The 14 Democrats who voted for the shameful flag-burning amendment, very narrowly defeated in the Senate:
Baucus (D-MT)
Bayh (D-IN)
Dayton (D-MN)
Feinstein (D-CA)
Johnson (D-SD)
Landrieu (D-LA)
Lincoln (D-AR)
Menendez (D-NJ)
Nelson (D-FL)
Nelson (D-NE)
Reid (D-NV)*
Rockefeller (D-WV)
Salazar (D-CO)
Stabenow (D-MI)
*our fearless leader
Hillary Clinton’s compromise measure—a criminal statute against flag-burning rather than a constitutional amendment—is transparently opportunistic, and it accepts Orrin Hatch’s terms of debate. It’s politics as pure cynicism. (See: title of this post)
