I can't believe Gray voted for it, maybe she got mixed up as well?<BR/><BR/>Still, with a split largely along party lines, that may not bode well for today's vote.Jeff Sadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03972004592729833310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10214951.post-40765055969865034102008-04-29T07:19:00.000-05:002008-04-29T07:19:00.000-05:00Check out the posting on Forgotston.com for the ac...Check out the posting on Forgotston.com for the actual vote.

If you know for sure differently, let me know.

Everybody wants something for their area and, by definition therefore, nobody provides a strong voice for the exact opposite, reducing government. I'm hoping he returns to his roots which I think are for smaller government and thus supportive of a tax cut. Or, as we used to say a quarter-century ago, "let Reagan be Reagan."Jeff Sadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03972004592729833310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10214951.post-28077720556070210892008-04-28T08:06:00.000-05:002008-04-28T08:06:00.000-05:00Jeff,Check your facts.
