Since the vote was passed without objection and there was no
recorded vote, you know that how? If he had objected, under House rules,
they would have then taken an actual vote. The no recorded vote was the
reason that I was interested in the committee votes to see how he voted
there. Did you have any luck finding those.

You're asking me how, and yet _you_ claim he voted for it. LOL, it isn't
luck. Hint: Try Google Books.
I said the vote was by acclimation in the House. He did not vote
against since no one did. I also stated originally, since lost, that I
was interested in knowing how he voted in the Committee since that was
where a vote would have been recorded.



Let's take the hypothetical road for which you want to walk. _If_ Franks
did vote for it, you want Bush off the hook. So, you must be willing to let
any Democratic POTUS off the hook, if one Republican voted their way. Is
this really the road you want to travel? I didn't think so!
I don';t want Bush off the hook. I just want the Dems to take their
share of the blame. They went along with it wholeheartedly thinking it
was a good thing because they did not object to the votes by acclamation
in both Houses. It is disingenuous at best to suggest that this was
anything other than a bipartisan cluster****, assuming it really is the
source of all Evil.


Democrats do things I don't exactly agree with, but we'll save those for
the political forums. Think the Home Repair readers are about fed up with
our nonsense.
We'll have to agree that you are completely and utterly wrong... er
I mean agree to disagree (G&D&R).
