According to the House clerk's website, Griffith:
- Voted against the Wall Street Consumer Reform and Protection Act (more government takeover of private finance)
- Voted against the Permanent Estate Tax Relief for Families, Farmers, and Small Businesses Act of 2009 (a Democrat bill that actually REPEALED a provision in the tax code preventing certain types of tax increases)
- Voted against the Affordable Health Care for America Act (i.e. Obamacare)
- Voted against the Food Safety Enhancement Act of 2009 (IIRC, this was the bill that can be construed as prohibiting private gardens as a step towards federal control over the food supply).
- Voted against the recent increase of the debt ceiling that allows the fedgov to continue spending more and more
Seems to me that he already is a conservative, if his voting record on major recent issues means anything. Sounds like a conservative who came home. why on earth would we need to "run a conservative against him in the primary"? So we can split the vote and let the Dems have the seat back?
Yeah, that looks like a pretty decent record to me in a short time period. I’m willing to give him a fair chance.
I agree.

Knee jerk ideological purity gave us a 60 seat Rat Senate. How's that working for us?
I dont think that qualifies him as a limited government type conservative...
Let the voters in his district make the choice, and how does it split the vote to run someone against him in the PRIMARY?
There is a video of him getting irate and taking the Lord's name in vain. I will paste when I find it.
Never mind posting the facts of Rep. Griffith’s voting record. The knuckle-draggers here have already deemed him a RINO and formed a mob to throw him out. I swear a good number of these so-called “true conservatives” are actually leftists out to secure a permanent majority for the Dummycrats.
