WASHINGTON (OfficialWire) — President Barack Obama says he would have no hesitation ordering women into combat and explained that, as a practical matter, they’re already serving that role.
Obama, who spoke with CBS shortly before Sunday’s Super Bowl game, was asked about the recent order ending the Pentagon’s ban on women serving in combat.

Obama and his whole family should be Tied to several POSTS on the front line of the Battle. Let his children be the First to be Inducted.
How many parents would willingly send their children to their deaths, wether they be daughters or sons? Your comment is absent logic and dripping with hatred.
He has no problem sending OTHER people’s daughters into front line combat rolls, but what about ever sending Malia or Sasha?
Maybe the girlyman is really a girl and thus he could then imagine himself playing John Wayne in a tutu.
At least these brave women will serve under this Liberal/commie and they are more of a Man than he will ever be. Obummer hides behind Women’s Skirts/ Dresses . Candy Crowley & Hillary Clinton and all the Liberal Nutty Women.
Obama has no brain. Instead, he thinks with his ass. That’s right. Obama is a Marxist to the core. If you study Karl Marx and the Communist Manifesto he wrote, you will eventually find that Marx also practiced satanism. Therefore, Marxism and communism is the devil’s work. No wonder it always fails. The theory sounds good but it cannot work. Remember that more people died under communism during peaceful times than all wars put together. Marxism is evil and so is obama.
YEP, you are correct.
@Sam
I missed the part where you provided a justifiable correlation between Obama and Communism. Your assertion is that Obama “thinks with his ass” and is therefor a Communist? Can you explain?
subhub, you are obviously too ignorant to comprehend any explanation about Communism. Otherwise, you would be a pro-American patriot and not a Commie lover!
phdphysics, you obviously do not have a PhD in Political Science, otherwise you would understand the term Communism. Why don’t you take this opportunity to educate me on your ridiculous theory. The US is the most powerful country in the world because we are a Democracy. Obama is the leader of the most powerful country in the world, and would benefit from this country becoming Communist how exactly? He has had over four years to disband Congress and declare martial law, and he is waiting for what? Just out of curiosity, have you told anyone face to face that you think Obama is a Communist? What is your contingency plan for when he leaves office in four years, and your little theory goes up in a puff of smoke? Obama’s interpretation of the Constitution is waaay more liberal than mine, but that does not make him Karl Marx. In my comment to Sam, I asked for an explanation as to why he thinks Obama is a Communist. From that, you concluded that I am a commie-lover. Did you just run out of pain meds, or is your turrets acting up again?
Your blindness and imbecile nature of your responses really don’t warrant any response. But I will make a few references and won’t waste much time on the likes of people like you.
I’ll start with your self proclaimed comment that the “US is the most powerful country in the world”. We once was, we are no more. Your king Obama theory of “leading from behind” has dropped our status of “Most powerful country in the world”. Your king has been trying his hardest to cut out and weaken our military as much as he possibly can, using the guise of cutting spending to help our economy and while he is at it, he will weaken our military force and ability to defend ourself. He has told Putin to wait until after his re election so he will have “more flexibility”. Apparently what your king has planned is to make us weaker and more vulnerable for our enemies. Don’t you think that if your kings intentions was going to be in the best interest of the US and popular with the people of the US, he would have made his move before the election to give the illusion that he is some sort of a hero. The fact that he wanted to wait until after the election proves his intentions will not be popular with the people and would have cost him votes if implemented prior to Nov 6th.
Your King is further pushing to reduce our nuclear weapons down to 1500 war heads and eventually down to 500 war heads. Obama is doing his best to dismantle our military and defenses, In the meantime, Russia is building and adding to their defenses. China has just recently created their Navy force. They are building their military at alarming rates both land and sea defenses. I have spent over 15 years traveling to China and working in China and having conversations with Translators that I hire for translation to the customers and myself. Some of these translators major in politics. Several of them have openly stated that China is almost as strong as America and someday they will be stronger than America and indicates that China intends on taking over America when it feels it can be victorious. This was in the 90′s and early 2000′s. Now with Obama’s endless borrowing from them, they have a large interest in America and influence since we are so far in debt to them. Obama has just agreed to selling our resources to China being coal and oil. Rather than cutting down on our foreign dependency for oil and utlizing our own oil resources. Your King says hey lets sell US oil not to US citizens but to Chinese. That way we can keep our hand in the middle east controversy.
