What is the issue here? Why is it such a task to repeal this in this day-in-age?

Because we have had a rise in the backward old testament only fundamentalism which calls homosexuality an abomination against their God...and politicians didn't want to upset the voters.

It is quite insane. The divisions we make between each other in the name of the religion.

Yes, politicians don't want to upset voters because people no longer run for office because they can make a difference... they run for themselves and what they can gain. Look at John McCain, he'll oppose anyone in office to further his campaign while I don't think the man actually gives a rats ass about any of it. He's just spiteful and trying to find funding for his 11th house.

I heard that Obama has extended similar benefit options to same sex couples for government workers as of late, is this true?

Yes he has....and I am so glad he finally did it. It truly makes him the most Christian president we have had in decades.

Well certainly the most accepting and fair.

One suggested to me recently that we should be able to be honest about our sexuality but maybe we should address that on civilian land first, then proceed to 'deploying' the strategy into our military. Thoughts?

Why the homophobe? Well, I guess female soldiers are being raped by their male soldiers in the wars..been going on since the war began. Is that what you are afraid of? Men being raped like women are now?
