Congratulations to our LGBT community on a battle well fought and won!
One step forward with the repeal of DADT. Some more light to dispel a bit of the darkness in the world. Well done.

3. Indeed.
Sometimes people like to say that the time had come, as if social conditions just magically became better. The truth is that the gay rights community made the time come--made people slowly change their minds--until public opinion and even military opinion became overwhelming.

A well-deserved congratulations to them.

Congratulations
to the brave people who fight for the repeal of DADT. They deserve to bask in the victory today. We all win anytime a discriminatory law is overturned.

And a thanks to the Congresscritters who chose to do the right thing -- history will look kindly on them for this. And the others? You will be looked on as the backwards assholes you are.
