Recently 93 Senators voted for a defense authorization bill that included repeal of Article 125 of the <\/span><\/span><\/span>Uniform Code of Military Justice<\/a>(UCMJ) which bans soldiers from engaging in either sodomy or bestiality. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When asked whether he knew about the measure, a baffled Senator McCain spluttered to a <\/span><\/span><\/span>CNSNews<\/a>reporter: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t, I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know what you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re \u00e2\u20ac\u201d honestly. I read the bill. And I was there for many hours of deliberation and debate and amendments, and probably spent hundreds of, several hundred hours on it. But that particular provision I did not know.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I’ll admit that even after 100 hours I might miss a non doted “i” or uncrossed “t” but not a section titled “Repeal of the military ban on sodomy and bestiality”.
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Senator Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who also voted for the bill, was more cagey in his response. Asked if he had been aware of the provision, Graham, a former military prosecutor and member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, told the <\/span><\/span><\/span>CNSNews<\/a>reporter, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153No, I can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t say I was. But \u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 I think I know what the military is getting at there, in light of the change in policy. But no, I can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t say that I was, so we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll look at that.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

More recently the House and Senate passed a trillion dollar plus omnibus authorization bill.\u00c2\u00a0 One sane Representative who voted against it more or less said “how can I rationally vote on a trillion dollar bill that has just be presented”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
