The Anti-Sam Brownback Blog

Never let it be said that I always disagree with Senator Sam Brownback. 98% of the time I think he is ignorant at best and maniacal at worst, but we agree on refusing military funerals for convicted killers. From the AP:

The Senate passed a bill Wednesday to keep BTK serial killer Dennis Rader and other veterans convicted of murder from being buried in national cemeteries or given military funeral honors.

The bill’s backers, including Sens. Pat Roberts and Sam Brownback, both R-Kansas, and Sen. Larry Craig, R-Idaho, said the measure would close a loophole under current law and require the Defense Department and Veterans Affairs Administration to be more proactive in checking the backgrounds of those slated for military burials.

I view this as a straightforward victim’s rights issue.

So there you have it. Will I agree Brownback again before 2008? Not likely. The guy is crazy as a loon.
