Well it's wasn't a repeal vote. But it's basically a done deal now. This is a great day. Cheesy

Obviously, Kirk can't win either way. If he votes against it, he's a terrible excuse for a human being for calling himself moderate and then voting against the gays.....if he votes for it, well it's obviously just a "show" to keep selling us the BS.

Perhaps you should give him....you know....a little time in office before deciding you hate him?

As I said before the election....it'd be nice if he voted similarly to his time in the House, but I still consider him the lesser evil regardless of whether he goes back to that point or not.

C-SPAN 2 has a thing at the bottom of their screen saying the Final vote will be at 3 PM Eastern today. Anyone else hearing that? I thought they were going to do it tomorrow.

Reid said it on the floor that the vote would be at 3.

John McCain should retire already. He's increasingly becoming a senile old right-wing nutjob.

Good -I prefer that this policy be overturned by Congress rather than through the courts.

About 17 years too late. Other than that I welcome the repeal of this moronic policy.
