The FISA Vote Roll Call
I didn't see anyone post this yesterday so here goes.

http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2008/roll437.xml

I live in Colorado and it's a disappointing list for me. At least Diana Degette stuck to her guns and voted her constituents wishes. My rep Ed Perlmutter, who I have to say has usually voted progressive, let me down and voted with Marilyn Musgrave. What really burns me is Mark Udall. He's running for our open Senate seat and voted Yay. Great another Bluedog Senator in the making. By contrast his cousin Tom Udall (UT) voted Nay. I wish we could trade.

1. Here is a post, and more in the comments there.
FISA Yes votes by state and caucus. The president got a very good deal.

3. Mine noted "No"!
Good, because I sent him an email deriding Democrats for being spineless pansies to a man that has a 28% approval rating and a party that's going to get their asses handed to them on a silver platter in 5 months. I also told him that Democrats need to replace the Slinky in their spines with a stainless-steel rod.




I lightly paraphrase, of course...

6. Yeah...
...steel in the spine does not mean a Slinky!

I was going to say "put some steel in your spine and some brass in your balls", but figured that woudn't be appropiate...
