*Wrong yet again, Keith. * *Those are my own original thoughts, not the spin of anyone else.* *I have been working for the right for all to serve since before 1993, and I have an original letter from General Colin Powell to me telling me that a "compromise" would be reached, to prove it. That so called "compromise" was Don't Ask Don't Tell", a "compromise" which failed miserably and ruined many thousands of lives and careers. * ** *I am deeply disappointed in today's Senate vote.* *The Grand Obstructionist Party of No has spoken. Now it is our turn to speak and Vote them all out of office. Take to the streets and protest!*
