Now it just has to go to Obama For Signature. SO I guess START WILL be voted on the Senate later on since it has passed the House I think. So would it affect if Start does not pass. Also what would happen if the DA FAILS On Saturday Morning.
Is it a very good thing that the Bush tax cuts finally passed in order to bring some Republicans to vote yes on the da or does it make no Difference

If DA fails Saturday, it dies this year.

Has DADT Passed in both Chambers. which one has it passed in yet the house or the senate since i do not remember. and which one has it yet to be voted on since does this affect the DA at all. Also why would it be dead. I mean wasnt one of the biggest things for republicans was to pass the Bush Tax cuts. I know some will still vote no because an ILLEGAL IS AN ILLEGAL To them or other reasons. I have heard that we have like between 55-57 but are those just assumptions or can this be verified. What are the chances of the DA passing this SATURDAY morning as well.

To answer your first question:
1.) DADT was passed in the House by 250-175. Now, it's up to the Senate to pass it, which Reid filed cloture to be voted on Saturday after DA, DA will be the first thing they talk about.

2.) I've heard the same numbers, too, 55-57. That's why it's so crucial that we keep calling senators that are on the fence about this still.

I hope this helped.

We need to put pressure on these senators one way or another. AND PRAY!!!!
