WASHINGTON – U.S. President Barack Obama nominated Eric Fanning to become the next secretary of the Army, the White House said on Friday, paving the way for the first openly gay leader of a military service branch in U.S. history.

Fanning is currently serving as acting Army undersecretary, and previously worked as Air Force undersecretary and chief of staff to U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter. His nomination to the post must still be confirmed by the U.S. Senate.

“Eric brings many years of proven experience and exceptional leadership to this new role,” Obama said in a statement. “I am confident he will help lead America’s soldiers with distinction.”

Advocacy groups said the nomination of an openly gay man to lead a U.S. service branch was a significant sign of progress in protecting the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) individuals serving in the world’s most powerful military.

Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

I have to say that I dislike many things about this country, a couple of them is that they are bullies and racists. I also believe that they are responsible for many deaths and wars in the world and that they stick their nose where they’re not supposed to. They do this in the name of “peace” and “for the good of the world” but that’s not true. They only mess with countries that have oil or some resource that can make them more powerful.

I share all these feelings with you, I really do. However, when you express your hatred like that, and say “these disgusting and atrocious people” you sound just like them. You seem like a bully talking down about this man who happens to be gay, and you sure sound like a racist. You sound just like them.
And just so you know, I am not American and I live pretty far away from the US, so…

i HAVE RUN INTO PEOPLE LIKE YOU BEFORE aNDY76.  AND YOU CAN EVEN BE ONE AND THE SAME WITH OTHERS i HAVE ENCOUNTERED BEFORE WHO CAME AT ME SIMILARLY.

first I  am not looking for agreement with you..or with any one at all.  I am looking for truth and efficacy to first help me survive..and since I can do that alone to prove with and to others ways of going forward that would guarantee life for me and for them. 

if I am accurate in my assessment of life, truthful in my expression of what I believe I have discovered and it is proven right to useful extent then there we go with actual factual use value.  if not I stand corrected and and continuing to move to more accuracy as best I can.

if I am useful and truthful you can agree with that.  you have no choice if it is right about reality.  if I am wrong no problem..I am and stand corrected as I have already said

I am not concerned with my usage of words.  were I I would not use the words I use..but look for others more efficacious.  my words are fine and they serve my intended purpose..to convey what I mean and to describe the people I describe as I see them to be.

America/americans constitute a killer nation..the most incredibly murderous and destructive nation of the people humanity has ever produced in its history on earth.  America is a lying nation that tries to convince the world and itself, that it is the opposite of what it actually is.  america could not stand as it is if the american people did not agree with its conduct in the world.  inside america there are processes of selection of personnel to run america that ensures only the people who would do the job american wants, in the way it carries out what it does in the world..actually get those jobs.

which is why there is never a break from the continuous evil and havoc america wreaks on the planet.  this has been going on for more than 200 years now without a break...the most horrible, horrendous, destructive, murderous attack  on the world by white america..the world of  peoples of colour, darker than european whites..French, Dutch, German, Northern Italians, Spanish, Greeks, Scandinavians..but not the Russians and those east of Germany.  I don't know how they feel about black people for example but they have not been part of the western european/american horrific attack on the rest of the planet

I don't have to  convince you of anything but the story is plan for anyone to see.  Planned parenthood is conduction a massive genocide in american itself and has actually, factually commercialized the products of genocide..human baby fetuses.  these bodies the cells of them are used to make flavors for soft drinks which we ourselves buy and drink.  can you think of a greater atrocity ::confused::

and what about if you kill a dog in america..what happens to you?  lots of  trouble  right..but not if you kill babies and make huge quantities of money from the corporations buying fetus to make products and for research to  make  more  products out of them

what about creating refuge crisis..millions of people on the move forced there by american bombs on  their homes, babys ripped away from parents in the melee' and washed up on shores oceans away.  can you think of a greater horror ::confused::

look at hoe Gadaffi was murdered, horrifically in public view and look at the cackling of Hillary Clinton afterwards..' we came we saw he died she crowed in front of TV screens.
but in Libya there were a lot of black people. Libya is Africa the home of black people and Libyans are a fusion between Arab and African.  but the Wahabis hate black Africans and killed them all..a genocide that is ignored.  and all of this was organized by the Americans under the leadership of Barack Obama a black  man as president.....

