Now maybe you can make some hay out of the fact that they preferred a reprimand to censure, but I doubt it.
I have no idea how that is disinformation. They flat voted against it. Bills pass almost all the time with near unanimity on final passage but the key votes are in the amendment.
For example, in the defense bill, if someone votes to cancel missile defense, but loses the vote, and then votes for final passage on the overall bill that has missile defense in it, does that mean they supported missile defense? Hardly.
Ed, maybe you are right. I think many Conservative bloggers and posters are just so frustrated with the lack of fighting back by the GOP right now. If you cannot nail a easy target like San Francisco Socialist Pelosi, who can you target?
