why is the Senate passing a resolution expressing sympathy??? |
|
Is there some legal benefits to passing this? I am sure that they all feel some sympathy, but why is there a need to vote on it?? Arnt they wasting time?? What am I missing? :shrug:

1. Nothing, unfortunately. |
|
Frist does not seem in a hurry to pass any benefit.

5. its like they have to get on the record that they showed sympathy |
|
"We are sorry it happened, but lets delay doing anything about it"
Thats the message I'm getting.

6. It's the Senate's way of expressing itself. They do it all the time |
|
Nothing new.
Their own moment of silence as it were. Some here I've seen asking why the flags weren't at half mast or why there wasn't a day or mourning. In terms of help for the victims, those are just as "useless" and "time-wasting".
Nevertheless, we do appreciate them.
