Thirty-nine House Democrats voted against
adjournment after Minority Leader John Boehner
(R-Ohio) urged opposition to the motion in a floor
speech that said it would be irresponsible for
Congress to leave without providing certainty
on the tax issue. Dozens of Democrats in tough
races voted against adjourning.
"Vote no on this adjournment resolution. Give
Congress a chance to vote on extending tax
rates," Boehner said.
Boehner's floor speech turned the vote on
adjournment into a referendum on the tax cuts,
which has divided Democrats for months. President
Obama wants to extend tax cuts for families making
less than $250,000, while allowing taxes to rise on
income above that threshold. Many Democrats
have joined Republicans in arguing for extending
all of the tax cuts.
Here's the full list of Democrats who voted against
adjournment:
Rep. John Adler (N.J.)
Rep. Jason Altmire (Pa.)
Rep. Michael Arcuri (N.Y.)
Rep. Melissa Bean (Ill.)
Rep. Tim Bishop (N.Y.)

Rep. Mary Jo Kilroy (Ohio)

I notice my congressman (if you can call him that),
Lincoln Davis did vote for the adjournment.
His one vote could have prevented the adjounment
before considering the extention of tax cuts.
I hope the voters of the 4th congressional of
Tennessee take that into account, as well as the
rest of you who had a dhimmi congressman who
didn't vote the right way.
What we are doing if we believe the dhimmicraps
is buying a pig in a poke, we don't know that
Obama and the dhimmis will indeed extent cuts
for anyone after the election or not.
We do know that increasing taxes on those
making over a quarter million will have no effect
on the balooning budget defficits, on the contrary
it will have a debilitory effect on the economy and
adding new jobs or calling laid off workers back
into the work force.
Furthermore some of us know that obama and
dhimmi rhetoric on taxing the rich is a lie and
fruad upon the American people, the are proposing
we severely discriminate against the top end of
the middle class and nothing is ever mentioned
about the really wealthy, who have their money
in tax free trusts.
Marxism 101, eliminate the bourgeoisie.
How many understand that if we have a $1.5
trillion deficit this year that we are in effect
giving, tax free, $1.5 trillion to the wealthy
elite of the world who have the power to
create this money out of thin air and spend
it as they wish??
