(CNSNews.com) –
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?” [snip]
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.” (read more and see video at CNSNews, hat tip the Last Refuge)

The minute the standards are lowered to accommodate women you will destroy the fighting ability of the military. A goal the left has been wanting to do since the 60s.
