Patriot Act Extension FAILS

[PeacePlan]

Michele Bachmann is my rep and I just emailed her about her yes vote. I will call her tomorrow at her local and Fed offices.

She sucks............

Hope it makes ya feel better, but it's probably just a waste of time. She's a pretty hardcore warhawk.

Utah rep. Jason Chaffetz voted yes. Disgusting, and we all liked him.

Flake and Chaffetz voted for it???

Wow. They really go down a notch or two in my book for that...

Marlin Stutzman voted YEA, but he said in the C4L survey that he would not vote for the it.

Those guys all have some splainin' to do!

McClintock is fairly Tea.

Yep, he's nearly the best we have in California...

This was his reasoning:

"This is just a temporary extension, so the Judiciary Committee can dive a little deeper into the details," said Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah), a second-term lawmaker closely aligned with tea party activists. "That seemed fair. I don't want to let it expire without giving it full contemplation."

With all due respect Jason, that sounds like an excuse. Did the GOP establishment give this as a reason for putting it on the "suspension calendar"? Will the Judiciary Committee actually come back with any new information? What is their deadline for completing their investigation? Why not let it expire, and if they propose some Constitutionally acceptable bills, then they can be voted on?

 

[HOLLYWOOD]

From the GOP leadership, because they want the GOP to be united on every issue.

Yeah, this is real brainiac of those morons, they're suppose to cote for what their constituents demand, not what THEIR PARTY says.

the "voting political party line bullshit: will always be the bain of the country and US Constitution.

Don't sweat it, we've all been duped more than once. Rand Paul is the only one, so far, that I've been skeptical about who's impressing me...oh, and Justin Amash (but I haven't been following him as closely.)

The best woman ever elected to public office would never have voted for this. That would be the late, great Helen Chenoweth. I miss her so much.

Republican 210 26 5
Democratic 67 122 4

Again proves that the Democrats are still the lesser of the two evils.

No it doesn't, not in the least.

You should checkout the backlash on his fb page.... http://www.facebook.com/pages/Jason-Chaffetz/212373730233

Post and tell him what you think of his vote

The same thing is happening in Michael Grimm's Facebook, and while conservative, it's nowhere's near as red as Utah.

The guy used to be a FBI special agent. That should have at least sent off some warning bells.

I don't think an official announcement was actually necessary, but it does demonstrate integrity. Thank you!

And I did contribute to your campaign, Gunny. Thank you ,for the hard work (speaking of integrity).

She sucks............

I think she might think twice if she understood that she incurred the huge wrath of the Ron Paul revolutionaries. We should all contact her office.

 

[Fox McCloud]

so a total of 6 potential Tea Party people really do possibly stand for liberty...out of all the new ones that were elected...pathetic and sad.

 

[Working Poor]

I was surprised to see Pelosi on the list of nay votes.

 

[smoking357]

Jeff Flake
Jason Chaffetz
Mick Mulvaney

They ran as Tea Party Republicans and voted Yes for this. Those pieces of crap need to be voted out of the House in 2012.

What we need is coalition government. This two-party system is tyranny. The Constitution provides for one rep for every 30,000 people. We have 435 of them for 310 million. You do the math. If we had a lot more representatives, we could break the two-party stranglehold.

Sorry, but you optimists here are really kind of funny. You're still political believers. On a true libertarian site, we're not surprised, in the least, by what the Tea Partiers are and will do. This is exactly what we knew would happen.

Hey guys!!!

How have your tea party and republican saviors worked for you?

Do you think it's an accident that Amash got elected? Ron Paul said we need to get active in the local GOP. But it seems that most of us have decided to ignore him, opting to stand on the sidelines and shout about our failures.

I'm disappointed, but not surprised.
