So Few Patriots in the Senate

89 - 10.

Ninety-nine votes cast.

Ninety-nine senators voting on whether to let BushCo. continue to find new ways to violate our civil rights and the rights of foreigners who may or may not have done anything wrong.

And only ten of them could find the fortitude to stand up for those rights.

And the news outlets report it as though it were nothing different than the day before. When more people can identify the members of the Simpson family than know the five guarantees of the first amendment - I suppose it's no wonder.

Ninety-nine votes cast.

89 - 10.
