“We never passed a single thing in the House in our majority, except for the budget every year without the Democrats helping us. Not one time.” – Roy Blunt
At this rate, I can’t wait for Roy Blunt to start talking about stopping earmarks and limiting lobbyist influence.
Extra Blunt news (6:30pm CST): According to the Blunt twitter, candidate Blunt is “very pleased to get the endorsement of Sam Graves at my announcement event in St. Joseph”. The feed also notes that Blunt bought some blue jeans.
What lobbyist? No, no, not that one, this lobbyist.
Good find on that vote. Our list of votes at Fired Up! includes the straight party-line votes that passed with 0 Dems and 0 Repubs crossing the aisle.It seems like the Gentleman may need to revise and extend his remarks.
