You can say that again! I look forward to helping a Republican take his job away in the next election.

It's almost comical. You never know which way he's going to blast, you just know that he is.

"McCains comments surprised me"

Probably because he's usually so oblivious to the obvious, right?

Can anyone here imagine the national crises if even one Republican had spoken out in such a despicably racist manner were the situation reversed. America's cities would be on fire as I type this!!!

She gave Rice the back of her hand, and this is what's left.

"The Senate voted 85 to 13," which indicates to many observers that 13 current senators need to be retired by ballot, or failing that, by term limits.

I"m surprised that Evan Bayh voted no........he is usually pretty non paritsan or at least compared to the others here

Is there a complete list of the racists?

Well said. The Democrats have been trying to keep black people on one plantation or another for over 200 years. And, if any escape, as in Dr. Rice's case, they try to lynch them.

If I were her, I would have excused myself from the proceedings and requested a weeks recess until the Democrats could fashion a proper scaffold and hangmans rope.
