When George Allen gets in front of the cameras today to tout the Senate’s expected passage of a resolution apologizing for its failure to enact an anti-lynching law, it will be interesting to see if any reporter asks Allen if he will also apologize for the bevy of racially insensitive positions and actions he has taken throughout his career, including displaying a hangman’s noose in his office.

1) Allen kept a hangman's noose in his law office and displayed a Confederate flag at his home. When asked, he said that the two racially provocative symbols were nothing more than harmless decorations.

Why are they doing this now? Trying to suck up to minorities? Geez, they never fail to astound me with their idiotic posturing....

Thanks for posting this and keeping up with the senate...:)
