Only A Matter of Time

The “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” repeal now has 61 Senate pledges. Filibuster-proof, unbelievably enough.

We have always known it was only a matter of time until the reality of the repeal -- either via legislation, or through the courts.  But now it really is only a matter of time – or perhaps not enough of it. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid must push this legislation through the lame-duck session or it’s dead. Hard to believe it would be revived in the future Republican-led House, and difficult to imagine a filibuster-proof Senate majority in 2011.

There's no time like the present. Or don't put off for tomorrow, what you can do today. Or time is of the essence.

Or something like that.
