Flag Burning Amendment Fails

Go here to see who the America-hating senators are and a few who are up for re-election and have to vote yes (assholes). Why not just try to get rid of the entire Bill of Rights and have done with it. After all, our soldiers fight for a flag not a Constitution.

While you're at it, will you please bring back the Alien and Sedition Act so we can prosecute those damn unpatriotic newspapers. Can't be having internal dissent while protecting our freedoms.

Read about how much the Senators really cared about the issue here. They couldn't even find members willing to come to the floor and talk about the issue.
