Jeffrey T. Kuhner

Negativity

Washington Times

Don't Ask Don't Tell, Jeffrey T. Kuhner & LGBT

Jeffrey Kuhner referencing the repeal of DADT as a contributing factor in "the fall of America."

Moreover, Mr. Obama - again with GOP help - succeeded in getting don't ask, don't tell (DADT) repealed, enabling homosexuals to serve openly in the military. This is one of the most revolutionary and damaging acts ever done to a core American institution. It will decimate the greatest fighting force on earth, undermining unit cohesion, morale and discipline - the lifeblood of a successful military. It is an act of national suicide.

Interview with the Boston Herald

Don't Ask Don't Tell, Sean Bielat & LGBT

Bielat compares Short people to Gays when referencing DADT

There's no absolute right to serve. Men under the height of 5 feet, 2 inches can't serve -- I don't see anybody protesting. Where are the people standing in front of the White House, the short guys standing in front of the White House? You don't see it. We understand that there's no absolute right to serve in all these other areas
