and you thought shutting up the minority only happened in zimbabwe!
mr. sensenbrenner is a model citizen and a true american hero. just a month or so ago he ordered committee staff to rewrie the official description of a democratic amendment to the bogus "child interstate abortion notification act" out of committee to read:
Mr. Nadler offered an amendment that would have created an additional layer of Federal court review that could be used by sexual predators to escape conviction under the bill.
the amendment, which would have exempted older siblings and grandparents from prosecution should they escort a child raped by her parents across state lines for an abortion, was originally reported as:
The Nadler amendment allows an adult who could be prosecuted under the bill to go to a Federal district court and seek a waiver to the state's parental notice laws if this remedy is not available in the state court.
shucks! being in charge sure is fun!