all of this is stunningly evil, wicked without limit, so evil we are all tainted, traumatized to such an extent that it is doubtful that the human psyche can stand it, can survive under what the americans have done and are doing in the world..that humans are actually capable of american crime and do it non stop.

america constitutes an ongoing existential threat to the existence of humanity on  all  levels of social existence.  it cannot be quantified, a number can be put on it.  it is  limitless... and in all  of this you find my words repulsive..you find my critique of homosexuality repulsive and not the fact that homosexuality has been sanitized and made legal, a human option that leads straight to  human  extinction.

yet there was a time when the gay cause was a simple issue we could support and work for change for those who were.... that the laws for the protection of the people on the books were made to be effected in their protection..from whence the gay movement morphed into a very well financed lobby, powerful and aggressive globally, seeking to force the legalization of homosexuality on the entire planet regardless..

and gays in north america where I  live have become an aggressive group free to impose themselves on society in any way now with legalization, man checking men openly, making moves  on other men everywhere so much so, in a day you must fend off at least one hit on you by a gay male.  fending off routine gay hits is a most disgusting and offensive and uncomfortable thing.  I agree to the rights of everyone...but I do not agree with homosexuality as an act and a life style.yet to defend and vote for the rights of peoples right to their orientation and resulting way of life, should not redound to my general social discomfort

now gay is the new normal, taught in schools to children...the subject of teaching books and courses in school. I did not vote for that.  I voted for the rights of people who through no fault of their own like their own gender in sexual ways yet have the right to life and equal rights to life and to live among themselves in society according to their orientation free from discrimination of any sort.  I did no vote for what  I have seen developing..the aggressive imposition on society of a whole way of life that leads nowhere progressive .

what is progressive is for society to accede to their rights as I have described above so they can live like we all seek to live.  homosexuality leads nowhere, a condition that society will find a progressive way to avoid ultimately.  homosexuality is not a life style that should find expression the way western society has begun to handle it..as an option, a lifestyle we all can indulge in..its truth of as a result of some biologic twist hidden in what is the proselytizing of lifestyle that is bound to impact society in very negative ways the more it expands

the is the american government is forcing all nations to legalize homosexual marriage at high cost if they refuse.  what the hell is behind all this if it is not some clandestine attack on humanity itself, to break up norms and standards to confuse humanity and make it easier to  control.

I don't know about you man but you can find the time in  all of this to be unhappy about my  words that cannot match anything america does in the world, suspect there is racist intent behind them..a possibility you cannot prove at all.  but you can prove by america's actions,  its all consuming and murderous racism in the world, even if its president is  black.. rather half white... and he is  in effect as racist as any racist white male there is

look at what america does in the word as routine.  americas behavior is beyond words, far beyond the  words I  use.  I am swamped really, struggling to finds words to try convey what i mean for I am outstripped by reality

I am not trying to convince you of anything Andy..as I have said.  and I  don't care about your sense of what I said, your response to  me.  feel free to continue to criticize me if you want to and if you do give me something I can use, of value I will  acknowledge and use too.  but if I find you response useless as I do  now I will say so as well.  we will defeat america or it will be the death of us all.  my use if words is  find and consistent with my defense of myself and exposure  of american behavior in the world as horrid, and as atrocious as it is.  if you have better words feel free man. and as you use your better more effective words maybe I will see my way clear to  follow your example.

in the meantime you ought to  be as concerned about you if as one assumes you are a  person of colour in the world and  not an  american person of colour.  in that I can be wrong and will stand corrected if I am

well of course I cant list any such because I don't know of any such american gifts/aid.

if deh gave you 'aid' it was always to further their own business, and to penetrate and tie up your economy into theirs at your disadvantage.  dat way your disaster became an opportunity fuh dem to exploit.

lately disasters in the world, especially famine, became an opportunity to push GMO foods..to contaminate and make your agriculture dependent because the people would plant some of the seed  deh got as 'aid'.

then there was always the possibility of 'mistake' in which the corn america engineered, that sterilizes people, renders them unable to reproduce, could become mixed-up in their 'aid'.  ooops would be a totally inadequate response to any such 'mistake'

dat is why Zimbabwe for eg., never took any 'aid' from america..especially food aid in their famine
