Joe the Rat says everything is good
According to the Connecticut Judas, there are 60 votes and more for the passage of the defense bill with DADT.
Sen. Joe Lieberman said Thursday that repealing “don’t ask, don’t tell” as part of the National Defense Authorization Act is no longer a question of votes, it’s a question of process.So the Republican/Teabaggers will allow the bill to pass if you give them a chance to delay it forever and fuck it up beyond all recognition. And if you don't let them fuck it up they will stop it anyway. But it doesn't matter, because Joe is back in the news.
“I am confident that we have more than 60 votes prepared to take up the defense authorization with the repeal of ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ if only there will be a guarantee of a fair and open amendment process, in other words, whether we’ll take enough time to do it,” Lieberman told reporters at a press conference, naming GOP senators Susan Collins and Richard Lugar as yes votes. “Time is an inexcusable reason not to get this done.”
