Navy to Investigate Gay Slurs Videos Shown on Carrier USS Enterprise Capt. Owen Honors

What’s the big deal here?
Are they suppose to show kids videos on a Navy ship? If were going to have openly gay military, then expect to be openly mocked as well.

CBS News reports that the Navy said Sunday it will investigate "clearly inappropriate" videos broadcast to the crew of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in which a top officer of the ship used gay slurs, mimicked masturbation and opened the shower curtain on women pretending to bathe together.

The star of the videos, made in 2006 and 2007, is a former Top Gun pilot who now commands the same ship, the Norfolk-based USS Enterprise
, which was deployed in the Middle East at the time.

The Virginian-Pilot newspaper reported on the videos in its Saturday editions and posted an edited version of one video on its website. In May, Honors was named commanding officer of the Enterprise. CBS News correspondent Bob Orr reports that the ship is scheduled to depart for the Middle East again in just weeks -- but still in question is whether the ship's top officer will be on board.

The Virginian-Pilot reports that crew members complained about the videos when they were first broadcast, more then three years ago. Those who voiced complaints say they were brushed off. Capt. Owen Honors appeared in the videos while he was the USS Enterprise's executive officer - the second in command - and they aired on the ship's closed-circuit television. Honors took over as the ship's commander in May. It's not immediately known why the videos are surfacing now.

The Virginian-Pilot quoted anonymous crew members who said they raised concerns aboard the ship about the videos when they aired, but they were brushed off. It's clear from the videos that Honors had already gotten complaints when some of them were made.

"Over the years I've gotten several complaints about inappropriate material during these videos, never to me personally but, gutlessly, through other channels," he said in the introduction to the video posted by the newspaper.

Allen West: Liberal Progressive Agenda is ‘Antithesis of Who We Are as a Nation’

Go tell it like it is, brother!

Allen West is a breath of fresh air to the GOP and look for him and other Tea Party backed candidates to put pressure on the GOP legacy leaders, aka the Pussies-R-Us club.

I trust the new breed GOP much more than these beltway infected leadership we have now.

Roger Ebert: Starting Over after cancer

Roger Ebert taught me a lot about the fine points of what made a great movie. Watching his show was a must see for movie buffs like myself.

Ravaged by cancer, Ebert refuses to stand down.

CBS News reports that he's been called America's movie critic. For more than four decades, Roger Ebert has guided our choices at the box office. His syndicated newspaper column and trademark "thumbs up/thumbs down" routine with TV partner Gene Siskel were legendary.

But now that famous voice has been silenced. "Do you remember what your last spoken words were?" asked Bowers. "No, because I didn't know they would be my last words, or I would have written something great," Ebert replied.

For the past three years, Ebert has been talking via a computer voice that speaks what he types. His lower jaw is gone, ravaged by cancer that nearly killed him. "Are you able to talk in your dreams?" Bowers asked. "Everything is fine in my dreams. I talk all I want. Life is normal," he said. "Sometimes in a dream I will remember that I can't speak, but then suddenly I can speak again."

Ebert could surely never have dreamed this storyline for his life when he began at the Chicago Sun-Times back in 1967. His elegant style and wit quickly made his movie reviews must-reads.
