Hopefully Ike Skelton can rally the Blue Dogs to defeat this effort. Patrick Murphy is leading this repeal and he could be vulnerable in his district.

Murphy Watch

I doubt that Mitt Romney will help us much.

"One issue I want to clarify concerns President Clinton’s “don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t pursue” military policy. I believe that the Clinton compromise was a step in the right direction. I am also convinced that it is the first of a number of steps that will ultimately lead to gays and lesbians being able to serve openly and honestly in our nation’s military. That goal will only be reached when preventing discrimination against gays and lesbians is a mainstream concern, which is a goal we share."

Sincerely, W. Mitt Romney

It doesn’t matter to him whether it is implemented or not.

These stupid democrats just don’t know when to sit down and shut up. I think this will be another issue that will work in our favor.

Our US military has done well with the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy. It discourages disruptive behavior such as open hand holding and other displays of affection. It asks homosexuals to conform to military discipline and avoid public statements on sex orientation issues. Those who are heterosexuals are not openly confronted by homosexual sex practices which they may find upsetting. Sexual restraint in the ranks and in barracks is mandated for all personnel. To change and let homosexuals start acting up on base or in the field would not add to military readiness. Sexual politics, and all politics should be kept to a minimum in our military.

Two ways for Lib Presidents to succeed:

1) Sign lib policy into law
2) Say you hoped to sign lib policy into law

This is 1994 all over again.

Only this time it will be MUCH BIGGER!

Do you hear anything about the possibility of Murphy being ousted in PA 8, Smooth?
