out just because he is gay.

There may be other reasons to throw him out but that is not fair. Nor is it legal..

[Toasterlad]

5. Um....Yes It Is Legal.

That's the problem. It's the LAW that gays be thrown out.

I think what you meant to say is "Nor is it moral".
