Butt Bombadiers! US Had Plans for "Gay Bomb"


A government watchdog group just got the Pentagon to admit to a nefarious plot to build a "gay bomb." No, Red States, not a bomb to eliminate the gays, but a bomb to propagate them instead! Gay's ahoy!
Pentagon officials on Friday confirmed to CBS 5 that military leaders had considered, and then subsquently rejected, building the so-called "Gay Bomb."

As part of a military effort to develop non-lethal weapons, the proposal suggested, "One distasteful but completely non-lethal example would be strong aphrodisiacs, especially if the chemical also caused homosexual behavior."
I can only imagine that we will also be hearing reports in the near future about the Air Force's ill-fated attempt to develop "Gaydar."

My question about all this is, "what about the don't ask, don't tell policy?" A bomb of this nature would be devastating to our troops, who, when struck with 4 kilotons of fag, would immediately have to turn in their fatigues and march home, skipping, in retreat, having been "exposed."
Here is the money quote, btw...be careful not to get any in your hair.
"The Ohio Air Force lab proposed that a bomb be developed that contained a chemical that would cause enemy soldiers to become gay, and to have their units break down because all their soldiers became irresistibly attractive to one another," Hammond said after reviewing the documents.
I guess this would give a new meaning to men getting "dirty in the trenches."

Via CBS5 - Thanks, Marc!

Now the next level of the joke is to begin to discuss - the shape of the bomb or make some rear admiral joke.

I think avoiding these and playing it with the straight WTF - our government really doesn't like gay people angle - was the most effective.

Yet, one wonders if we really did make Iraq gay - would the insurgents be reduced to hissy-fits? Or would they unit to clean this place up and throw a big party? (I'm running out of offensive stereotypes)

Peace.

Insurgent - the word itself, takes on a perverted tone when in this context. Insert-surge...you see where I'm going...
