Murkowski just voted yes.

Looks like the MoooCow is going to double down and vote yes on DADT too.

She's vindictive.

Once the commie libs infiltrate the military, they will have just about every respectable American institution wrapped up. The military following the media, the schools, science, marriage, the churches into the big commie lib sewer. Whodda thunk?

[Hawthorn]

>> Miller would’ve voted NO <<

Afraid not. Check your calendar. We’re now seeing the DEAD DUCK senate in action. Even if Miller had been elected, he couldn’t be sworn in until January.
