Congress apologizes for allowing lynching... well 8 out of 10 senators do.

Here are the 20 Senators who
1) refused to co-sponsor the anti-lynching resolution passed yesterday, and
2) refused a roll-call vote so they'd have to put their name on the resolution.

Lamar Alexander (R-TN)
Robert Bennett (R-UT)
Christopher Bond (R-MO)
Jim Bunning (R-KY)
Conrad Burns (R-MT)
Saxby Chambliss (R-GA)
Thad Cochran (R-MS)
Kent Conrad (D-ND)
John Cornyn (R-TX)
Michael Crapo (R-ID)
Michael Enzi (R-WY)
Chuck Grassley (R-IA)
Judd Gregg (R-NH)
Orrin Hatch (R-UT)
Trent Lott (R-MS)
Lisa Murkowski (R-AK)
Richard Shelby (R-AL)
John Sununu (R-NH)
Craig Thomas (R-WY)
George Voinovich (R-OH)
19 Republicans and 1 Democrat, a real wall of shame.

BOTH OF OUR SENATORS! The ONLY state with both senators not co-sponsoring. Does anyone else want to hear more BS from the state democrat party about how this state is turning blue. Two hardcore right wing extremist senators representing us. A little piece of UTAH right here in New England.

I just heard that Kent Conrad added his name today to the anti-lynching resolution passed yesterday, making the holdouts an all-GOP cast.

Comments:
Don't forget, we were the last state to adopt Martin Luther King Day as a holiday.

The GOP usually does a better job of hiding their racist agenda.
 
It's embarassing that Gregg and Sununu represent us, but even more embarassing that the Dems don't have any contenders to run for their seats.

I don't think they'll send you to Gitmo - they'll probably lock you up with Jose Padilla - US citizen who has been held without being charged for over 3 years now, without access to his attorney. That's how they treat US citizens.
