How come all the repukes in the House, except for 6, voted against funding for Iraq and Afghanistan?

[cali]

Look, I applaud the 32 dems who voted against the war funding. They've all been consistently against the wars. My rep Peter Welch was one of them, and I'm proud that he's representing his contituents. But what about the repukes? Rememeber how the MSM went after dems for votes against funding, sayimg they weren't supporting the troops? Not to mention how the repukes attacked them over it. Now here we are. We KNOW these pukesters aren't against the wars. This is purely political. And the dems and the MSM are silent. Sickening.

1. Simply because it wasn't presented by bu$h or Cheney

They are obstructionist.

[cali]

2. yep. that couldn't be clearer. but where are the dems on this?

[ThomWV]

3. See what else was in the bill

Some rider no doubt.

[ixion]

4. I read yesterday that it was in protest because there was no provision

to block photos showing "detainee" abuse.

[cali]

6. ah, thanks. well that gave them a convenient excuse

they would have found another excuse had that not been there.

[girl gone mad]

9. No.. it was all about funds to IMF..

but it should make it clear to everyone that they put money ahead of soldier's lives.

5. They voted against the IMF bailout.

8. If they actually thought that bailout might fail, they would have voted for it.

Or if President Bush was still in office they would have voted for it.

7. They only care about getting power back.

If they vote with President Obama on anything, and things go good or bad, then they can't say anything.

But if they vote against him on everything, then they can say how he messed up, even when he doesn't and say they were against it.

Since there entire method is distortion of information through media, it does not matter how often they are wrong, nobody hears about it. It only matters that they get something that they can hope fails, so they can then say they were against it.

They don't care what happens to any people anywhere, they are just being the party of no.

10. Repukes don't support the troops. n/t

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

11. I am disgusted that my "progressive" "anti-war" Democratic Rep John Hall voted for it.

[cali]

12. I don't blame you. I would have been outraged if Peter Welch

had voted for it. I'm wondering if my Senators will stand up and vote against it.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

13. Sanders will for you. I have Schumer and Gillibrand and know how they'll vote.

:banghead:

[sinkingfeeling]

14. They hate our troops and are totally un-Americans.

[timeforpeace]

15. They're always on the wrong side. Now that war is "in"

they're voting against it.

[librechik]

16. Too much money for the IMF in the bill

they must stop any charity to brown or black people with funny names or Satan will show their names to Jesus!
