Insane. I had not seen this elsewhere before, no media coverage I am aware of...

[chance33_98]

By Mr. KENNEDY (for himself, Mr. LUGAR, Mr. CHAFEE, Mr. LEAHY, Mr. DODD, Mr. HAGEL, Mr. SMITH of Oregon, Mr. COCHRAN, Mr. BROWNBACK, Mr. JEFFORDS, Mr. DURBIN, and Mr. FEINGOLD)

Those above also signed onto the bill. Notice any republicans (Lugar for one, Indiana)....

Can't we all just get along ping

Quote from his speech:
The Koran says, ``O Mankind! We created you from a single pair of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other.'' These words speak eloquently of the need for this legislation. Building bridges of understanding and tolerance across cultures will help ensure that Americans and people of the Islamic world will truly understand and know each other. I urge my colleagues to support this legislation.

The Schwimmer will never submit a bill to enhance U.S-Christian Right Understanding. Count on it.

[goldstategop]

Oh sure Ted. The Muslims are so tolerant. Unless you happen to be living in Saudi Arabia or in Israel. Go there and find out what happens to you if you're a non-believing atheist or better yet, that bible thumpin' Christian you and liberals despise.

Those in power who FAIL to remember the past,
will condemn ALL OF US to repeat it.

Lugar:
Last year only 10 percent of participants in various State Department student and cultural exchange programs came from Islamic countries outside the former Soviet Union. Our new program will bring students aged 15 to 17 to attend high school and live with an American family for a year.

IE - We need more islamic people to come over here

[goldstategop]

Especially Mohammed Atta and Marwan Al Shehhi sleeper agents. Oh good work, Ted.

[goldstategop]

Yeah Ted should give the Saudis the Chappaquadick treatment.

[chance33_98]

Yeah Ted should give the Saudis the Chappaquadick treatment.

Looks like WE are the ones getting the Chappaquadick treatment!

[goldstategop]

The Schwimmer would rather have us to be ground to radioactive ash than he and fellow liberals give up their lovefest with Islam.

1) IN GENERAL.--In addition to funds otherwise available for such purpose, there is authorized to be appropriated for the Department of State $75,000,000 for each of the fiscal years 2003 through 2007 to carry out any new international educational or cultural exchange programs under section 6 or the expansion under section 6 of any existing such programs.

Lookey, we get to pay for it too....it's like a hooker paying you!

So when's he going to do something about U.S.-Ted understanding?

Rarrururuargh...

[chance33_98]

Maybe we should start calling him Osama-bin-Kennedy

[dokmad]

Jeeesh. When is Kennedy's liver going to fail? We can only hope.

[wingnuts'nbolts]

The ever clever politician Teddy Kennedy the morally challenged, has a lot of Muslims in his district and the dems in general are courting the muslim vote. They are a big voting block unfortunately. Pandering like this that costs the taxpayers millions still infuriates me.
