And these people are running DC. Sigh.

I read this morning in the paper that a poll found that 79% of Democrats support allowing gays and lesbians to serve openly in the military, but only 43% of Democrats support allowing homosexuals to serve openly in the military.

Looks like some on the left are desperately in need of a dictionary, or perhaps a basic reading class. In similar news, North Dakota Senator Kent Conrad is trying to argue that allowing tax cuts to expire does not amount to a tax hike.

With thinking like this running the country, our nation's current state should not surprise us.
