I guess even if you don’t have morals you can still have principles. Immoral principles.

WA ping please. RINO Reichert strikes again.

[chuckles]

...."Ron Paul voted for this sack of crap?"....

You will find plenty of sacks of crap with Libertarians. We get all wee weed up when Paul makes sense, but that usually lasts for about a minute and a half. You should hear his sacks of crap on fighting wars, you will barf. He may run for POTUS again and I hope he doesn't screw up someone that could win.

[Lakeshark]

I know his record, it’s made me not like him very much for a long time.......

Castle (DE)

Hi Palladin! Still gloating over O'Donnell's loss?

Since you were posting hit pieces from a gay advocacy website, is it safe to assume you approve of Castle's vote?

[Baynative]

Can anyone explain what it means to be “openly gay” in the military?

[Eaker]

At least with Paul, you know what you are getting.

Kinda like hiring a pedophile to baby sit your kids because he dusts and is a good cook.

Currently under DADT, homosexuals can serve but not openly. If they engage in homosexual acts or show a likeliness to do so, they can be booted. If they remain strictly celebate, they are OK.

I assume "openly" means that they would be free to engage in homosexual acts with impunity.

[buccaneer81]

Well, with Diaz-Balart and Ros-Lehtinen, I’ve learned that Cubans are apparently big homosexual supporters.

Thanks to matt1234 for the ping.

Say WA? Evergreen State ping

FReepmail sionnsar if you want on or off this ping list.
Ping sionnsar if you see a Washington state related thread.

For anybody still considering voting for or supporting John Bolton for POTUS 2012, you should know he fully supports repealing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell"(DADT):

Asked about the president’s plan to repeal ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,’ Bolton said he is generally in favor of allowing anyone who wants to serve their country in the military to do so. “I don’t have any trouble with that [repealing ‘Don’t Ask, ‘Don’t Tell] assuming it is done in a way that is respectful of the people in the military who have great difficulty with it,” he said. “I don’t think there is any good answer to the question why shouldn’t gays and lesbians who want to serve their country be allowed to do it.”

While he told TheDC social issues “aren’t where I spend a lot of my time,” Bolton said he opposes abortion and has no problem with gay marriage – indeed, he said that gay marriage is “going to happen.” But, he added, “they are fundamentally issues to be resolved politically, primarily at the state level. And I think the notion of creating a constitutional right to abortion or a constitutional right to gay marriage is a mistake.”

Djou, from Hawaii, has turned out to be a wimp. He was defeated in the last election and is being replaced by an uber progressive labor attorney who will make Nancy Pelosi look like a moderate.

1. What is wrong with these people?

2. Also, don’t they realize we are sick of these crap votes being taken practically on Christmas Eve, when it’s obvious these cockroaches think we won’t be paying attention — nor should we have to be spending the holiday season with one on the Christmas tree and the other on our stupid congresscritters.

[Hartlyboy]

At least we got rid of Castle here in Delaware. It cost us a Senate seat but it was well worth it.

[Dengar01]

You gotta get your Rep on a short leash. She’s off the reservation.

Whatever staff member encouraged her to vote for that should be fired. I don't know what to say, I've been out of that loop for a few years. Very disappointing.

She also supports the terrorists in the CIA. I think she is becoming senile and some of the lefty staff members are now calling the shots.

[Racehorse]

I assume "openly" means that they would be free to engage in homosexual acts with impunity.

I wonder. Will there be Special Event Nights at the Officer's and Enlisted clubs? Gawd, the nightmares to come, should the Senate fail to derail this travesty.

[azishot]

Not sure what's up with Jeff Flake though.

Jeff Flake's name says it all. I'm in his district and can't tell you how many letters, calls and emails I've sent him in the past. He's very pro amnesty as well. Yeah, he's big into "no pork" but that doesn't make up for all the rest of the crap he's for! And guess what? In another 2 years he'll run again...and win. Stupid, stupid people around here.

[fieldmarshaldj]

She really needs to retire. That’s a horrible vote.

[Baynative]

"I assume "openly" means that they would be free to engage in homosexual acts with impunity."

Does that mean things like "shower games" or barracks "bunk parties"?

I honestly don't understand how far they mean to take this. I have a gay relative that is very quiet about his lifestyle and relationships. If he were in a military unit I doubt anyone would know his sexual proclivities. But, I've also seen pictures of events like the Dore Alley Fair in San Francisco and wonder if this is they ultimate end for what the left is working on doing to our military.

Coming out of the closet and expecting special rights.
