An Executive Order that can be reversed by Presidential fiat from a President WHOSE FIRST ACT IN OFFICE was an Executive Order allowing international funding of abortion is what convinced him?
What version of Stupak “man hug”-style dirt did the Chicago guys dig up???
Not a happy day in what used to be the United States of America! I bid you farewell old friend!
Berry voted no.
Kirkpatrick’s (’RAT-AZ) ass is grass. I’m going to work hard over the next 8 months making sure she gets thrown out on her goatsmellin’ ass.
Even Cao voted no. Not a single Republican.
I think the biggest reason that the Dems bulled healthcare “reform” through this time, as opposed to 1993, is that the insurance companies colluded with them. In 1993, the insurance companies led the opposition and spent tons of money on the Harry and Louise ads.
did Boren vote no? his line has been busy for 3 days
I am flying my flag upside down tomorrow to signify that America is in distress. Our life and property are in danger.
Thank you for posting this. I checked my state’s delegation. I’m happy to say that ALL of Alabama’s reps voted “no” included Bright and Davis who are RATS.

Do one thing today to make a democrat’s life miserable...
Now we know how Jews in Germany must have felt the night the Nuremberg Laws were passed.
A really, really sad day...

Closely contested seats for Dems, or possible pick-ups for Rs. There are others, but I have only listed those where Obama was only up by 50-55% in that district in 2008, or ones that McCain actually won.
There are a couple of that are exceptions to the above, but I listed them because a recent poll in the last 2-3 months either showed them even or behind a R opponent.
