You know the world is upside down when Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada and Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California vote with Utah's Orrin Hatch to support a constitutional flag amendment, but our own Sen. Robert Bennett votes against it.

It failed by one vote — Sen. Bennett's vote.

Thank you, Sen. Bennett, for the slap in the face.
