Change you can believe in

When you google the bills in the Senate Obama has had his name on, there are around 145 of them. Only 2 have been bills he proposed that actually became law. One to promote democracy in the Republic of the Congo and the other to name a post office in Illinois the "Katherine Dunham post office". There were actually over 25 that were ruled by the chair as being out of order. Most of the rest were either "sense of the Senate votes or sent to committee for hearings.

So the very few examples of bills that became law which were referred to by Palen and McCain were these two. They had too much class to say what they were so that they wouldn't be labled as sounding racist. It is what it is.

See the following link and see items # 21 and #61. I kid you not:
