What the hell is Peter Pace thinking?


(Pictured: Alexander, despite his immoral behavior, conquers the then-known world)

Gen. Pace seems to be confused.

Here is the US Army Officer Oath of Office:
I (insert name), having been appointed a (insert rank) in the U.S. Army under the conditions indicated in this document, do accept such appointment and do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter, so help me God.
I don't see anything about homosexuality or morality in there. Maybe Gen. Pace needs to be reminded that lecturing the country on what he considers moral behavior is above his pay grade.
