Probably because of the minimum wage and pork.

2. Is that some kind of procedural move?
Either that or he must REALLY oppose raising the minimum wage with every fiber of his being.

Oh well, a no vote is a no vote.

4. The "pork" (like minimum wage)
A few of the ultra conservatives voted no.

5. He was confused, I'm sure.
But I can never tell what the hell's going on with him--he's all over the map these days.

He'll never be known as the voice of reason, that's for sure . . . .

Did you get a lot of rain today, Karl? We had a downpour in OKC right after 7 am with some hail. It was soo much fun to drive to work in it--not.

8. I'm guessing the conservative R's knew it was a "safe" vote and
are protecting their conservative ratings by voting against the pork/minimum wage increase.
