My Rep, Cravaack, voted AGAINST! And he's READING UP on Sharia.l Yeah, baby, yeah!

simon templar| 7.29.11 @ 6:58PM

Could we see the DEM list when the Senate rejects it? Why are we posting this list? Wow. So what. We have people in our party that hold differentt views on things? Wow. Oh, my! Jimminy crickets!

Wayne | 7.29.11 @ 7:20PM

I respect them for voting on principal and not caving to the establishment. They have to answer to their constituents. Now I have to see who we need to run against Walden.

1blumutt| 7.29.11 @ 10:00PM

Wayne, You want to undermine Walden, an individual who displays integrity under political pressure from the "gotta pass it now political cronies," Wayne who is putting Country above politics? Well, then, if you want to remove such a brave and upstanding individual, then we deserve the corrupt leadership that we whine about now don't we!

Wayne | 7.30.11 @ 1:25PM

He has spent too much time in DC it seems. We can do better.

Dr.Ron Paul Says Boehner's Plan Is Not Real & Posturing. Votes A Big "NO".

Kyle Smith| 7.29.11 @ 7:46PM

National Review posted a list of 24 No votes yesterday. Of those on that list, 7 flipped to Yes. So, it looks like there were closer to 30 hold outs. House leaders tried to make it look like there was less.

C Bowen| 7.29.11 @ 7:49PM

A toast to them all.

...be he ne'er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition

Cris Worth| 7.29.11 @ 8:29PM

Some of these GOP no votes were phony. They waited to the last second to see if 218 yes votes were obtained then voted no. The whip was right along side of them. The Republicans have been doing these backstabbing events since 1967. This is an all time low for them.

Have you considered| 7.30.11 @ 6:14AM

Cris, I think you are right. These are the guys who were allowed to be a "no" vote.

It's the same thing the Democrats do.

As it evolves, it becomes clearer that there is not a dimes worth of difference between the establishment parties.

I honestly believe it is time for a 3rd party.

PCP Smoker| 7.29.11 @ 10:12PM

My boy is there. I told him he has my support and my donation! Put a fork in Bonehead. He is done. Weak RINO creep.

Reaganaut| 7.29.11 @ 10:55PM

Wow, the know nothings vote en bloc to appease their base.
Real courage.

McClintock was again and again the taxpayer's foremost champion during his days in the California legislature. Glad to see him doing likewise in Congress.

John Roberts| 7.29.11 @ 11:36PM

Fighters for the Republic! Voting against maybe cutting some INCREASES in future spending is easy for these logical members.

WL| 7.30.11 @ 12:56AM

I have always been a traditional conservative...but I have noticed one thing...and I have never been a Ron Paul fan by the way.....

I am becoming a Randian more and more EVERY DAY.

And these noted so-called conservative Republicans back-stabbed the Republican Party, have cause a Reid, Pilosi, Clyburn Democrat victory on this issue; and furthermore have re-elected Obama to another four years. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How many tea party patriots does it take to change a lightbulb? Ten million and five: One to go to Wal-Mart and buy a lightbulb (and a gun because he’s going to the store anyway), one to scoff at global climate change, one to draw a rally poster making fun of Al Gore, one to complain about the socialist conspiracy to bring light to all Americans, one to change the bulb, and 10 million to sit in the dark even though the light is on.

“Knock, knock.” “Who’s there?” “A communist-fascist dictator.” “That’s impossible — communism and fascism are at opposite ends of the philosophical spectrum.” “You’re supposed to say ‘a communist-fascist dictator who.’” “Fine. A communist-fascist dictator who?” “Oh, never mind. You’ve ruined the joke. I’ll go next door to the tea party patriot’s house.”

What do Fox News and pâté have in common? They’re both popular with crackers.

Did you hear about the new e-Beck from Amazon? When you click “download” it whines about socialism for an hour and then breaks into tears.

What’s the difference between Cinemax After Dark and a tea bag convention? One’s a show about people who are agitated over stimulus packages and the other is a group of people with their mouths full of balls.

Why did the tea party patriot miss the anti-tax meeting? She was too busy driving on taxpayer-funded roads, sending her kids to public school, living in a safe neighborhood, drinking clean water, breathing clean air, enjoying public parks, using public lands, buying safe products, eating inspected food, and enjoying countless other services funded by tax dollars, but this isn’t shaping up like much of a punch line, so let’s say she ate so many bologna and cheese Hot Pockets that she was too fat to fit into the public library meeting room.

Why did the tea party militia fail to stop the spread of socialism? Because they forgot to write “Ready, Aim, Fire!” on the palms of their hands.

Why couldn’t the tea party patriot afford to go to the NRA rally? Because he spent all his money buying unlicensed guns at the flea market.

What’s the difference between Tiger Woods and a tea party patriot? One’s a half-black linksman with ass on his mind and the other’s a half-assed thinksman with blacks on his mind.

A liberal, a conservative and a tea party patriot appear on “Good Morning America.” George Stuffenenvelopes asks them how they’d solve the economic crisis. The liberal says, “We should tax the rich and provide health care for all.” The conservative says, “We should cut taxes on the rich and run up huge deficits on endless wars.” The tea party patriot says, “We should neither tax nor borrow nor spend. We should drill, baby, drill before the Nazi death panelists take away our freedom and destroy the nation. Abortion! Terrorism! Ditto! Git-R-Done! Obamanation! Freedom! Pit bull! Dale Earnhardt!” Noticing that the conservative has been violently twisting the tea party patriot’s nipples, George Snuffleuppegus says, “What’s going on?” The conservative says, “Oh, sorry about that. I was just tuning my AM radio.”

Mankind finally destroys the planet, and Sarah Palin, John Yarmuth and Barack Obama all arrive at the pearly gates at the same time. When Palin steps forward, St. Peter says, “I’m sorry, ma’am. This will probably come as a shock to you: No Christians are allowed in heaven.” Yarmuth steps forward and says, “What about me? I’m not a Christian.” St. Peter says, “Sorry, sir, no Americans are allowed either. The Lord has ruled that absolutely no Christians and no Americans are allowed into the kingdom of heaven.” And Barack Obama goes, “SWEET!”

George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin and a tea party patriot walk into a bar. The bartender says, “I’m surprised to see you guys together!” The tea party patriot says, “Why are you surprised? All of my beliefs are based on the principles of the Founding Fathers!” Jefferson says, “Indeed, I wrote, ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal’ while schtupping my slaves.” Washington says, “I too was a slaveholder. And as ‘father of our country,’ I led the military against my own citizens in the Whiskey Rebellion because they refused to pay taxes.” And Franklin says, “Yeah, I pretended to be a Puritan, yet rarely attended church and fathered an illegitimate son.” The bartender says, “So what you have in common is that you’re all hypocrites?” “No,” says Franklin. “What we have in common is that we’re all living in the 18th century.”
