Republicans voting with Obama

Roughly half of House Republicans voted in favor of the punitive 90 percent tax on AIG bonuses. Many of them must have heard from their constituents because the number voting in favor of today's "Pay for Performance Act" totaled only 10. Michelle Malkin lists the 10 on her website but of particular importance to this old fool was the vote of Congressman Dana Rohrabacher, who represents parts of Orange County, California. Usually, Rohrabacher is a safe conservative vote. He has not explained either his vote in favor of the AIG 90-percent-of-bonus tax or today's vote, but needs to.
