The Senate's two Republicans argued that a minority of Islamic extremists have killed many innocents in terrorist attacks. "I recall radical Islamists around the world cheering the horrors of 9/11. That is the day all civilized people of all religions should remember," said Republican Sen. Fred Hemmings to the applause of more than 100 people gathered in the Senate to oppose a separate issue — same-sex civil unions. The resolution to proclaim Sept. 24, 2009, as Islam Day passed the Senate on a 22-3 vote. It had previously passed the House." http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5jVdzTzS1jB4Ub5CxvFnH0Jnma9aAD9813Q8G0 ; Fri, 08 May 2009 23:55:19 GMT http://corporatemediawatch.tribe.net/thread/c32a7d27-f385-4e39-9fcb-6548159120b6#727981cd-e319-4543-8fb9-0c340540211f Rocky 2009-05-08T23:55:19Z
