USS Enterprise Captain Sacked

Jim Reeves commentary, Gay, News , , , 1 Comment

Enterprise Captain sacked for inappropriate behavior, videos.

After videos recorded on the USS Enterprise in 2006 and 2007 were publicly released, the US Navy first suspended Captain Owen Honors, then today removed him from command of the aircraft carrier.

Admiral John C. Harvey Jr., commander of U.S. Fleet Forces Command in Norfolk, Virginia said “I have lost confidence in his ability to command the Enterprise”.

The videos, recorded while Honors was second-in-command, showed a “profound lack of good judgment and professionalism” said the Admiral.  The videos, designed to entertain sailors during a six- month deployment, included anti-gay slurs, simulated masturbation and two women, shown from the shoulders up, showering together.  The then-commander was involved in the making of the videos, appears in them, and approved them to be distributed on the ship.

This will effectively end the Captain’s career.  This isn’t Starfleet, or the Federation, where a captain can get away with things simply because he’s half way across the galaxy.

See the Bloomberg article, here.

Oh, and here’s the real, former, Captain of the USS Enterprise:

Senate Passes DADT Repeal, President to Sign Bill Next Week The United States Senate today passed a stand alone bill to repeal the mis-named “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, Don’t Pursue” law enacted in 1994.  In a 65-31 vote, eight Republicans and one Independent voted with the Democratic majority to finally pass the legislation.  It now goes to President Obama to sign into law, which the White House says will happen next week. While the President’s signature will, finally, kill this discriminatory policy as law, … Read More

Ricky Martin

The ostensible reason for this post is to direct you to a The Advocate.com story, about a conservative Miami Florida church protesting a Univision station interview with the pop star, in which he talks about his first gay sexual encounter.  But really it’s just an excuse to post pictures of Ricky Martin.

I think I just figured out why priests wear those flowing robes…

The look on The Pope’s face pretty much proves one of two things:

He’s not gay, or he’s really pissed that he’s so fucking old.
