I'm too lazy/busy to look it up and post it this morning.  There were actually TWO votes regarding the Rangel censure.  Anyone got the time to find them in Thomas.loc and link them here?  I'm curious to see how my soon-to-be-ex-moonbatcritter voted on both of those.

She voted against the amendment to change the censure to a reprimand.

Roll 606

She voted for the censure.

Roll 607

There was the censure vote itself and an amendment to reduce the punishment from censure to reprimand.  The link to the censure vote doesn't seem to be working.

H.RES.1737
Title: In the matter of Representative Charles B. Rangel.
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/D?d111:2:./temp/~bdsbgA::|/home/LegislativeData.php|

H.AMDT.784 (A001)
Amends: H.RES.1737
Sponsor: Rep Butterfield, G. K. [NC-1] (offered 12/2/2010)
AMENDMENT PURPOSE:
An amendment to change the recommendation of censure contained in the resoluttion to that of reprimand.

Holy smokes--she actually voted to censure him?  After all that money he gave her?

Guess she has a conscience after all.  Too bad she discovered it just a bit too late.
