Two homosexual advocacy groups are criticizing the decision to award the Presidential Medal of Freedom to retired General Peter Pace. He'll be honored on Thursday.

"Honoring General Pace with the country's highest civilian award is outrageous, insensitive and disrespectful to the 65,000 lesbian and gay troops currently serving on active duty in the armed forces," said Aubrey Sarvis, executive director of the Servicemembers Legal Defense Network (SLDN), in a news release on Wednesday.


"Our men and women in uniform are making tremendous sacrifices for our country and are looking for the president to recognize leaders who offer them praise and vision, not condemnation and scorn," Sarvis stated.


"What do you get for calling LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) Americans immoral and supporting the continued firing of gay Americans?" asked Parents and Friends of Lesbians And Gays (PFLAG) in the group's online blog last Thursday.


"If you're retired General Peter Pace, you get a Presidential Medal of Freedom," the organization said.


"President Bush is preparing to honor the military's self-appointed 'moral monitor' with an honor traditionally reserved for those who defend freedom ... not those who try to deny it to millions of people," the group continued.


"Honoring General Pace for using his personal prejudice to meddle with military matters is just plain wrong," PFLAG added. "There should be no medal for bigotry and intolerance."


Both PFLAG and the SLDN criticized Pace for comments he made during an interview with the Chicago Tribune in May 2007, when the general remarked: "I believe homosexual acts between two individuals are immoral and that we should not condone immoral acts," including adultery.


"I do not believe the United States is well served by a policy that says it is OK to be immoral in any way," Pace told the newspaper.

How did they come up with their statistics? Not saying they're inaccurate, just want to know the method.

They are free to criticize, but I don't think they're really going to influence the President.

They are entitled to their opinion, the General is entitled to his. They disagree with his opinion so they don't want him to get this award. What's next, calling his next employer and asking he be fired?

Not very tolerant folks.

Pace should get the Silver Star just for having the balls to say what he thinks in this PC world we live in.

With Dont ask dont tell ,where the hell did this nut come up with a figure of 65,000 military gays.?

I'm with you. Give this guy as many medals as he can wear on his chest. The homos may not like him but he has a right to free speech. The lefty liberals hate it when the normal righties try to express their opinion. They want it their way and cry and whine when they hear something they don't like. They are kinda like little children, or AndyMarqueerLive and Kerad.

They want their position publicized and it is. Is it your position that gay stories are off limits, same as discussion about Michelle Obama?

I bet anything foodcritic got dumped by a guy he secretly dated in college.

seriously.

I've never met anyone (homosexuals included) so interested in gay people and their doings.

I like computers and post often about them. Does that mean I'm a geek?

I knew that at some point someone would accuse this guy of being gay. I just don't get that. Why is it, that a subject like this, which is controversial can't be discussed without someone accusing the author of being a closet gay?

This is the way people who try to protect this class of people behave. Insult, intimidate, do whatever it is to silence someone who has an opposing view.

Before you attack me, I actually have no more problem with a gay person having sex than a straight person having pre-marital sex. Same thing in my book, and I wouldn't judge either. While I find the thought of two men together repugnant, I don't judge what they do, as I feel that is the way they are born same as me being born a heterosexual. People share views negative to issues here all the time to generate discussion. Why sink to insults about the author?

You know. I am tired of people like you who think that everyone who doesn't approve of the gay lifestyle must be closet fags temselves. I don't think the gay lifestyle is healthy and hope that some day we can find a cure for them. That doesn't make me gay. The though of doing something sexual with another man makes me puke. I just have very high moral values and can't stand to see our society going in the direction it is going. Defend the gays all you want but don't try to make us normal thinking people feel guilty for having a morally correct opinion.

 

[Dork]

Geek Rocks!

Did you really kiss a girl? That's kinda icky! Were you thinking about me when you did it?

Nope. I was thinking about you when I flushed a toilet.

Then quit thinking about it :shrug:

When people like you and foodcritic fixate on the topic, the rest of us think you are interested in the lifestyle.

 

[Dork]

Nope. I was thinking about you when I flushed a toilet.

Was it the big handle you had to giggle or was it the motion of all that water swirling around that reminded you of all that motion in the ocean we could be experiencing?

Don't say it was the turd. I know I'm your favorite and you would never flush me.

It's been discussed and the dead horse has been beaten to death after reincarnation.

Seriously.

We get the picture, the dude hates gay people, the gay culture and anyone/anything that is not utterly offended by something that has no affect on them in the first place.

Foodcritic is the worst kind of human being. The hate and intolerance in him is just beyond definable. If he was on fire, I wouldn't donate the piss to put it out.

 

[Black-Francis]

No, I just find it quite amusing that all the threads that foodcritic starts are about gays. He is quite infatuated with the subject.

And you're demonstrating your tolerance or freedom of speech?