China owns a large portion of our debt by which we will likely never be able to pay back, now they own our coal and oil resources and they are buying up thousands upon thousands of acres of land in the west coast and mid west. Sooner or later they are going to demand payment or they will send the debt collector to our doorstep. They are gaining control of the US without firing a shot, through debt.
If you knew anything about Obama’s past influences and mentors you would know that both of Obamas fathers were socialists/ communists (both Senior and Frank Marshal Davis) His Mother Ann Dunham also openly professed that she believes in socialism. Soros, Alinsky the list goes on and on with his mentors by which Obama claims he lives his life through the dreams of his father and references his absolute dedication to his mentors by which he will push their agendas and ideas for them.
“US is the most powerful country in the world”. Not only has and is your king attempting and successfully weakening our strength as a nation but he is also weakening our financial strength in the world economy. We have had 2 downgrades and heading for a 3rd down grade. Prior to King Obama, we never had a downgrade ever, even during the great depression we still maintained a AAA rating. Thats 3 downgrades in 4yrs of one president by which has never happened in our 236 + yrs as a nation.
You spoke of why hasn’t he declared Martial law since he has been in Office for 4 yrs? He hasn’t had to play that card yet because he has been given everything he has asked for thus far. As a last resort, he will use Martial law to accomplish his agenda. Bush created the Patriot Act, we all know, however, It was good enough control for King Obama, it needed to include indefinite detention not only for foreigners but also for US citizens that some government bureaucrats deems to be a threat without due process conducted by a Judge and a jury of peers. King Obama has been having ATF, FBI, CIA, DHS, EPA, IRS, DOA and a whole slew of other government departments arming and stock piling assault weapons and hollow point munitions by the hundreds of thousands. What in the world does the EPA or DOA or the IRS need assault weapons or in their terms “personal defense weapons” when carried by them. It is assault weapons when they are carried by US Citizens. What are they expecting to happen when they come to a dairy farm or a pig farm. Do they expect to be ambushed by illegal mexicans and that is how they justify the need for the assault weapons? or are they afraid they may get assaulted by a farmer aiming a cow teet at them and spraying them with milk? How about the IRS needing assault weapons, they going to go door to door and demand taxes be paid of be placed against a wall with a firing squad. Why do you think your King said he wants to build a police force as strong or stronger than our military? especially when he claims he will have our military back on US soil. If we have our military back in the US, why do we need a police force as strong or stronger than our military when our military will be right here at home to defend us? Because he knows that a large portion of our military will not fire upon American citizens and they take their oath seriously. Unlike our police forces they create and brainwash and manipulate. He needs people or the likes of the CIA, EPA TSA, ATF, DHS and so to do his work because he cannot trust that the military will follow through with his agenda.
How about all the FEMA camps popping up every where across the US stock piling mass graves and coffins coupled with heavy armored vehicles and mock exercises of public riots throughout many areas of the US. No other President has ever felt the need or actually needed the measures put into place, because no other President has intentionally attempted to sell the US out to the highest bidder or forced NWO, agenda 21, and the giving control of America to the U.N.
Obama supports the U.N. Small arms treaty which goes against our Constitution, Obama supports the U.N.’s attempt to seize control of our ports and our waterways through the “LOST” program. Obama supports the U.N. proposal of sustainable land which forces people to live in certain areas and certain areas are absolutely off limits to citizens and a limited and only government approved people can go into or through buffer zones. Whee there will be check points and must show papers to travel across our nation or from State to state and it would be very limited because many areas are shut off from even passing through. You won’t be able to travel by car or RV from the east coast to the west coast without first getting government approval to go through certain areas.
