The 'Taliban 13' U.S. Senators
We're reported how Sen. Patty "Osama Mama" Murray, D-Wash., wanted American taxpayers to dole out $30 million to the rabidly America-hating, woman-oppressing Taliban regime in Afghanistan. We promised to name the other 12 U.S. senators who agreed with her.
Not suprisingly, all 13 who urged Secretary of State Colin Powell to abet the regime are Democrats. Most are on the far-left fringe of the party.
In contrast with Murray's claims, "The United States is already the biggest aid donor to Afghanistan, despite its animosity toward the ruling Taliban Islamic militia, which it blames for backing terrorism, drug trafficking and gross human rights abuses," Agence France-Presse reported May 2, 2001 in revealing the senators' demands.
The Taliban Thirteen: Sens. Murray, Hillary Clinton of New York, Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer of California, Teddy Kennedy of Massachusetts, Patrick "Leaky" Leahy of Vermont, Barbara Mikulski of Maryland, Harry Reid of Nevada, Joseph Biden of Delaware, Russell Feingold of Wisconsin, Debbie Stabenow of Michigan, Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, and the late Paul Wellstone of Minnesota.

As I read the names the words "aid and comfort" came to mind......
Yes, there are exceptions, but not many.
