inhumanity begets inhumanity... and so the cycle remains unbroken

I like to be told the truth, and I believe Rachel Maddow does exactly that in the below clip.
She explains the true reason why Republicans blocked the Defense Authorization Bill (which contained Don't Ask Don't Tell: 'DADT').

A federal judge recently declared DADT 'unconstitutional', and rightly so! It is a disgrace that such a law is allowed ( Read more... )

*stands up and applauds*!!!

My dear, that's very well stated, and I am just glad that this is a public post, because there are quite a bunch of people whom I would recommend to read this!

I wish people would understand that gay people are actual human beings who love and want to be loved, and are capable beiing devoted to each other just as much as heterosexuals do...

Here, here! You stated that wonderfully...how true, how true!

Agree 100%

But I believe truth and justice will win out. One day this will all be just a horrible dream. Equal rights for gays are coming, it can not be stopped. *hugs*

Late as usual, but still want to chime in-

Several things sadden me about this whole situation: the fact that this is still an issue and basic civil rights are being denied, and that the people who have been elected to represent the country are NOT doing so. Based on the polls, this should be a no-brainer.

Yet I know eventually this will be corrected.
