Senator Sam Brownback, a Republican trying to inject new life into his beleaguered presidential campaign, plans to offer a resolution this week for Congress to apologize for slavery and segregation.
Brownback, of Kansas, told The Boston Globe's editorial board yesterday he will join an unnamed Democrat in sponsoring the proposal. He said he expects a tough fight on the resolution, even though it will not include any call for reparations.
"They were federal policies," he said. "They were wrong. The only way for us to move forward . . . is at the end of day acknowledging those, taking ownership for it, and asking for forgiveness."

“Brownback to pitch proposal apologizing for slavery”
First Tommy Thompson, Second will be Brownback.
Any takers on who is going to be third out?
Hillary probably showed him his FBI file, and played a few taped phone conversations for him as well.
It’s painful to watch. When I was in high school our social studies teacher was always running stupid films on the projector. Like “A Visit to Sarah Lee”, or other nonsense. The best part was when we would play it backwards, and watch the “happy consumer” take the bite of pie out of his mouth, and put it back in the pie. This is what is happening to the Republican Party. We are watching the sausage being unmade, from end to beginning. It’s not pretty.
Looser
That's the new plan, initiated by Bush in 2002.
Sam Brownback :
Voted YES on killing a bill for trade sanctions if China sells weapons.
Voted YES on granting normal trade relations status to Vietnam.
Voted YES on permanent normal trade relations with China.
I'm betting Huckabee.
“I’m betting Huckabee.”
I was thinking Tancredo.
Brownbag is obviously in the cups again.
And Brownback is out of the race.
But even though he is nuts he has the drive energy and ambition to get into the US Senate and rule over your sorry a$$ and mine too.
As a Kansan, I apologize for having helped vote him into the Senate. Never again, though.
This is what wanting to be President does to a weak man.
It makes him a pandering fool.
This kind of thinking disqualifies Brownback for the Senate, even.
Brownbacks three religious affiliations are at wiki-pedia. The guy is confused same as I have had to reluctantly conclude about George Bush——>>>>
Religious views
Brownback told Rolling Stone that he had moved from mainline Protestantism to evangelicalism before his 2002 conversion to Catholicism, and that in 1994 he became involved with The Fellowship, a conservative Christian U.S. political organization.
When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.
I nominate Brownback for this year's Insufferable Political Idiot award.
*&*%!
Who was the alternative? Elections are almost always a choice between two evils.
The late great Sam Francis once said "we have two political parties, the stupid party and the evil party. And what we fear most is bipartisanship."
Kansas is as middle America as you can get, why do Kansans vote for this idiot. Same reason I voted Mel Martinez here in FL. He was better than the moonbat democrat
