more great moments in legislature

[Jim Devine <jdevine03@xxxxxxxxx>]

from SLATE: >"He's apologizing to others, certainly he should
apologize to us as well." That's B. Frank Earnest Sr., the Virginia
commander of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, on George Allen. The
Post reports that the group is outraged the senator would turn his
back on the flag of the Confederacy. Allen, who recently stopped
campaigning for re-election so that he can devote his full attention
to offering apologies for his offensive behavior, denounced the
Southern Cross last month. He said he regretted his earlier embrace of
a flag that "is, for black Americans, an emblem of hate and terror."
No word yet on when Allen plans to apologize for his apology.<

Jim Devine / "it is all the more clear what we have to accomplish at
present: I am referring to ruthless criticism of all that exists,
ruthless both in the sense of not being afraid of the results it
arrives at and in the sense of being just as little afraid of conflict
with the powers that be." -- KM
