It's already started: Chairman of the Joint Chiefs to lower physical standards for women.

General Dempsey is the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

He's also a complete scumbag sell out and he is GOING to get people killed.

It's bad enough to have women in the military AT ALL with a lower physical standard: but this asswipe plans on LOWERING STANDARDS for them if not enough can make it in Combat Arms with the current standards.

Scum.  With 4 stars.  Working for a non-serving pogue who hates the military.

Chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff: If Women Can’t Meet Military Standard, Pentagon Will Ask ‘Does It Really Have to Be That High?’

It’s an Obama world.

Even the military is changing its rules to make sure that everybody feels good inside and nobody’s feelings are hurt.

Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told reporters this week that now that women will be serving on the front lines that the military may have to look at requirements and ask,

“Does it really have to be that high?”

Here is the press briefing on the Women in Service Implementation Plan:


CNS News reported:

Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Thursday that with women now eligible to fill combat roles in the military, commanders must justify why any woman might be excluded – and, if women can’t meet any unit’s standard, the Pentagon will ask: “Does it really have to be that high?” 

Dempsey’s comments came at a Pentagon news conference with Defense Sec. Leon Panetta Thursday, announcing the shift in Defense Department policy opening up all combat positions to women… 

… Dempsey replied: “No, I wouldn’t put it in terms of operations, Jim. What I would say is that, as we look at the requirements for a spectrum of conflict, not just COIN, counterinsurgency, we really need to have standards that apply across all of those.”
He added: “Importantly, though, if we do decide that a particular standard is so high that a woman couldn’t make it, the burden is now on the service to come back and explain to the secretary, why is it that high? Does it really have to be that high? With the direct combat exclusion provision in place, we never had to have that conversation.”
