A proposed amendment to outlaw flag burning was voted down in the Senate

Tuesday, the Senate voted down a joint resolution proposing a Constitutional Amendment prohibiting flag burning and other “desecration.”This appalling waste of time and money was, of course, a sheerly political [...]

Angels & Assholes: Making English the National Language

May 19th, 2006 · No Comments

After many requests (okay, two) from all over the country (my mom in Wisconsin and my sister in California), I am reviving the Angels & Assholes scorecard. Let’s start with yesterday’s vote to make English the national language. (S.2611, S.Amdt. 4064)
34 Angels voted NAY
63 Assholes voted YEA
3 Weasels failed to vote
How did [...]
