The Crazy Eight: Republicans Who Voted For Waxman-Markey
ByThe House of Representatives approved the Waxman-Markey energy tax by a margin of 219-212. We’d like to point out that the Democrats did not have the votes to pass the legislation without the following eight Republicans who joined the majority for this monster tax:
- Bono Mack (CA) 202-225-5330
- Castle (DE) 202-225-4165
- Kirk (IL) 202-225-4835
- Lance (NJ) 202-225-5361
- Lobiondo (NJ) 202-225-6572
- McHugh (NY) 202-225-4611
- Reichart (WA) 202-225-7761
- Chris Smith (NJ) 202-225-3765
This is a huge slap at a popular conservative movement that campaigned fervently online and offline against this tax. We think that primary opponents should probably begin their campaigns to unseat these RiNOs today.
Thanks to Margaret Ciocco for being the first to forward to us the names and telephone numbers, above.
