MILITARY RECRUITS GAYS...IN ERROR

This is wrong on so many levels. Is the military so desperate to recruit pawns for Bush's oil war that they're knowingly advertising on gay sites? A gay professional site, as if professionals often switch to military positions. Or is the military just so stupid (as they now claim and are removing the ads) that they don't even know what fucking sites they are advertising on? And guess who is paying for the ads targeting professional gays who are unlikely to sign up even if the army did know where there ads were going? YOU AND YOUR TAX DOLLARS!

Military inadvertently recruits gays

Several military job listings are posted below "Army Recruiting Command," on the Gay and Lesbian & Everybody Else (GLEE) website, on Wednesday.

The Army, Navy and Air Force unwittingly advertised for recruits on a website for gays, who are barred from military service if they are open about their sexual orientation.

When informed Tuesday by USA TODAY that they were advertising on GLEE.com, a networking website for gay professionals, recruiters expressed surprise and said they would remove the job listings.

"This is the first I've heard about it," said Maj. Michael Baptista, advertising branch chief for the Army National Guard, which will spend $6.5 million on Internet recruiting this year. "We didn't knowingly advertise on that particular website," which he said does not "meet the moral standards" of the military.
