I used to hate Heath Shuler because he was a Redskin... but he was also a total bust for the Redskins... so I guess that's a net positive.

Now, with this, he's entering FF territory.

A few of these are acceptable and I would actually be rather upset if they did vote for it (Minnick, Kratovil, possibly Shuler), but many of these are just disgustingly unjustifiable - especially after the stunt Cooper pulled. What an asshat.

Bright, Minnick, and possibly Kratovil and Griffith will be out on the streets after 2010 regardless of how they vote, so it doesn't really matter.

These people should just convert to Republicans so they can hate America and not be questioned.

Roll Eyes

Really. As if 177 Republicans really opposed the package, and as if 244 Democrats really supported it. The only people that surprise me are Boyd, Cooper and maybe Kratovil.

RedState cited him as a canary in the coal mine for Obama's problems with Congress. It's all pretty laughable.
