Home/World/The Real Pentagon DADT Poll: 91% Reject Homosexual Leaders — 85% of Combat Marines Distrust — 71% Won’t Share Showers — 24% Won’t Re-Enlist

The Real Pentagon DADT Poll: 91% Reject Homosexual Leaders — 85% of Combat Marines Distrust — 71% Won’t Share Showers — 24% Won’t Re-Enlist

Written by Christian Newswire | Thursday, December 2, 2010

In response to the Department of Defense report on repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, here is the analysis of Former Navy Chaplain Gordon James Klingenschmitts, an activist opponent of any change:

“Don’t believe the phony liberal media reports that 70% of troops support open homosexual service, because that statistic included ‘mixed’ feelings. A closer reading of the fine print in the newly released Pentagon survey shows our troops answered as follows:

“Q45. If you had a leader whom you believed was gay or lesbian…9% positive, 91% negative or mixed impact on unit’s performance.

“Q68c. 85% of Marine Combat Arms, 75% of Army Combat Arms, 64% overall say Negative, Very Negative, or Mixed impact on unit trust if DADT is repealed.

“Q90. 29% would take no action if assigned open showers with homosexuals. 71% would shower at other times, complain to leadership or chaplains, don’t know or do “something else” [including violence].

“Q81. 24% will leave the military or think about leaving sooner than planned. (One half million troops will QUIT the service early, destroying our national security.)

“Q80. 6% will positively recommend service to others after repeal. 94% feel negative, mixed, no effect, or don’t know about recommending military service to others. (Destroying recruiting efforts.)

“Q66. If open homosexuality impacts combat performance, is the impact…9% positive, 91% negative or mixed impact.

“Q71. 11% feel positive or very positive about permitting open homosexuality in field environment or out at sea. 60% negative or mixed. 19% no effect.

“Q73. 5% say repeal would positively boost morale. 41% say negative or mixed impact morale. Rest no effect or don’t know.

“In summary, the real statistics prove our nation faces a NATIONAL SECURITY DISASTER if Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell is repealed, and open homosexual aggression is forced upon our troops against their will.”
