Comment by Geraldo Cienmarcos on January 2, 2011 at 10:43am Where does Goldberg, a staunch conservative, fall on the topic of gay marriage? His feelings may surprise you. Read "As gay becomes bourgeois."
excerpt:
"So now openly gay soldiers get to fight and die in neocon-imperialist wars too?
"David Brooks saw such ironic progressive victories coming. In his book "Bobos in Paradise," he wrote that everything 'transgressive' gets 'digested by the mainstream bourgeois order, and all the cultural weapons that once were used to undermine middle-class morality ... are drained of their subversive content.' "

Op-Ed
As gay becomes bourgeois
With 'don't ask, don't tell' repealed and gays seeking marriage equality, the homosexual bourgeoisie is emerging — a concept subversive to both liberals and conservatives.

Comment by Sentient Biped on December 24, 2010 at 9:53am A couple of videos in the group heading on Uganda. If we were going to have a "Profiles in Hate" series, Scott Lively would be a top-10 contender. He claims that Naziism was led by gays, influenced or coauthored the Uganda bill. I don't know what his thing is with Latvia - I guess few countries will welcome him. He is quoted in conservapedia as stating "" In reality, homosexuality is nothing more than same-gender conduct among people who are innately and unchangeably heterosexual. Homosexuality is thus biologically (and to varying degrees morally) equivalent to pedophilia, sado-masochism, bestiality and many other forms of deviant behavior."
Scott Lively is an example of the evil that results from the combination of religion, politics, and whatever is his personal psychopathology.

And of course you are right, any end to discriminatory practices is to be welcomed.
My post was pointed more towards the irony contained within the Law of Unintended Consequences
(i.e Vote for Gay Marriage, get Gay-Mother-in-Laws)

DADT may be limited to knowing or disclosing.
But what about actual acts of sodomy under US Uniform Military Code?
Uniform Code of Military Justice
ART. 125 of the UCMJ-SODOMY
(a) Any person subject to this chapter who engages in unnatural carnal copulation with another person of the
same or opposite sex or with an animal is guilty of sodomy. Penetration , however slight, is sufficient to
complete the offense.
(b) Any person found guilty of sodomy shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.
