The bill has been hanging around since April. The issue isn't dead by a long shot. I'm not concerned over what is being spun as bad news here.

What do we need to be doing to keep the pressure on the House to pass this? This SHOULD be a no brainer.

President Clinton, while addressing the attendees at Rosa Parks' funeral yesterday, told of a time when he was 9 years old and learned of Rosa Parks' infamous denial to sit on the back of the bus.

He stated that he was so moved by that, that he went and sat in the back of his school bus with the black children. (This was apparently supposed to be a show of alliance on his part).

But what is also apparent - is that it's not true!

In an article on Sep. 24, 1997 in the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette (linked), it was noted that when he was 11 years old at the time of the famous integration of Little Rock's Central High School, President Clinton had attended SEGREGATED schools.

How could a child who attended segregated schools have ever been on a SCHOOL bus with black children?
