Surely our "conservative" President will veto this nonsense (sarcasm).

If a person thinks they've been harmed by another person calling them a name they can take the person/defendant to court and do their best to prove to an impartial jury that they had been harmed by the defendant's name calling. The plaintiff would be lucky to convince a third of the jurors that they had been had been harmed by the defendant -- let alone convince all twelve jurors, which they'd need to obtain a guilty verdict.

Congress has created so many laws that virtually every person is assured of breaking more than just traffic laws. Surely, with all this supposed lawlessness people and society should have long ago run head long into destruction. But it has not.

Instead, people and society have progressively prospered. Doing so despite the federal government -- politicians and bureaucrats -- creating on average, 3,000 new laws and regulations each year which self-serving alphabet-agency bureaucrats implement/utilize to "justify" their usurped power and unearned paychecks. They both proclaim from on high -- with complicit endorsement from the media and academia -- that all those laws are necessary, "must-have" laws to thwart people and society from running headlong into self-destruction.

How is it that people and society have managed to increasingly prosper last year, the year before and decades prior without having each year's 3,000 new laws? But suddenly each year the people need 3,000 new laws. Why will people and society not run headlong into self-destruction this year despite not having next year's 3,000 new laws, or the 3,000 new laws in 2004?

Would you care to enlighten us as to when this "SET TO VOTE" is to take place? Got any ideas?

When I checked the vote on cloture, it seems that Republicans could filibuster this one to death and this bill will never see the light of day with passing. So what is the urgency?

But then I would assume you would know that before posting this! So why did you post this and why is there not a link to this article?

Looking on the senate web site I find tow versions of this bill. s.625.rs, s.625.is.

Maybe I'm not reading them right, but could somebody explain exactly how these bills relate to the statements in the article? I'm not in favor of this bill, either version, but don't find it to be the great threat presented here (I may be wrong, which is why I asked for an explaination).

Besides, with conservative republican hero Bush in office, it will be vetoed if passed. The same way clinton would have vetoed any conservative bill that weakened hate crime legislation.

The real sin ------

Where the hell are the judges who should be slamming this "hate crime" crap as unconstitutional via the 1st. Amendment? There lies the REAL battle.

Revelation 17


The Scarlet Woman and the Scarlet Beast


1 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and talked with me, saying to me, "Come, I will show you the judgment of the great harlot who sits on many waters, 2with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth were made drunk with the wine of her fornication."
3So he carried me away in the Spirit into the wilderness. And I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast which was full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. 4The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornication. 5And on her forehead a name was written:
        MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
6I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And when I saw her, I marveled with great amazement.
