A small town in France has named a road in honor of convicted cop killer Mumia Abu Jamal. Thursday the U.S. Congress overwhelmingly passed a resolution condemning the decision to name a French road for a convicted murderer of a Philadelphia policeman. The measure passed 368-31. The usual anti-American and race baiting suspects voted against the non-binding resolution. But among those voting in the Cop Killer Caucus was Tennessee Democrat Congressman Jim Cooper.

Here are a few more details about the story and its history. CLICK HERE.

Congressman Cooper's staff claims he voted against the resolution as a protest because Congress has other things to do. Really? So will Congressman Cooper consistently vote against all such resolutions in the future, or at least so long as their are "serious issues" that Congress should deal with? Has he ever voted for these sort of resolutions in the past, and if so, why did the "serious issues" we are facing not bother him then? Has he ever PROPOSED one of these silly resolutions himself? Perhaps Congressman Cooper wants to be part of the Cop Killer Caucus AND the President of the Hypocrisy Caucus.

Congressman Cooper has voted in recent months to congratulate the St. Louis Cardinals on winning the World Series; to recognize Spelman College for its 125th anniversary; and to pay tribute to  Robert Tisch for his contributions to the NY Giants football organization. He has voted on a LOT of inane resolutions, and even sponsored a bunch of them himself over the years. But he choose to vote NO on the resolution regarding cop killer Mumia Abu Jamal. Interesting set of priorities, huh? Here are more of Congressman Cooper's votes. CLICK HERE.

It has been 25 years since police officer Danny Faulkner was murdered. CLICK HERE.

An Arizona restaurant, the Heart Attack Grill, features food guaranteed to clog your arteries and waitresses dressed as "naughty nurses."  Some "real" nurses have complained that the outfits "offend" them. Shouldn't these health care professionals be more offended by some of the food offerings, like the triple bypass burger? CLICK HERE.

"THE OUTFIT" versus "THE BURGER".

The British Home Secretary, sort of their version of the head of Homeland Security, says there are at least 30 major terror plots that they are tracking and the terrorists only have to "get lucky once." CLICK HERE.
