Today, the Party of the past has proved again that it is living in the past regardless of what the American people and the pentagon believe, which is that we should repeal Don’t ask, don’t tell.
Day after day we keep falling behind in the world, as we try to hold on to things that have become irrelevant. If we look around at what other countries do regarding gay and lesbians in the military we can see that they have embraced them. We think that we should keep them in the closet as if they were not homosexuals.
Not only is that a regressive policy, it is bad for morale, discriminatory and should be repealed.
It is time to think and live in the 21st century and not in the 1950s, which is what it seems the Republican Party and its faction, the Tea Party Movement, want us to go back to.
God help us if they take any of the two chambers of Congress in the next election.

Good post. I agree with the substance, but not your conclusion. Not much, in my opinion, will change regardless of which party takes one or both chambers of Congress. And God may be preoccupied with problems in other parts of the world, anyway.
