1. Shame On Them

how disgusting!

So even if Dems take over the house, will it matter with the same old dems rubber-stamping Bush's failed agenda.

[MisterP]

WTbloodyF?!?!

[jimshoes]

14. I'm shocked

at that one. Really Sherrod, what the F*** were you thinking?

[KamaAina]

25. And Jr., too!

A fine lot of Senate candidates we have, eh? "Vote Democratic. All the torture, with less inflammatory rhetoric." :puke:

[slaveplanet]

28. and LaTourette

voting against... bizarro world


The only explaination I can think of, is that maybe Brown knew the vote was doomed and he didn't want to give pinweasle any ammunition for this weekends MTP debate.

[liberalpragmatist]

29. Maybe he figured it was better than nothing?

That one IS surprising - he is one of the most progressive members of the US House.

I'm also surprised at Rep. Andrews. The rest aren't too surprising.

His latest campaign ad was filmed in a church, and included his proudly saying "I voted FOR the patriot act."
