- Voted AGAINST the surge:
Had Ingles gotten his way, we would have surrendered to Al Qaeda, granting them victory in our most clearly defined battlefield.
- For an inside look at Iraq's
importance to Al Qaeda, please read the following field report, courtesy of Michael Totten and Colonel Mike Silverman: "Al Qaeda Lost"
- For a poignant reminder of the
hands into which Inglis voted to leave the Iraqi people, please read the following post by Victor Davis Hanson: "Thyestean Feast." .
- Voted FOR the Democrat's
2007 Energy Policy that mandated reliance on biofuels while not allowing oil supplies to increase. The policy also stiffened regulations and raised taxes $2 billion (ACU-6).
- Voted FOR Pelosi's "light-
bulb ban" that, as the ACU explains, regulates "lights and appliances (including a ban on the incandescent light bulb), creating new programs for alternative energy sources, imposing more regulations on energy companies and mandating vastly increased use of ‘renewable’ energy” (ACU 6).
- Voted FOR censuring fellow
S.C. Rep. Joe Wilson for shouting "You Lie," during an Obama address (Kraushaar). Click the below link to watch Democratic law- makers heckle Bush en masse during an '05 address:
- Voted FOR applying McCain
/ Feingold to grassroots organizations (ACU-4) NOTE: Undoubtedly, in this instance, the dems were the good guys. This was GOP- sponsored and nearly ALL republicans voted for it. However, we at Remove the Rinos believe there is no excuse for voting against the 1st Amendment no matter how many republicans do so and no matter how reprehensible George Soros’ 527s are. And if John McCain were to jump off a bridge…..??
- Voted AGAINST drilling in
ANWR in 2005 (ACU 2).
- Voted AGAINST drilling in
ANWR in 2006 (ACU-4) .
- Voted AGAINST a 2008
motion to allow drilling in ANWR, the Outer- Continental Shelf, and other territories in the West (ACU-8).
- Voted AGAINST banning
taxpayer dollars from going to the U.N. to renovate, or build anew, their headquarters in the United States (ACU 4).
- Voted AGAINST an amend-
ment "to prevent a federal court in Indiana from ban- ning prayer in the Indiana House of Representatives" (ACU 4).
- Voted FOR raising CAFE
standards (ACU-2) For a look at the link between higher CAFE standards and increased traffic fatalities, as well as the folly of the economic justifications for higher standards, see what Dennis Kneale has to say: "New CAFE" (CNBC-1).
- Voted FOR spending an
additional $100 million on Public Broadcasting (ACU)
- Voted AGAINST a ban on
federal eminent-domain seizures that force property out of the hands of private citizens and into the hands of private developers (ACU 2).
- Voted FOR raising min-
imum wage after the Dems rejected tax cuts that would have protected entry-level workers and small businesses (ACU-6) . For insights into the harmful effects the measure, in its House form, would have meant to workers and small businesses, National Review Online consulted with four leading economists. All four economists agreed that only politicians stood to gain from the measure : "At Minimum…Should Republicans fight back against a minimum-wage increase?"
- Voted FOR a 700% increase
in funding for the HOPE VI Public Housing Program, even as $2 billion remained in the coffers, unspent. This was a program that Bush had marked for elimination (ACU-8).
