Flag Burning: "Ask the WTC victims!"

Their exploitation of the victims of 9/11 knows no boundaries. I hope they get exactly what they deserve for using those poor people's deaths for political gain. (we need a smiley for shaking one's head in disgust and shame):

Ask the men and women who stood on top of the Trade Center," said Rep. Randy (Duke) Cunningham, R-Calif. "Ask them and they will tell you: 'Pass this amendment.'"

Rep. Jerrold Nadler (news, bio, voting record), D-N.Y., whose district includes the site of the former World Trade Center, accused Republicans of exploiting the attacks.

"If the flag needs protection at all," he said, "it needs protection from members of Congress who value the symbol more than the freedoms that the flag represents."

I was always under the impression that the WTC was destroyed by passenger jets piloted by religious fanatics wielding boxcutters.

How would you ask them anyway? :freak:

...and I bet they'd say, "hey, Randy, you were way the hell out in California. What do you know about 9/11?"

Shameless. Utterly shameless.

"If the flag needs protection at all," he said, "it needs protection from members of Congress who value the symbol more than the freedoms that the flag represents."

Nothing. That's what. If these bastards want to take away our freedoms, to castrate the our mist fundamental rights, they should do it without gleefully dancing on the bodies of the 911 dead.

actually catch Osama (who after all was actually involved in their suffering and ultimate death), or would rather divert billions of dollars to attacking a nation who never threatened us in any way, and they'll say "get Osama."

While you're at it, ask them if they approve of you selling a house for $700,000 more than it was worth and having the purchaser then sell it for it's real value, resulting in what amounts to a direct payment to you for $700,000.

Just another fucking scheister Republican trying to destroy the Constitution.

"...and why is Congress wasting time and resources on this amendment yet again?"
