House Votes to Cover Cost of Military Sex-Change Surgeries – Patriot Post

National Security Desk Jul. 14, 2017

On Thursday, the House voted down an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act that would have prevented any of the militarys budget from being used to pay for sex reassignment surgeries, as 24 Republicans crossed the aisle to vote with Democrats. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi had caterwauled about the proposed amendment being appalling, disgusting and mean spirited and warned that it would undermine our national security. She further stated, This cowardly Republican amendment targeting transgender men and women in uniform effectively bans these patriotic Americans from serving their country.

Who knew that the number of transgenders in the military was so significant that it would undermine our national security if taxpayers were not forced to foot the bill to entertain the twisted notions of gender dysphoria via sex-reassignment surgery. Last we checked the military does not cover the medical costs of elective cosmetic surgery. Only surgeries deemed to be medically necessary are covered.

Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-MO), the representative who filed the amendment, defended her position in June, stating, Military service is a privilege, not a right. It is predicated on winning wars and defeating the enemy. All decisions on personnel and funding should be made with this in mind. But now evidently having ones sex-change surgery covered is a right.

And speaking of undermining national security, recall one Bradley Manning, the transgender poster, er, boy of the Rainbow Mafia, who was found guilty of mishandling classified information as in deliberately distributing it to Americas foes. How much security has that cost Americans? Not only that, Barack Obama chose to placate the Rainbow Mafias demands when he commuted Mannings sentence. Americans are paying for his transition to female. How again does this make the American military more prepared for warfare? It doesnt.
