I thought it was 9. Either way they need to get more than the finger in return. Simply treasonous behavior by non representatives.

Words can not express (well not in public) how I feel. I got home in time to see those *@^#%$ gloat over screwing America. The majority of which did not want this energy tax imposed upon us.

I hadn't heard this. thanks for the posting. However, these are not Republicans in the true sense of the word. The best description is RINO. I think there are more in the Republican ranks than we know. The biggest example was Sen. Specter who just changed sides. Wow! What a surprise!
I held my nose and went to the polls and voted for McCain last election, knowing it was a lost cause. Just a gesture I guess.

Lucky me Lance is mine. I contacted his office before the vote and told them they need to vote no.
I contacted them after the vote to tell them he is done next election. I will vote for a dem to get him out if I have to. These guys have to learn who they work for.

My X, daughter and son-in-law all voted for Lobiondo. As you they will vote for anybody but Lobiondo! When they are in D.C. they get swept up by the hype and forget about who they are representing.


VOTE the GANG of 8 out of friggin office.

And the real rub????

It would have died with only 4 of these morons voting properly. Let's make sure we contact our senators where it has a better chance of dying.

In states like CA where Ag and Industry are support the state, CA can't afford the lost revenue of this anti-American bill.

These boys were paid off. No other explanation is available. This is good reason to make a concerted effort to be certain they never have the opportunity to do this again. Your vote and those of like minded individuals counts.

Not again in 2010. . . . .right?

Trouble I see is these traitors knew. They knew this onerous bill was a bad one. They knew their constituents did not want anything to do with it. They knew.

So does your vote really mean anything. These holes give douche bags a bad name. They conspired with the DNC to push this bill through for reasons that we do not see.

Someone higher up than we can see will benefit. This is my humble opinion.

P.S. Add them to this list and you should be able to start getting a handle on how deep the rabbit hole goes.

Martinez fortunately is on the way out in 2010, by choice...his hand picked successor is Crist. All sane conservatives intend to vote for Rubio in the pirmary in Fl. Let's see what happens because we know Crist is a RINO also.

As far as the 8 GOPers who voted for the stupid bill, they allowed 8 of those 55 dems who voted against it to keep their seats because they were committed to vote for it if it looked like it would not pass. Most of those who voted no did so as a sham to be electable in 2010. Since the big news in the press the past two days was about a philander conservative GOP Gov and an accused pediphile, it is not hard to see how the voters are kept in the dark.

Contact these Cap and Tr8tors as they still have 4 days and 9 hours to change their vote!

Go to:
http://teapartypatriots.org/

Per the website, contact their offices direct as they are not in D.C. and are on fickin' vacation! The COWARDS!

Edit: I heard yesterday that one of them was up for a defense dept. appointment by Sotoro. I want to say it was the yellow lined back coward from NY?

If you want to see how your Congresscritter voted, try this site: http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2009/index.asp Go to colum with Bill No., 2454 inthis case then check ROLL on left hand collum. It will tell how your Rep. voted. Be careful when you do this on some bills because sometimes a vote for is a vote against and vice-versa. This one is straight up. There is a lot of info on this sit if you want to dig around in it.

I put the word out over on resistnet and most of those over there were not aware that we still had 4 days (yesterday) to get votes changed. Now, we are trying to run down the traitors and lean on them.

Add Conyers to the list of backstabbers. Nobody votes like this or makes decisions like this if they don't stand to benefit somehow. Conyers wifey, busted for payola on a grand scale over sludge and slime, same for him.

Edit: He closed the investigation into Acorn and possible improprieties.

How can you tell if your elected representative is lying? Apparently, their lips are moving. Maybe? I mean, why bother those poor folks over at Acorn? They're only looking out for . . . .? Who?

Dude,

America would be shocked to it's core if they knew how deep the rabbit hole was, where it started or where it leads.

I fear the sheeple will not awaken in time to stop this BS. I just hope the revo.lution is big enough to make the change.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.

But how many Americans will be willing to become traitors to Fedzilla to follow our Founding Father's instructions? How many will be willing to die or kill to force the usurpers to their knees to give the power back to the people? I fear precious few will answer the call although many will hear it.

The rabbit hole starts long before 1776 in London within the hallowed halls of The Bank of London.

Folks have bought into the big hand out. Food, shelter, clothes etc. Chance you could lose the house, or the GMC Denali, not to mention the kids college. Better toe the line.

I have read this many times and I concur with your belief in the Constitution and assessment of the current social state of affairs.

It'll be some party. I believe the real concern here is that the "usurpers have started something they cannot control and will lose the reigns of power all on their own. This game of global brinkmanship that is being played out now will have dire consequences. With nearly 7 billion people world wide, control is a fantasy.

How many times in the media have the players been quoted as saying "don't waste a good crisis"? The monetary games being played have only one ending, a totally devalued dollar, hyper-inflation and soup and bread lines. Only this time, there are just too dang many of us.

how to feed them all? Sheeple don't see it coming because they have either drank the Obysmal Koolaid or they are just trying to keep their heads above water.

I see ads proclaiming how to profit in the coming depression. To be sure, there is a good possibility of profit on the bones of those under your financial thumb but profit is less of a concern to me than survival.

I wouldn't worry about rev.o.lution just yet. Things will have to get really bad. before the sheeple finally get that they have been sold into slavery. Slavery that only a rev.o.lution will free them from.

It will take a a serious blunder on the part of the great Obysmal, a great deal of suffering by the sheeple at large, and a charismatic leader who will promise not liberty or freedom but food and shelter. Then sir, you will have your rev.o.lution

This is of course, IMHO.

As most U.S. Representatives now have filters on their email to keep people from outside their district from writing to them, may those of you, who they represent, let them know that you look forward to their 2010 exit from office.

These 8 make Blue Dog Dems look like conservatives.
