In an historic display of corruption and sleaze, the Democrat-controlled US House and Senate -- along with Republican Scott Brown and other RINOs -- effectively voted to repeal "Don't Ask Don't Tell," with the US Senate vote Saturday.
The margin of victory came from Congressmen and Senators who had already been defeated in the Nov. 2 elections, thrown out of office largely because of their support for Obama's radical left-wing agenda. In a cowardly last-ditch jab at America, they rushed it through in a lame-duck session, knowing that the new Congress which begins in a few weeks would never pass it.
They knew full well that the majority of Americans greatly oppose this agenda. All 31 states which voted on "gay marriage" have defeated it, many by large margins.
But particularly outrageous was Sen. Scott Brown, the newly elected Republican from Massachusetts who was swept into office by pro-family and Tea Party support, vowing he'd be the "41st vote" against the Obama agenda and would oppose the DADT repeal. Brown completely abandoned his base and his campaign promises, and blatantly voted to homosexualize the military.
2. WHAT IT MEANS: Massive triumph for homosexual movement. Unbelievable changes to US military
3. HOW IT HAPPENED - Part I: Huge behind-the-scenes campaign by homosexual movement
4. HOW IT HAPPENED - Part II: Continuing failure of pro-family & conservative movement
5. WHAT DO WE DO NOW: Start by abandoning what doesn't work
homosexual agenda ping
Congress shouldn’t be allowed to meet after an election.

Congress does not need to meet 12 months out of the year. They should go home for November and December and not come back until February. That would solve the whole Lame Duck problem. The less time they spend in Washington the less trouble they can make. I wonder what needs to be done to accomplish this?
Filthy, filthy Rats....
Probably a law that would need to be passed by this same corrupt bunch. Frankly, I wish there were a constitutional amendment, limiting the terms these people can serve in Congress. If term limits were imposed on the office of the president, then Congress should be no exception. Six consecutive terms for House members and two consecutive terms for members of the Senate, totaling twelve years for both groups. If they lose before the completion of their consecutive terms, the clock doesn’t restart if they run and win again; that term gets counted to the time they already served. Enough of these career politicians who get so full of themselves that they ignore their constituents. I know, I know. Wishful thinking!
Now, as far as Scott Brown, if that’s true, that Scott Brown vowed to oppose the repeal of DADT and then supported it, then there should be political cross-hairs on his back and he needs to be targeted for a primary fight.
It’s funny how Republicans crumble to the Democrats on socially conservative issues. But can stand so strong when looking out for the interest of the top 5%...
You don't have to tell me! I'm from Massachusetts!I have a front-row seat to it!
