    Congressional Pay Raise Blocked

    The $1,700 cost-of-living increase failed on a 402-15 vote. It also was rejected without a roll-call vote by the Senate last week. Members of Congress are paid $174,000 a year.

    Who were the 15 that voted FOR a pay raise?

    Clyburn
    Conyers
    Edwards (MD)
    Ellison
    Jackson Lee (TX)
    Johnson, E. B.
    Kilpatrick (MI)
    Lee (CA)
    Meeks (NY)
    Moran (VA)
    Payne
    Thompson (MS)
    Towns
    Watt
    Woolsey


    ALL democrats.

    Edwards (MD) looks like she could be Obama's sister. It is uncanny.

    Political correctness has now run amok..... but let me add, we'll never know now, unless some daddies comes forward to see if they can make a buck out of the deal.
