5. No, Franks voted Present. He has a conflict of interest |
|
He's been reprimanded in the past in a similar way and doesn't believe in the practice.

6. Clyburn was very eloquent |
|
and dignified, and said that it was a matter of respect and decorum. Then a bunch of Repubs spoke: Boner, Cantor, a few forgettable and predictable others, tried to take the debate away from his behavior, to their health care talking points, and what a good ol' boy Wilson is. The GOP told them all to mention his 4 sons who served in the military, which they all obeyed. Then they voted and it passed.

Pelosi isn't a Quintessential example of a strong woman I never thought that until she became head of the house,she wants to let them slide on everything.And Guaranteed Ted Kennedy would of lead a lot more of a charge against this Racist ,than Most of the Dem's did today.

11. When you figure that 80 million Americans either can't read or comprehend |
|
what they're reading, then how can they understand the implications of racism?
