I agree. So why don’t we start work on making the Senate jellyfish cower to our demands?

Well now there you go. I often say, it is not the mistakes we make, it is our responses to them, that define us. :)

I hold you in esteem for your response. :)

Thank you for the update. This is a sad day. I look for START to pass, too. America is being dismantled as most Americans sip eggnog and sing carols. Back before the Nov. election, I berated a French person who became an American citizen for doubting America, and now I feel like I should look her up and apologize. Where do we go from here? I’m feeling really sad. I don’t want my children to grow up in Sodom and Gomorrah.

DADT is merely a “gateway’ to get a branch of The United States Government to recognize their (homosexuals) sin as a protected right. For purposes of legal precedence for future battles. We are sowing the wind I fear.

Final vote on the repeal of the Don’t Ask Don’t Tell policy in the military (Homosexualization of the military)...

The DADT policy is repealed by a vote of 65-31.

The Roll Call should be available in about an hour here...
