In the Shadow of 9/11

Here's how the Republicans commemorate the September 11 attacks: by abandoning the heroes of that dreadful day. No funding for sick 9/11 responders

Senate Republicans killed a bid for nearly $2 billion to help sick 9/11 responders yesterday - blocking the measure without letting it come up for a vote. Senate leaders invoked parliamentary rules, saying Sen. Hillary Clinton's (D-N.Y.) amendment to a measure funding port security was not "germane."

Comments:
The Republican travelogue: veni, vidi, spoli.
 
yet it's "germane" if Bill Frist attaches a gambling provision onto a military bill.
 
Compassionate conservatism, feh.

What is it about these people and these monstrous policies that attracts the small donations and votes of our fellow Americans?
