1. Kucinich? A bit of a surprise.
It's a surprise only to primitives; Kucinich also voted, in 1998, to impeach the Impeached One.
-
You know, Kucinich's voting record is so goofy, I often wonder what planet he thinks he is living on.

Well, he and his space alien bride only put on their human suits for show when they are down here amongst our primitive culture. At least the female was smart enough to dress up in a hawt human female outfit - Unlike DK who looks like The Great Gazoo.

I'm not looking them up but I wish I knew the states of those Rep. who sided with the democrats. I have this theory that a NE Republican is more liberal than a SE democrat.
-
Rohrbacher was one--he was my Congresscritter when I lived in CA. He's actually quite conservative. Maybe he was voting for it because he thought it was pretty tasteless, and used that critera alone.

It's not really a theory, it's pretty much been proven fact that NE Republicans are more liberal than the rest of the congressional Republicans.
Rohrabacher is from California, I think.

Correct. Cao was the Vietnamese gentleman from "Cold Cash" Jefferson's old district in LA. Flake is AZ, and also very conservative.
Just finished looking up. Emerson is MO-8, Inglis is SC-4, Jones is NC-3, and Petri is WI-6.
Sorry, no New England RINO's on the list.

But my comparison is against the SE democrats. Not other Republicans. I bet it's a toss up.

Why do I have this sick feeling that Mr. Flake is Jeff Flake, of Arizona?
:thatsright: There are days I really do think that all 535 Congress-shits need to be lined up along the Capitol Mall and posed for rifle fire....

A reprimand!?! The primitives ought to be hopping mad. A reprimand is hardly a wimper.

What goes around, comes around. It would not surprise me in the least if the Republicans, on January 4th of 2011, reprimand all the Dems who booed President Bush in 2005 at the SOTU.

I would prefer that none of them be left in office to be reprimanded by the majority conservatives. :-)

There were some that voted "Present", Barney Frank being one of them.

So was my moonbat. Given her past, it would have been the height of hypocrisy for her to vote yes.
-
The oddity of the votes and abstentions, their great diversity, to me, indicates that this was hardly a serious matter, and it wasn't.
So the partisan Demos slap Congressman Wilson's hand, and Congressman Wilson nets another million in campaign contributions, and coasts to re-election.
I'm not the least bit worried about repercussions.

I like the fact that he came out and said he had already apologized to Obumbler, and essentially doesn't give a rats ass about the "reprimand".

And thus, it was probably completely out of character for her to merely vote "present". :mental:
