Who are the 17 Dems who voted incorrectly on Holder?

[Iwillnevergiveup]

The smoke has cleared. Not only did these folks not walk out of the vote to screw over Holder, they voted with Republicans to censure him:

Jason Altmire (PA-04)
John Barrow (GA-12)
Dan Boren (OK-02)
Leonard Boswell (IA-03)
Ben Chandler (KY-08)
Mark Critz (PA-12)
Joe Donnelly (IN-02)
Kathy Hochul (NY-28)
Ron Kind (WI-03)
Larry Kissell (NC-08)
Jim Matheson (UT-02)
Mike McIntyre (NC-07)
Bill Owens (NY-23)
Collin Peterson (MN-07)
Nick Rahill (WV-03)
Mike Ross (AR-04)
Tim Walz (MN-01)

[Iwillnevergiveup]

1. Boner didn't vote n/t

[former9thward]

33. By House tradition the Speaker does not vote.

He/she only votes when it looks like it may be very close. Occasionally they will vote when they are trying to make a public statement on something but that is not common.

[onehandle]

2. Gun loons. nt

[MrSlayer]

3. All slaves to the NRA.

That is no excuse but they felt their chances of reelection were safer if they went lobbyist over party.

Cowards in other words.
Whores might be another way of saying it.

Blue dog scum might be yet another.

[Iwillnevergiveup]

4. Probably all of the above.

Sickening!

I was also disappointed to see Debbie Wasserman-Schultz didn't walk out.

[Iggy]

5. Donnelly's Office

will be getting an irate call from me in the morning.

_very_ disappointed in him

[yardwork]

6. Mike McIntyre is no surprise - hopelessly Blue Dog Democrat who votes wrong on everything.

Larry Kissell is not so bad, but represents a very conservative district he was lucky to wrest from Republican hands and will be lucky to retain.

[Worried senior]

7. Kind from WI

think I'll email him and say shame on you.

[shcrane71]

8. Boswell looks old. I hope he retires soon. nt

[Frustratedlady]

15. Boswell surprised me.

I think I'll write to his office and ask WHY!

[shcrane71]

34. Thank you! Let us know what he says.

I'm curious.

[rateyes]

9. cowards

[Teamster Jeff]

10. If they think their re-election chances will be hurt, I wonder what they wouldn't vote for? Scary!

[Z_I_Peevey]

11. Scummy little Danny Boren isn't even running for re-election.

So there is no excuse.

[sagesnow]

12. Very disappointed to see Boswell on that list

I will now have to withhold my financial support d/t that vote. Unfortunately, He won't miss it if he is bought out by the NRA.

[Pab Sungenis]

13. Like I said in another thread...

...the aisle is that way. Cross it.

[BumRushDaShow]

14. Critz was Murtha's replacement in PA.

so you can imagine that district, the seat for which the pukes were vying for big time.

Altmire was a given.

[femmocrat]

30. What irks me about Altmire is that he had nothing to lose.

He is already re-districted out of his seat. He could have voted against the censure if he had a spine.

[Iwillnevergiveup]

16. So the breakdown isn't too bad

Turncoats:

2 in PA, 2 in MN, 2 in NY, 2 in NC. Obama should carry all these states.

7 singles in GA, OK, KY, ID, WV, IA, WI, IN, UT. Obama should carry 2 of these states - Iowa and Wisconsin.

[AtomicKitten]

17. They were kowtowing to the NRA. A-holes one and all.

[footinmouth]

18. Very disappointed in the 2 NY Dems

Kathy Hochul - Shame on you, although I think I understand the vote. She won this seat in a special election in a very red district. I was so thrilled to see it finally go blue. Now the powers that be redrew the district and made it even redder. Her new well-financd opponent for the seat accused her of "masquerading as a moderate" in this morning's Buffalo News. In order to hang on to this seat she's going to have to make some unpopular votes. Still, I'd rather keep her voting with the Dems most of the time than her opponent who will vote with Republicans ALL the time.

Bill Owens - I believe he's representing the Watertown area, also very very red.

I'm still disappointed in both of them on this vote.

[Puzzledtraveller]

19. I think making it racial, partisan whater is not wise

Even if we believe that is their motivation.

[Iwillnevergiveup]

20. Not sure I understand you

We're talking about 17 Democrats who made history by turning their backs on a Cabinet member (and President) for no good reason. Even 2 Republicans saw the light and the Boner chose not to vote at all. The Republicans are the ones who made it partisan, and 17 Dems went along with them.

[Puzzledtraveller]

21. The appearance is what is questionable

A border agent died, they could have just stayed and cast their votes against it and made a statement. I personally do not like how they handled this.

[ananda]

22. Their names should go on a wall of shame.

[livetohike]

23. Critz and Altmire have no guts - neither are my Rep, but I am

sending them e-mails anyway, or perhaps a phone call. My rep is a teabagging fool.

[frylock]

24. bunch of b-listers..

never heard of any of these tools.

[jillan]

25. Traitors!!!

[valerief]

26. They're Republicans in Dem's clothing. nt

[PoliticAverse]

27. There was no 'censure' vote. n/t

[hedgehog]

28. I'm very critical of Blue Dogs but I spotted Bill Owens name -

Bill Owens is the first Democratic congressman from this district in a long, long time, maybe the first ever! He generally votes with the Party. I can forgive him this vote.

[FLAprogressive]

29. The usual.....

[Swede Atlanta]

31. Each of them will be hearing from me tomorrow....

[cocoman]

32. 17 cowards

17 cowards and traitors among us... i only wish the two in n.y. were in my district...never get my vote again and all 17 should be removed as soon as possible...no excuse for bending over for special interests..
