1. Vote totals from Wikipedia

By party and region
Note: "Southern", as used in this section, refers to members of Congress from the eleven states that made up the Confederate States of America in the American Civil War. "Northern" refers to members from the other 39 states, regardless of the geographic location of those states.

The original House version:

Southern Democrats: 7-87 (7%-93%)
Southern Republicans: 0-10 (0%-100%)
Northern Democrats: 145-9 (94%-6%)
Northern Republicans: 138-24 (85%-15%)
The Senate version:

Southern Democrats: 1-20 (5%-95%) (only Senator Ralph Yarborough of Texas voted in favor)
Southern Republicans: 0-1 (0%-100%) (this was Senator John Tower of Texas)
Northern Democrats: 45-1 (98%-2%) (only Senator Robert Byrd of West Virginia opposed the measure)

2. The South has risen again.

And it's just as disgusting and ugly the second time around.

3. Total Embarrassment

North Carolina is my home state. Virginia Foxx is a total and complete embarrassment!

We're a blue state now. Foxx is an ugly remnant of the past.

6. Sickening

Foxx, through her hate filled lies (4weeks ago- "HC
reform is more dangerous than terrorism)has proven to our
country that these revisionists are lunatics. She calls
Democrats "revisionists", when they tell the obvious
truth. Carl Rove lives.. America is dying because of the greed
they represent. If we prosecuted war crimes, civility would
return. If we don't, civil war may return. These lunatics have
to be shown the consequences of breaking our laws and the
golden rule.

4. I hope you told them you were "fox propaganda network" calling....???

...cause if not, these chicken-hawk, lying sons of bitches would never even think of returning a call.

Liars...stinking, f*cking liars, all of them!
