116. Isnt going to cut what?
I dont understand your point. Do you know something about our political system that I dont? Is there some sort of huge progressive political party we could join that would actually have a chance at holding elected office? We can be idealists all we want and complain about the democrats but the cold harsh reality is that they are our only option. See, I like to live in the real world and in the real world, there are only 2 political parties in this country, one of them is full of racist, scumbag pieces of shit who hold disgusting ideological beliefs, and the other party is full of weaklings who are too afraid to stand up for whats right. The difference is that the democrats do good things every once in a while, they actually attempt to fix and reform our system every once in a while.

So I ask you simply, which party had 96% of their representatives vote to repeal DADT and which party had 0% of their reps vote to repeal it? Thats a pretty stark contrast right there and I have no problem voting for the party that does good things every once in a while as opposed to those who purposefully try to fuck our shit up on a daily basis.
