Sometimes peculiar intersections can be interesting. Here are the American Conservative Union ratings of the 12 Republicans who voted against H J RES 10 (“Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States authorizing the Congress to prohibit the physical desecration of the flag of the United States”):
Name | Lifetime score |
Shadegg | 98 |
Flake | 93 |
Dreir | 92 |
Hoekstra | 90 |
Paul | 83 |
Petri | 77 |
Kolbe | 74 |
Ehlers | 71 |
Gilchrest | 64 |
Shays | 48 |
Leach | 43 |
Schwarz | * |
The only note I would make is that Ron Paul, TX, votes against basically everything (he’s an anti-federal paleolibertarian). For reference, Nancy Pelosi has a lifetime score of 3 and Tom Delay a 96. Posted by razib at 02:05 PM
