The buzz around Washington is that the Defense Authorization Bill might come up for a vote today. The news is it still includes the repeal of DADT (Don't Ask Don't Tell). The other big news is that Joe Sudbay of Americablog one of the hold-out Democratic Senators has been won over. Senator Mark Pryor of Arizona now says he can sign the bill with DADT repeal intact.
If only a couple of Republicans go along it will pass. That is a big "if" but apparently there is hope. I had long ago counted this out, and if it does go through attached to the Defense Authorization Bill I will be amazed and will make all the appropriate apologies. So not wanting to count my chickens, I am still watching the eggs closely!
