10 House Republicans for arbitrary salary control; Minority Whip Cantor votes “presen
10 House Republicans for arbitrary salary control; Minority Whip Cantor votes “present” (!)

Scroll for updates…
85 House Republicans, I shall remind you again, voted for the AIG/CYA confiscatory bonus tax.
Some of them have learned their lesson, but not all.
Today, 10 Republicans joined the Grabby Hands Democrats in passing the new “Pay for Performance Act” — to curb “excessive” employee pay at financial firms that receive government bailout funds, “a measure that could supplant [the] earlier effort to heavily tax executive bonuses.” The bill passed 247-171.
Here are the 10 House Republicans who think it is government’s job to determine what “excessive” pay is in every workplace except their own (full roll call vote here):
Bilirakis
Brown-Waite, Ginny
Cao
Diaz-Balart, L.
Diaz-Balart, M.
Duncan
Jones
McHugh
Rohrabacher
Ros-Lehtinen
At least this bonus-taxing bunch of appalling GOP turncoats is consistent in supporting radical government meddling.
Oh, and look who voted “present:”
Cantor
!!!!

Just another example of why the Republicans need to clean house and get rid of RINOs.

They say they are following the faith but it looks more like "well we will call ourselves this or that but we realy want to be something else"
It is more like people joining a church then deciding they do not like the faith so they change it. How about a Muslim join a Christian Church then wants that Church to adhere to his or her version of what should be?
The same applies to those in politics who join a party but spend their time advocating things from the other party.
Liberals want to destroy the country

Canter needs to drop out of his leadership position or stand up. This is far from over, can he really be effective only voting "present"?
