I guess my opinion that they should resign is because they were showing disrespect for their elected office. When you are an elected official, there are often times when you have to put aside personal beliefs, and stand in that office. If you can't do that, you shouldn't be in the office.

A man/woman without personal beliefs is no good for public office. Character is where the stregth of those who represent us lies - no character and we end up with another clintoon, or a muslim disguised as "tolerant citizen". A public servant without personal beliefs is one step closer to a one world government, where everybody is treated like a third class citizen. You have gotten too many opportunities in this thread to say something factual or at least wise and you are unable. Yahweh rebuke your ignorance.

BS. An elected person needs to stand up for the ideas of the people who elected him. These two fine members did just that. To hear Lpers whine about "Republican in Name only" (Rinos) and then tear into them when they do as elected to makes me sick.
