I have been calling to also stop The Dream Act (amnesty). These evil people.

I hope the GOP plans to oppose everything on the progressives’ lame duck wish list.

How about just saying NO to all of it like the voters elected them to do? It must suck to have to make major national policy decisions based on how much face time you can get on TV and who will invite you to the holiday cocktail party.

Anyone that votes to ratify START should be considered a Traitor.

Don’t trust a word Sargent writes but if, if RINO Corker is growing a spine and his GOP colleagues get smart maybe they will derail all 3, Start, Dream and DADT! That would be the best Christmas present ever!

GOP Senator to Dems: If you try to pass DADT, Republicans won't pass START

If you try to shoot me in the foot I won't shoot me in the knee. Such a threat!

In other words, Repubs are saying, throw us a bone and we’ll pass START for you.

This allows the Repubs to pass START and then excuse themselves when they get home.

Refuse to do any more business until after Christmas. If the Dems want to pass it without you, let it be on their heads. They won’t because they don’t have the nerve; they need cover from at least a few Repubs so they can claim it was “bipartisan”.

Neither one of these POS should be voted upon. The premise suggests a trade of one for the other.

I don’t know much about the details of the treaty, but it seems pretty clear that a significant number of the Republicans in the Senate believe that it’s no longer needed. It just doesn’t seem to be all that important.

More damn deals! These damn senators don’t get it. I know what they’re trying to accomplish. Carrot and stick, but by God, START is a *dream* act for the Russians, DADT is a *dream* act for the homosexuals, and the DREAM ACT is AMNESTY!

How about gathering the damn Republicans together to stand against ALL THE DISASTEROUS LEGISLATION?

No, that’s too much to ask of traitors like Collins, Lugar, Snow, Brown and lameduck-spiteful losers.

We held a valid election in November. We, the People, spoke loud and clear.

Now dammit, the Republicans currently seated, need to respect November’s vote! Clearly.

Call the arrogant, corrupt bastards and tell them precisely that.

DON’T PASS ANYTHING MORE IN THIS LAME DUCK SESSION.

NOTHING.

Reminds me of the saying when I was a little boy: “Give them an inch, and they’ll take a mile.”

Any Repulsican that votes for either will be dealt with appropriately. We’ve had it with this cr*p.

Neither DADT NOR START deserve to be passed - this lame duck congress does not have the consent of the governed

That's why Reid is operating in a big hurry like a thief in the night-

Remind me what is the difference in governing philosophy and style between Hugo Chavez and Harry Chavez Reid?

I googled "problem with start treaty" - the first on the list was this, penned by Romney last July.

How about not passing bills or doing anything for the next 3 weeks, other than cleaning out offices for the next occupants?

How about going home to make cookies with the kids?

Imagine there’s no Congress, lame-ducking us to death.

I have a hard time believing DADT is causing erosure in the support for START or even DREAM. But then again who knows why the establishment class behaves as they do.
