Naming names

Reported by Chrish - June 23, 2004 -

When the Senate voted today, June 22, to uphold the ban on photos of troops' coffins,

7 Democrats voted with the Republicans to continue the ban, while 2 Republicans voted with the Democrats to lift the ban. Fox was good enough to identify the two dissenting R's (Olympia Snowe, ME, and John McCain, AZ) (3:53pm edt) so their viewers would know exactly who to seeth at for crossing over to the dark side. No cooperating Democrats were named, sparing viewers from begrudging them a tiny bit of goodwill.
