Image credit: National ArchivesThis is the Constitution. The House took a giant dump on it today. When the Senate gets through with it next week, it really will be just a goddamned piece of paper.
These people voted to destroy our country. There's really no other way to put it. To "protect" us from some religious fanatics who live in caves, these representatives voted to amend FISA in a way that essentially guts it. You now have no right of privacy from the government. Keep that in mind the next time you do some online banking.
For their complete and utter fecklessness, not to mention their cowardice, these lowest forms of the human species deserve their very own Beggies. Never before has such a large group of people been awarded this dishonor, and few have deserved it more. Except maybe the Senate, who may soon be repeat winners.
From the roll call, where "Yea" means "Yes, I'm pissing my pants because a few nuts think America is Satan", and "Nay" means "No, I remember the last time you people wanted me to give up my rights, and it wasn't worth it then, either":

I'm not going to bother with first names. The people who did this don't deserve that much consideration. They aren't worth the oxygen they consume.
What they deserve is their just reward, a dog biscuit, procurement of and payment for which is the responsibility of the awardees. Enjoy your biscuits ladies and gentlemen. I'm sure it must be hard work destroying a country as big as this one.
UPDATE: I'd like to thank whoever visited from the House this afternoon. Always nice to see our government paying attention to us citizens.

Nice. If I wasn't saving my money to donate to the PAC that's going to use Steny Hoyer's guts for garters, I'd have bought the biscuits, tied them with a little bow, and mailed them with a copy of this post to each Yea vote myself.
Fucking spineless cowards. They definitely earned their Beggie.
If you'd done that, they'd have probably assumed it was an attempted bribe. I don't think you could count on this article clueing them in, either. Some may not even realize they use oxygen.
Well, after today, we certainly know they aren't reality-based.
One repug crossed over just like always. Mine whored himself out as usual.These people do whatever they want because they can. Our side has won squat in almost 8 years. There is more going on here than meets the eye.
Could be, One Fly, but I think that all you need to remember for this to make sense is that these people are the economic elite of this country, and they're all together there in their own little community. The rest of the country might as well be on another planet.
Isolated populations can quickly develop the own habits, beliefs, customs, etc. I've noticed it in the people I work with who were in the Army. Even large corporations have their little cultural eccentricities. I think that's part of what goes on in DC.
