Wait- you're not saying it was unanimous.
There were several GOTP no votes.
Why? Who are these guys? and what possible aversion couild they have to reauthorizing the VAWA? (Is it relaly cuz it starts with "V"?)
Colorado Roll-call
Coffman, AYE
DeGette, AYE
Gardner, AYE
Lamborn, NO
Perlmutter, AYE
Polis, AYE
Tipton, AYE
Note that Lamborn also voted NO on the watered-down Republican version of the bill, making him one of a select few truly anti-woman asshats.
The rest of our delegation to its credit not only voted for the Senate version of the bill, but didn't vote for the watered-down version.
They can't help themselves. Especially Lamborn, possibly the very biggest asshat in Congress.
Frankly, I'm surprised than any of them voted for it. Maybe they're finally getting the idea that they shouldn't alienate women either? Will the pandering be far behind?
Definitely. Because on this blog, Republicans are damned if they do and damned if they don't.
You bet. People don't usually go from pro-rape to anti-rape because of a change of heart. But election stats don't lie, do they?
And Colorado has so often turned out to be a harbinger of things to come. Of course it's not just Colorado. How many times now has Boehner felt forced to break the no vote without a majority of the R majority on board rule in the House? How many bills passing now that wouldn't have even been brought to a vote in the House in the recent past? And how many Rs like Coffman who have been among the reliable nays suddenly finding reasons to vote yes on bills passed by the D minority with mnority R help?
I've been watching the generic congressional preference polls at Real Clear lately and, for the first time, am seeing a sustained and hefty preference for Ds including from La's fave, Rasmussen. While generics don't predict specific races, a susatined and sizeable change like this has meaning.
After decades of being told that we need the titans to do well so they'll create jobs for us, the public is catching on to the fact that no amount of favors to those titans has created jobs and middle class income has been stagnating or shrinking ever since the love affair with Reagan's war on the government of the people as a bad thing and endorsement of greed as the greatest good.
Turns out, we the people are getting screwed because all that greed is just greed and it really and truly only benefits the most successfully greed, a tiny, tiny elite who couldn't care less about the American middle class.
Have a nice day, ArapG. Looks like those circled wagons are becoming a good old fashioned circular firing squad..
Note: Coffman, Tipton, and Gardner all voted YEA on the watered down version of the bill last year, so their change of position is welcome if a bit late in coming.
