Baldwin and Moore Continue Streak

Yesterday, the U.S. House of Representatives condemned MoveOn.org's "General Betray Us" ad by a vote of 341-79.

All 79 of the Nays came from Democrats.

WASHINGTON -- The House on Wednesday overwhelmingly voted to condemn the liberal advocacy group MoveOn.org for a recent advertisement attacking the top U.S. general in Iraq.

By a 341-79 vote, the House passed a resolution praising the patriotism Gen. David Petraeus, the commander of U.S. forces in Iraq, and condemning a MoveOn.org ad that referred to Petraeus as "General Betray Us."

...Wisconsin Rep. David Obey, a veteran Democrat, recounted how he left the Republican Party during the era of Sen. Joseph McCarthy, R-Wis., and said that lawmakers have an obligation to criticize their allies as well as their enemies when they go too far.

"I've got an obligation to be equally upset when that kind of juvenile debate emanates from the left," Obey said.

Not every Wisconsin congressman showed Obey's good judgment.

Wow. I'm always taken aback a bit when I say Obey showed good judgment; but I digress.

Here's the roll call.

For the second time in two days, Tammy Baldwin and Gwen Moore reveal what lockstep radical fringe Democrat hacks they are.

On Tuesday, both voted against a measure aimed to signal disapproval for Iranian president Mahmoud "we don't have homosexuals" Ahmadinejad.

On Wednesday, once again, Baldwin and Moore aligned themselves with the fringe radical Left by refusing to commend General David Petraeus and condemn MoveOn.org.
