why would they NOT sponsor this?

Really boggling....

Latest list of Republican pro-lynching Senators

The latest list is up on Thomas. We mistakenly didn't add Hutchison (R-TX) and Kyl (R-AZ) to the list of bad guys. They did NOT cosponsor. They're on the bad guy list now. And remember, they can still cosponsor retroactively, so why haven't they? Call now.

And don't forget to read how Bill Frist vetoed having a roll call vote on the lynching resolution, and how he refused to have the resolution come up during the day when the media would be aware of it.

STILL HAVEN'T COSPONSORED Lamar Alexander (R-TN) - (202) 224-4944 Robert Bennett (R-UT) - (202) 224-5444 Thad Cochran (R-MS) - (202) 224-5054 John Cornyn (R-TX) - (202) 224-2934 Michael Crapo (R-ID) - (202) 224-6142 Michael Enzi (R-WY) - (202) 224-3424 Chuck Grassley (R-IA) - (202) 224-3744 Judd Gregg (R-NH) - (202) 224-3324 Orrin Hatch (R-UT) - (202) 224-5251 Kay Hutchison (R-TX) - (202) 224-5922 Jon Kyl (R-AZ) - (202) 224-4521 Trent Lott (R-MS) - (202) 224-6253 Richard Shelby (R-AL) - (202) 224-5744 John Sununu (R-NH) - (202) 224-2841 Craig Thomas (R-WY) - (202) 224-6441

What do they think they have to gain by not putting their name to this? Baffling!

OMG

One hell of an editorial about Senate GOP lynching fiasco. Wow.

So, with the blood of 4,743 lynching victims crying out from the ground for some measure of justice - however delayed it might be - the U.S. Senate used the cover of night, and the more despicable cover of a voice vote, to take not a bold and courageous stand, but a lukewarm acceptance of responsibility for one of the most heinous chapters in American history.
