DADT or something similar can easily be changed/fixed/reimplemented.

DREAM act, however, would be far more difficult and problematic to attempt to fix. I’m ok w/ no permanent damage - so far. We still have START to stop.

I agree. This one needed to go down. I’m much relieved.

Glad to hear that regarding DADT. Can this possibly be addressed at the beginning of the next Congress (i.e., amended, repealed, etc.)? Will it be a priority?? I certainly hope so.

Still giddy over the Nightmare cloture vote. I was nervous as heck during that vote.

Quite true. Opening the borders to 100 million new Democrat voters at this time would mean the end of the US Constitution as we know it.

I hope you are correct. If you are not it isn’t the end of the world, people will die, people will be hurt, we will be sued by gays who have had their feelings hurt. I hope our troops are able to handle things covertly and make themselves safe but it will be another hardship placed on them they don’t need.

The bigger problem, and this manipulation of the military as a social issue is a big problem, is that the govt are still ignoring most of us and are doing what they want to do instead of what is right. If most of the rest of us had any training they might realize how much is being done wrong as well. I don’t think it is going to stop until the consequences to them and politicans become personal and very serious.

Just the last two days a game ranger in NJ wrote tickets for not wearing life jackets to people who rescued a deer from an icy river . A Fed bank examiner told a small town Oklahoma bank to take down all the Christian related symbols and statements. This kind of stupidity and intrusion will not stop until there are personal consequences to these “enforcers” that are terribly serious.

I agree with that. Praise the Lord for this one though.

Agreed. DREAM would have been a nightmare and not fixable in the future, ever. DADT has the potential for a later change, especially if it proves to hurt readiness or morale.
