GOP Senators vote "yes" to amnesty for terrorists

Via AMERICAblog, these are the United States senators who voted "no" on the following amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007:

    To express the sense of Congress that the Government of Iraq should not grant amnesty to persons known to have attacked, killed, or wounded members of the Armed Forces of the United States.
Just to be clear, the resolution OPPOSES amnesty for terrorists in Iraq known to have "attacked, killed, or wounded members of the Armed Forces of the United States." A "yes" vote means you OPPOSE amnesty for the terrorists in question. A "no" vote means you DO NOT OPPOSE amnesty for the terrorists in question.

Here are the names of the 19 U.S. senators voting "no."

    Allard (R-CO)
    Bond (R-MO)
    Bunning (R-KY)
    Burns (R-MT)
    Coburn (R-OK)
    Cochran (R-MS)
    Cornyn (R-TX)
    DeMint (R-SC)
    Enzi (R-WY)
    Graham (R-SC)
    Hagel (R-NE)
    Inhofe (R-OK)
    Kyl (R-AZ)
    Lott (R-MS)
    McCain (R-AZ)
    Sessions (R-AL)
    Stevens (R-AK)
    Thomas (R-WY)
    Warner (R-VA)
Nineteen Republican United States senators essentially expressed their support for the Iraqi government granting amnesty to the killers of American military personnel. That means the barbarians who tortured and killed Private Thomas Lowell Tucker and Private Kristian Menchaca would receive amnesty for their crimes with the blessings of 19 GOP United States senators.

Tell me the one again about who really supports the troops.
