Kay Bailey pro lynching?

In case you missed it during the media sh*tstorm over Michael Jackson, the Senate on Monday formally apologized for having rejected decades of pleas to make lynching a federal crime.

Atrios has the scoop on some of the folks who did not sign on to the bill opposing the lynching of African Americans. CLICK HERE

Guess what?

One of them is the Amarillo Globe-Republican's fav possible candidate for Governor HERE and HERE and HERE (Who needs to know about her policy positions? She's Republicanerriffic! Love, Amarillo Globe News)

Before the AG-R falls too madly in love with still unannounced candidate for Guv Kay Bailey Hutchinson, anyone want to ask Sen. "She ain't no rocket scientist" Hutchinson what exactly was objectionable to her about OPPOSING lynching?! (remember James Byrd Senator?)

It's called journalism people.