Oh yes, your King supports all these proposals. do your own research:
Start with :
NWO
LOST
AGENDA21
Learn who Frank Marshall Davis, Obama senior, Ann dunham, Aulinsky is and what they believe America should be. It is far from Diplomacy.
China Navy
Obama “more Flexible after election” comment made to Putin
You know, your King, during his 08 campaign stated that Bush’s 5 trillion dollar debt over a 8 year presidency was “Un-American” and “Un-Patriotic”. He also stated that within his first 3 yrs he will cut our deficit in half or it will be a “one term deal” for him. Here we are with our deficit quadrupled since 08 and he has tacked on 6.4 trillion dollars to our debt within 4 yrs as opposed to bushes 5 trillion in 8 years by which made Bush unamerican and unpatriotic. what does Obamas 6.4 trillion in 4 years make him? a hero for sinking the ship at a faster pace?
How about your Kings claim in 08 that this Government will be more “transparent” than any other before. Yet everytime the people demand answers and transparency, such as Benghazi and fast and furious and even Obama’s birth certificate and school records, he hides and stonewalls everything. If he can’t stonewall then he utilizes executive privilege to hide and conceal, any thing but transparent. then there is his over “1000 executive orders”, and that is just in his first 4 yrs. Most Presidents in the past have used this mostly less than a hundred, a few have had upwards of 200. Obama has abused that privilege 10 fold.
I can go on and on pointing out facts, but imbeciles like you refuse to accept facts and do what ever is necessary to ignore or distract from the truths and the facts using the thought that if you repeat it enough it will become true. People like you blame previous presidents such as the Bush blame game, Which I agree, Bush made mistakes. But any of the mistakes that Bush made, Obama has had 4 years to correct and he has certainly not been shy about signing executive orders and violating constitution and federal and state laws to push what he wants. So if there was something that Bush had done that was bad, Obama has had plenty of time to fix it, there fore the Bush blame game is no longer valid and any issues we have today falls directly on the shoulders of your King and the Senate by which is and has been controlled by the Democrats.
Bringing up another point, Since your King has been in Office, There has not been a budget. Considering the Democrats and Obama control the Senate and the executive branch by which Obama could use and abuse his EO to force a budget if he wanted too, then why has he not? If your King can send military troops into foreign Countries for war without congressional approval, then he certainly should be able to enforce a budget without congressional approval. Right?
In 08, Your King campaigned that he supported “marriage between one man and one woman”, because if he didn’t he would have lost votes. Once in Office he declared he will not enforce “DOMA” even though it is a federal law and his oath of office states that he will uphold the laws and the constitution. He lied! In May of last year he flip flopped and claimed that he now supports gay marriage and claims he is evolving. Where does your Kings true principles lie?
Anything your King has said in the past, he has actually done the exact opposite. Another example, Illegal immigration. When it failed to pass in december of 2010 as the Dream Act Amnesty, Obama back door through abuse of executive order, even though it goes against our federal laws on immigration by which he took and oath to enforce our laws. again, he lied.
How many lies will it take for people like you to see through the lies and see the true agenda’s? What will it take? or will you remain loyal and compliant as long as your can keep your obama phone, section 8 vouchers and that check arrives on the 1rst of the month consistently.
@subhub – I meant to also mention, research the “Congressional records of January 10th, 1963 – 45 Communist goals”. Obama is right inline with all of these goals and whats has not been accomplished he is well on the way to pushing every one of the 45 goals to the letter. It is undeniable
Eventually more and more people are going to learn about these goals. Most people blow off the thought of communism being naive to think that it could never happen here. It is and it has been at work towars it goals for a long time. It do it so subtle that it is nearly unnoticeable until it is too late.
Read the list of 45 Communist goals and tell me what goals have not been either accomplished or in the process of being accomplished.

