The Twelve Who Said No to Our Nuclear Deal with India

The US Senate has signed on to President Bush's extremely troubling nuclear deal with India by a vote of 85-12. It's sets an extremely problematic precedent if we hope to get the proliferation of nuclear weapons under control. The 12 senators who refused to support this deal (all Democrats) were Dan Akaka, Barbara Boxer, Robert C. Byrd, Jeff Bingaman, Kent Conrad, Byron Dorgan, Mark Dayton, Russ Feingold, Tom Harkin, Tim Johnson, Ted Kennedy and Patrick Leahy.
