I can imagine Adams behavior were he here today to see the loony tunes we have running this country.

What I indeed find amazing is the difference between George Allen & Jim Webb and they both come from the same great state.

Allen, who once harbored presidential ambitions, has gone from toast of the town to “just plain toast.” (maraca) A racist affront.

Allen's past -- which includes a youthful admiration of the Confederate flag and an office that once displayed a noose -- lurched back into the public spotlight during the Republican's senatorial battle against Webb, a Navy secretary during the Reagan administration.

Webb endorsed a House-passed bill to grant federal recognition to six Indian tribes in Virginia, a status that would qualify the tribes for certain benefits provided through the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) and other federal agencies.
