alabama apologizes for slavery

talk about overdue...at this rate they'll apologize for selma sometime in the 23rd century.

"This proves Alabama is open for everyone and we are ready to improve race relations," said state Rep. Mary Moore, a Birmingham Democrat who sponsored the resolution. "The issue of slavery and its impact on the country had been kept in the closet until a few Southern states said, 'We want to take it out of the closet."

in the closet? oh, that's an unfortunately poor analogy...and you're only now ready to improve race relations? and this is a democrat saying this? oy. at this rate, they'll apologize for selma sometime around 2341.
