Sen. Reid, I think it's time to http://www.bilerico.com/2010/07/senator_reid_gets_dan_chois_west_point_ring_as_a_p.php">give Dan's ring back.

1. WOOHOO!!!

:woohoo::woohoo::woohoo:

I hope he makes that a very public affair! Dan could use the props right about now!

[Safetykitten]

2. Now that is class! Nice. Dan needs it, he is a fighter. Good show Mr.R.

[JackBeck]

22. I look forward to seeing Obama give him one of pens after he signs the legislation. n/t

[fascisthunter]

3. very cool

[JackBeck]

4. Choi being interviewed on CNN.

Talking about being diagnosed with PTSD.

And how last Thursday's vote triggered anxiety attack.

[NotThisTime]

24. Is he out of the Hospital? Must be if he spoke with CNN unless it was by phone?

My best wishes go out to him, he's been a huge vocal advocate, a face to an immoral policy.

[Tx4obama]

26. Choi was talking on MSNBC earlier today on the phone. n/t

[JackBeck]

27. On CNN the interview was by phone.

I think he's still in a place where he continues to heal.

[gkhouston]

5. I think it should be done at the bill signing. n/t

[Bluebear]

8. Excellent idea!

[me b zola]

12. I like that idea

...would love for that to come with a reinstatement of Dan's commission. :thumbsup: Just being admitted to West Point is a huge deal, Dan should not have those honors stripped from him.

Much love and respect to you, LT Dan Choi. :toast:

[JackBeck]

14. That would be beautiful. nt

[Krakowiak]

[nadinbrzezinski]

11. Thanks to both of you

Sen Reid for bringing this to the floor, and Lt. Choi for doing what you did.

Oh and yes, President Obama for FINALLY signing this.

Good, we now join other countries in this.

[JackBeck]

23. Better than the company we used to keep under this policy.

[terrya]

13. I'm just beaming today.

Forget what a certain constantly angry, bitter, hateful United States Senator said on the floor of the Senate today. This is a GREAT, HAPPY day for us. The United States is a better country today. We should all be proud.

[leeroysphitz]

15. Who said what, now?

[terrya]

16. The senior Senator from Arizona was being a hateful prick on the Senate floor today.

[JackBeck]

17. I believe terrya is commenting on McCain's awful speech earlier today. n/t

[Tx4obama]

21. Here's a link below to a video of McCain saying what he said

[madmax]

31. Thank you for this great post.

I hope Lt. Choi is at the signing and gets his ring from Senator Reid. Am I asking for too much drama? No, because as our VP has been heard to say, 'this is a big fucking deal.' :patriot:

[JackBeck]

33. It is a 'big fucking deal'.

And please, bring on the drama! I think you and I are on the same page.

[bliss_eternal]

32. Happy to kick...!
