Tuberville slaps down Warren plan to advance military promos, upholds block over DOD abortion rule
Just The News ^ | 4/25/23 | Ben Whedon

Alabama Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville on Tuesday blocked a plan from Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren to resume Senate approval of outstanding military promotions, which have stalled due to the conservative lawmaker's hold on such proceedings in protest of a Pentagon plan to fund out of state travel for servicemembers seeking abortions.

Tuberville has insisted that the "Biden administration has turned the DoD into an abortion travel agency" with its policy and has vowed to uphold his block on the nominations until the Pentagon changes choices. Strictly speaking, Tuberville cannot single-handed stop all of the military's outstanding promotions outright. Rather, by refusing to grant requests for unanimous consent to the promotions in batches, as is common, he may force the upper chamber to consider the nominees individually, taking up valuable floor time.

Warren sought to secure the upper chamber's unanimous consent on Tuesday to the appointment of Shoshana Chatfield to serve as a vice admiral and represent the U.S. on the NATO military committee," The Hill reported.

Been saying the same thing for many years; the term “Democratic” became the RATS term only a few years ago (don’t remember exactly when), but it hasn’t been around all that long.

Now the word “GAY” has been around for centuries but never used in the context of HAPPY SODOMITES!

According to my Webster’s Dictionary (circa 1949) the word GAY has an entirely different meaning than HOMO!

GAY: Happy, Carefree, Merry, Ebullient, Joyful, etc.

SODOMITE: Someone who engages in oral and or anal sex with a member of the same sex, Homosexual.

It goes on but you can look it up for yourself, just as a side not has anyone, ANYONE ever met a truly happy QUEER?

THOSE WHO CONTROL THE LANGUAGE ALSO CONTROL THE DEBATE!!!!
