Webb to vote ‘no’ on DADT compromise

Apparently Senator James Webb has decided to vote against the Congressioanl compromise bill to overturn the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy currently keeping gay military members in the closet. He reasons;

The White House and Secretary Gates both said today that, ideally, the Defense Department should complete this review before legislative action is taken. There is no question that a review of the policy is necessary and important. I see no reason for the political process to pre-empt it.”

The White House and Congress have been shoving their POS bill around hoping that they can make it appear as if they’re actually doing something for their base besides posturing. Now Webb stands in their way to pass anything they can use as a banner before the election.

So I’m wondering what dicksmith will say. At Vets Voice, he’s been regularly beating up on Republicans who’ve spoken out against repealing DADT before the Pentagon has finished it’s study. I can only imagine how deafening is the silence in dicksmith’s dorm room right now since dicksmith has to change his Depends every time someone mentions Webb. Imagine – Webb agrees with Scott Brown.