Looks like you are trying to pawn off “The Naked Communist”, a book by a well-known conspiracy theorist, as the Congressional agenda for 1963.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Naked_Communist
Aside from the fact that you are misconstruing history, have you read this list? It’s pretty obvious to me that it was created by someone who was trying to paint a specific picture. The author, Cleon Skousen, was convinced America would fall prey to Communism, yet we won the cold war did we not? Here we are, fifty years later, and people are still attempting to carry on his paranoia. There are genuine reasons to be concerned with our government, but this is not one of them.
Hey sub, You are right on two things, “I do not have a phd in political science and we are a Democracy”. We used to be a Republic! Communism has been happening right before your eyes for the last 50 years and you fail to see it.
You also stated: “America would fall prey to Communism, yet we won the cold war did we not?”
Yes, thanks to Reagan! Obama is attempting to reverse all of that!
Oh well, one is what one is taught! You are obviously the product of the government, liberal run public school system which is a waste of our tax money!
I am not a liberal, nor will I ever be. I am also not a Chicken Little, running around and flapping my wings about silly rumors. You are right, Communism has been happening for the last 50 years, just not here. I am more than happy to give Reagan credit for winning the cold war, which is one reason why I’ve always admired him. And yes, I received my education from public schools. However, if you consider all publicly educated Americans to be your enemy, then you are alienating about 90% of the country. You are choosing to label a whole lot of people as the enemy, including me. That’s your perogative.
Women have already proved there are situations where they can compete with men. Going into combat is not one of them. They are not built to carry all that weight, (40-65 lbs, depending on the mission) over the rough terrain in the Middle East. Privacy and their period are other factors. There are men who will sexually harrass the women and there might be one or two who will try to rape one of the women. All in all it is not a good idea! BTW, I do not think Obama could make it through boot camp!
I’m a woman and I agree with you. You are right women are not built to carry all that weight over rough terrain. I’m 61 years old and would never want to be in combat. Yes, women will be sexually harrassed and possibly raped. But, these so-called “feminists” women don’t only want equal rights with men they want TO BE men. I don’t agree with the “feminists” at all. They defy nature — men and women are different and have different roles. Of course, we all have a right to equal opportunity, but women in combat is a bad idea. I think Obama wants women in combat because he’s doing everything he can to weaken our military. He’s allowed homosexuals to be open in the military and now he wants women in combat. This is weakening our military.
Woman want to be treated equal, I think they should be treated equal. I support there equality. Men are sent into combat to fight and possibly die for their Country, Woman should equally be sent into combat and die for their Country.
I think since we have finally broken the equality barriers, That woman should also be mandated to sign up to the selective service registry as all men are required to do upon turning 18. Fair is fair. Woman want to live and play in a mans world, then they should be able to do so, but they should be held to the same standards and expectations as society demands from men.
They shouldn’t be able to just pick the good things, the perks and the benefits of the mans world and then use the gender clause when the bad comes around to be handed out. Why should only men be expected to die for their Country.
Countries such as Israel for example, is mandatory that all, both men and woman spend 2 yrs serving the military, might be 3 yr mandate now.
Woman want to be independent, in control. They want, no they demand equality. They want to be treated with respect and treated like a lady, a princess or queen. They expect a man to take them out, buy them dinners and expensive things, buy them flowers, open their doors for them. I say give them their equality, for in return the price for equality should be opening doors for the man part of the time, buying dinner and spending their gas money to go on dates, come to the door and pick up the man from time to time. Buy expensive things for the guy, treat the man as a king or a prince in turn for equality.
equality = equal = 50 / 50 split down the middle.
Fact is, not all, but many woman want their cake and eat it too. If they are held to the same or equal expectations that they them self have for a man, then they start back peddling and stuttering.
Not only will there be rapes and attempted rapes but then you will have the other male solders thinking about protecting these females from predators which is not their mission therefore you will have a break down of moral in the most critical situations when clear thinking is a must. After being awake for 24-36 hours in a combat situations the uneeded stress of heteral relationships could prove to be disasterous.
Young people will be young people and jealous behavior could arise and detract from the mission at hand proving to be even more dangerous to all involved.
