"Don't Ask" Bill FAILS in Senate

VICTORY.



VIA Wisconsin Family Voice: "The resolution is ridiculous, ignores the cautions of the Marine Corps commandant Gen. James Conway, Army Chief of Staff Gen. George Casey, Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Gary Roughead and Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Norton Schwartz, and puts social experimentation and the wishes of a very small minority before national security and military cohesion."  


Agreed.

Senate Republicans have blocked an effort to repeal the law banning gays from serving openly in the military.
The partisan vote was a defeat for gay rights groups who saw the provision in a defense authorization bill as their last chance any time soon to overturn the law known as "don't ask, don't tell."
