GOP says dead World Trade Center victims would want flag burning amendment

I so kid you not.

"Ask the men and women who stood on top of the (World) Trade Center," said Rep. Randy (Duke) Cunningham, R-Calif. "Ask them and they will tell you: pass this amendment."

I think they had other things on their mind at the time. Unless he means the fire crews and survivors who stood on the ruins of the Trade Center. But again, I really have a hard time believing they looked at the smoldering ruins, the 3,000 dead lying round, and said to themselves "if only we had a flag burning amendment."
