You Get A Free Toaster For Joining…

Kristen Beck is being accused of recruiting trans-people for the military; as the Christian far right keeps pushing to expand their "rights" to discriminate more and more , this accusation is almost laughable,
SEAL Team 6 member becomes Pentagon’s poster girl in transgender recruiting

A former member of SEAL Team 6 has become the poster girl for a Pentagon effort to include transgenders — people who have undergone sex-change operations — in the ranks.

Kristin Beck, formerly Senior Chief Petty Officer Christopher Beck, spoke recently at several high-profile events at intelligence agencies and the Pentagon to promote the integration of transgenders.
[…]
Among Ms. Beck’s recent appearances were speeches at the Defense Intelligence Agency, the National Reconnaissance Office and at Hill Air Force Base, Utah, according to the DIA and her Twitter feed.

Elaine Donnelly, president of the Center for Military Readiness, said the Pentagon’s push to promote transgenders in the military is the latest effort by President Obama to delivery on political promises to special interest groups.

“Before President Obama imposes another extreme element of LGBT law, he should consider the consequences for the majority of men and women in uniform,” Ms. Donnelly said. “They should not be forced to participate in an unprecedented social experiment that does nothing to strengthen our military.”
From Ms. Donnelly you would think that this was the first time that this “unprecedented social experiment” was performed but in reality most of the NATO countries and Israel already have trans-people in their military and we are playing “catch-up” was usual.
