James Byrds family would not have benefited from a so called ""hate crimes"" bill. And probably did not get the proper chance to grieve since the DNC/NAACP was in their faces before poor Mr Byrd was in the ground. Do you actually believe another law on the books would have saved Mr. Byrd? Do you actually believe that another law on the books would have gotten the convicts more than a death sentence? Should the family be allowed to go in and rip a little flesh off those losers before they go to the death chamber? What? What is the bottom line here? Reparation? From whom? Because those losers were white, should Joe Blow in Montana pay the Byrd family? Is that the bottom line?

<Fact is ALL POLITICANS LIE! Get over it.> Unfortunately, it seems that many do. It doesn't make it any better, but would you concede that Gore has lied as much, if not more? Enough with bashing Bush as a liar, when, as you say they all do it. Why not bash Gore too? <Bush happened to make that a platform issue, which not only makes him a lier[sic], but a stupid hypocrite as well.> I'm not sure which issue you were talking about here. Could you be specific?
