Johnson from Wisconsin just gave up his seat to Russ Feingold. Shame and Disgrace. All of them!

Nope, cannot run for the most important leadership positing in the world by ducking making tough decisions

None of his foes are going to let anyone forget that when push came to shove, Brave Brave Sir Rubio ran away

Burr voted no because he is up for re-election; Tillis voted yes because he is not up for re-election.

My representatives are irrelevant to me x two yrs. I do not contact them any more. They might as well be dead

Such a shocker!
Traitors both and Cochrane is a crook.
Wicker has proved himself “worthless,” and looking sleazier every day.

Of all bills to miss voting, Rubio does not show up. Who wants a president who is not there? We have one now like that. This absence should be broadcast far and wide.

Not at all, I fully expected to see their names listed in the “yeas”. (I saw your sarcasm tag :) )

Roberts (KS) is a yes. Not surprised a bit. He’s rubbing our nose in not getting rid of him last year.

Rubio didn’t do anything different when Cruz was partying with the gays last year. That was excused as his vote wasn’t needed....well Rubio’s wasn’t needed either. What fair for one is fair for all. Trump 2016. Screw First Term Senator Rubio and Cruz.

They think we are STUPID! Burr (R-NC) voted against, he is up for reelection next year...Tillis (R-NC), elected in 2014, voted for! You do the math! (At least my Rep. Walter Jones voted against, for all the good it did.)

To think we’ve been hearing/singing that song since the 70’s, and the sentiment’s been there even longer, and things only get worse.

Brave Sir Rubio ran away
Bravely ran away away
When the Budget reared its ugly head
He bravely turned his tail and fled
Yes, brave Sir Rubio turned about
And gallantly he chickened out

Bravely taking to his feet
He beat a very brave retreat
Bravest of the brave, Sir Rubio!

Possibly because it lifted the ban on exporting oil. We have a lot of radical environmentalism here in Oregon.

They probably wanted more spending...

Just like Bernie's no vote

Cornyn was only conservative at election. Traitorous POS is sitting pretty until 2020, IIRC.

To: Personal Responsibility

“In 2008, all we heard from Republicans was “We are the minority! We can’t do anything! Get us back in control of the House.” We got them back the House. We told them we’d be watching how they vote.”

When Bush was elected we had at least 4 years and I think 6 of a GOP house, senate, and a close working majority on the Supreme court. They did nothing then. Time to accept that they are exactly the way they want to be.

I see our freshman Senator Gardner from CO voted in favor. Interestingly enough, it was the Tea Party that got him elected. I’ll be voting for the Democrat who runs against him next chance I get.
