I think Don't ask/Don't tell should be repealed Myself.
however this thread is a joke. This is not a sign of GOP Bigotry, this is yet another Example of a Party with A massive majority. Playing Procedural games With a bill, little More than a month before an election to bash the republicans with it.
You guys are doing a good job of supporting their game, But many of us are not buying it. Last time I checked the Democrats had 58 Votes, plus 2 Independents who caucus with them. As in 60 votes. Filibuster proof.
not to mention the democrats refused to hear a single Amendment to the bill. Most having nothing to do with Don't Ask/Don't Tell. After all it was a Defense spending bill. The Democrats knew full well if they Refused to hear any Amendments from the Republicans. They would Filibuster. Bingo the game is on.
I suggest watching some of the Cable coverage of the US senate on TV. Not the News. I mean the channels that just show you what is going on in the Senate. All day long it was Republicans trying to Get Amendments to the spending in the Bill brought up for consideration and the Dems shutting them down.
Nothing but a game. Falling for this is just silly.
Where is your out rage at the 2 Democrats who failed their party?
The right is filled with sacks of shit.
Democrats don't vote in lockstep because they are NOT 90% white.
Why don't you guys understand this? Republicans leave everything for the Democrats to do because they shit on civil rights and squat on the middle class. They do. We know it. You know it. Everyone knows it.
Republicans vote in lockstep no matter what the American majority wants. They have to lie us into Iraq, pass their bills through reconciliation and squat shit on the gays. They hate Hispanics, Muslim, atheists and everyone not "them".
Quit saying Democrats had the majority. Democrats do NOT vote in lockstep.
Remember, defeating DADT would only take a couple of Republicans. But it won't happen. Why? Because the fuckers vote in "lockstep".
Quit slandering Democrats because Republicans are fuckwads.
Take some responsibility.
My my more Racial accusations and Rhetoric. Not surprised.
Sure because you say so. So when Democrats voted in lock stop to Pass a Health care Bill Most Americans didn't want it was different how?
You mention with disdain all the time that Republicans are 90% white. One might conclude you are racists against whites. IMO
Democrats do indeed vote in lock step 95% of the time. You are simply perpetuating a falsehood over and over. Which will never make it true.
Quit slandering Democrats because Republicans are fuckwads.
How is Pointing out the FACT that several Republican Amendments were indeed offered, and the Democrat leadership refused to even allow debate on any of them slander? Do you deny it happened? I watched the CSPAN coverage sir, I beg to differ.
Take some responsibility.
You mean like you are by ignoring the procedural games the Dems played with this bill, and instead choosing to claim Republicans killed it because they hate everyone. ??
Don't think that just because I am trying to remain more civil in Debates, that I will not call Bullshit when I see it. Your constant generalizations and Racial Accusations about All people on the right, and your constant reference to how the Republican Party is 90% white, as if that makes it inherently bad. Is nothing but clear evidence of your own Racial Beliefs.
