It's an effin' good day to be a Democrat.
We've had our ups and downs, wins and losses - all a part of who we are. And will likely continue to be.

Today, though, it's just an effin' good day to be a Democrat. Kudos to all. :thumbsup:

(side note to the more simplistic RW extremists - Obama delayed his vacation to take care of business. There was no "fly-over" on these issues. Obama and our party stayed in town to get them done.)

4. Oh, yes, it is
And with the recent ban on offshore drilling, I feel even better.

Long row to hoe, but it is SOOOO much better than if we had a rethug in there.

And I believe today will be a watershed moment in LGBT history.

7. K&R, I second that emotion!
Thank you to everyone who stayed and got the job done today. We thank you! :dem:

On a personal note, I have a sister who is an LGBT Army vet, and I'm glad that all like her who are serving can finally do so without fear.

14. Yes, it is.
This is how you get your base energized for 2012.

Even more important than that...this was a great day for the country, period.

21. It's always a good day to be a democrat
While we may have our ups and downs and disagreements, I'm with you on this one. Shameless liberal though I may be - severely critical of all elected officials though I may be, I'm with you.

I'm glad DADT was repealed - I'm glad our democrats are accomplishing some things. I'm still pissed off about a great variety of other things - but I'm a democrat, and it is always a good day to be one.
