“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

With republicans like these, who needs democrats?

Here is the bill, HR 1664, that passed the House on Tuesday, which may result in some skeevy, DC bureaucrat determining how much money is reasonable for you to make as a private-sector worker...

To amend the executive compensation provisions of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 to prohibit unreasonable and excessive compensation and compensation not based on performance standards.

And here are the 10 turncoat House republicans who voted for it...

Republicans Voting 'Aye'

Rep. Gus Bilirakis [R, FL-9]
Rep. Virginia Brown-Waite [R, FL-5]
Rep. Anh Cao [R, LA-2]
Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart [R, FL-21]
Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart [R, FL-25]
Rep. John Duncan [R, TN-2]
Rep. Walter Jones [R, NC-3]
Rep. John McHugh [R, NY-23]
Rep. Dana Rohrabacher [R, CA-46]
Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen [R, FL-18]


If you are represented by one of these miserable, craven creatures, make them pay in their next election by kicking the bums out of office.
