Tomorrow, President Obama will sign into law the repeal of the ridiculous Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy of the Pentagon. For the first time in a long time, the country is taking a major step in the direction of ensuring civil rights for all. Finally, people will be able to serve our country in active military duty regardless of whether they are gay or straight.
It's been a long time coming, and I'm glad it's here! I'm proud of our Congress today.
Up next (I hope): START and aid for 9/11 first responders. Lame ducks? Ha!
