So my pub Senator Bond (never was all that fond of him anyway) voted Nay. Apparently McCaskill voted yea? Not bad for a Dim. If she wasn’t a pro-abortion gun grabber, she wouldn’t be half bad.

Based on that list, it appears that, once again, just like with amnesty, each party has an agenda. Dems seek the union vote. And I’ll bet most of those Republicans have been involved in introducing or voting for some kind of cheap labor shamnesty.

Every one of those Republican Senators just gave the finger to their constituents.

Thanks for posting the votes. It looks like Goober got the message. He’s up for re-election in 08. Whats the deal with McCain missing these votes?

So, explain again why we must vote R???? Well even a broken watch is right twice a day. I see it was along party lines. The Dems would vote for Satan before they would vote for anything that would help the U.S. Military or President Bush. Irregardless, I feel it was the correct vote.
