I think his resignation is more in line.
depserv:
Maybe something good can come out of this: drug tests for the legislature. Or at least one member. This is giving Chambers the benefit of the doubt of course, in assuming that he's not stupid enough to say those kinds of things without being under the influence of some mind altering substance. And if he isn't it's probably worse, because if he is he can sober up and maybe do a little better, but if he isn't he's fundamentally loony and we just have to live with it, since it doesn't seem likely that those who vote for him will ever wise up. Either way it's a sad state of affairs for those who have to live under the law he's able to corrupt.
I remember when another racist named David Duke ran for the Senate in Louisiana and there was a national threat of economic boycott against the people of his state if they elected him. And it seems to have worked, though he might not have been elected anyway. So if it isn't ok to vote for David Duke, why is it ok to vote for Ernie Chambers?

Because in this day and age it is not wrong to discriminate against whites if you are black, but a major travesty the other way.
AAllen:
OK folks here's my thoughts... I'm amazed people are even saying anything about this. Ernie has said much worse things about and directly too people. He's called me a stupid redneck when testifying on behalf of our organization. He's called Nebraskans in general rednecks, rubes, idiots and much worse, even calling those who elected him idiots (something I have difficulty disagreeing with since they keep electing him), he disparages religion, religious leaders, has said similar things about cops and or police for years, called public school educators everything from Nazi's to racists and worse.
Nothing is going to happen to him because he will not step down and you are not going to get 35 senators to vote to remove him. Instead lets use his stupidity against him and push our bills out of committee over his objections, then into law in spite of him.

Completely agree with this. Put our energy into something that will actually make a difference!
