Lady Gaga Promises To Keep Enlisting Monster Army In DADT Fight

There was a debate… we just didn’t get to watch it. Instead, it has been customary now for antiquated procedures and partisan politics to take precedence over debate, America’s needs, and today, sadly, over the needs of U.S. troops. I will keep fighting, I will not give up. I am passionate about the rights of the LGBT Community… and I will continue to activate as many young people as I can, and encourage them to get politically involved in their future.

Technically, they voted not to have a debate

@Steve: A cloture vote is a vote to END “debate” and schedule the actual vote, so they technically voted to “keep debating.” Though there is rarely any actual “debate” connected to cloture votes.
