In reply to the discussion: McConnell's Court Martial for sodomy in 67 will be huge [View all]stopbush
(24,396 posts)Sodomy is defined as oral or anal sex between ANY combination of genders - male on female, male on male, etc.
The fact that the military has rules against sodomy is ridiculous on its face, a remnant from an age when certain types of sexual acts were viewed as being evil and unnatural.
I find it highly disturbing that any Democrat would hope that such acts performed 45+years ago between consenting adults would be enough to ruin someone's career in 2013. Aren't we supposed to be the party of sexual tolerance?
Perhaps some Ds would be happy if it could be proven that McConnell was involved in an inter-racial relationship back during the years when such relationships were against the law. It would be the same thing as going after him for his sexual preferences.
