Senate votes 65 to 31 to repeal DADT
The United States Senate today finally understood that the willingness and ability of a person to lay down his or her life to defend our democracy should be the only standard by which we should judge that person's capacity to be a member of our armed forces. All other reasons such as race, creed, religion, national origin, and now sexual preference are irrelevant.
I am proud of our great country for finally recognizing this simple fact.

I've decided to call my Goodreads Author blog, "The Eclectic." As you get to know me, you will find that I have lived my life as an eclectic, enjoy a wide range of interests from Art to Zoology and can be found reading about Supreme Court decisions along with the latest theories of alien abduction.
How did I get this way? Most probably as the result of an insatiable appetite to understand what is happening around me.
Please join me for conversations on anything that comes to mind. One day I may write about the fallacy of "originalism" with respect to the United States Supreme Court. Another day, we'll talk about Sasquatch and other crytozoological wonders.
Occasionally, I will drop in a cartoon or two from my cartoon blog, There is Strangeness in the Universe.
Hope you'll chime in with your comments as well and we will have a delightful conversation exploring all that is great in this world.
