THE SENATORS THAT VOTED FOR MOVEON.ORG OVER GENERAL PETRAEUS
U.S. Senate Roll Call Votes 110th Congress - 1st Session as compiled through Senate LIS by the Senate Bill Clerk under the direction of the Secretary of the Senate Vote Summary: Question: On the Amendment (Cornyn Amdt. No. 2934 ) Vote Number: 344 Amendment Number: S.Amdt. 2934 to S.Amdt. 2011 to H.R. 1585 (National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008) Statement of Purpose: To express the sense of the Senate that General David H. Petraeus, Commanding General, Multi-National Force-Iraq, deserves the full support of the Senate and strongly condemn personal attacks on the honor and integrity of General Petraeus and all members of the United States Armed Forces. Vote Counts: YEAS: 72 NAYS: 25 NOT VOTING: 3 Here is a list of the 25 Senators that voted "Nay." In other words, they voted that it was o.k. for MoveOn.org to attack one of our Generals in a time of war. These 25 Senators have more respect for a liberal website, than they do for one of our own brave military leaders. It's pretty sad and pathetic if you ask me. - Trent Akaka (D-HI)
