Let's see...Slightly Conservative, Liberal, Very Conservative...all in agreement on something. Is this a sign of the impending end of the world?
None of the Senate members (with the probably exception of Congressman Byrd) were even sparkles in their Father's eyes when Africans were slaves in America.
No apology is necessary, as it is not genuine.
Byrdi s a Senator if you are referring to Sen Robert Byrd WV
What makes this "not genuine" is it bcasue it didn't come with reparations?
Orbecasue it was non binding?

Does anyone think that the Senate should not have appologized ? If so why.
Because it's a pointless, empty gesture, intended only to make the Senators who voted for it feel good about themselves.
Much like the empty gesture The U.S. House of Representatives did when they overwhelmingly approved a resolution Friday that says it supports "all Iranians who embrace the values of freedom, human rights, civil liberties and the rule of law."
Well, except for the minor detail that the situation with the Iranians is happening now, and slavery ended a brazillion years ago.
Well, the way they are running things I guess they have to take what they can get, personally, I think they should apologize to every American they represent and pass a resolution to legislate with bags over their heads.Because it's a pointless, empty gesture, intended only to make the Senators who voted for it feel good about themselves.
It's still empty. It doesn't DO anything. It's a waste of time.
You might as well have a resolution stating that the sun rises from the east.

My main problem with this is that how will this country ever get over race issues when we are constantly apologizing and bringing to front and center the bad times between the races. I am not saying to forget, but let's end the dwelling on a dead past!
