Buy or Sell - The worst Blue Dog is better than the best Deplorable [View all]

Today's vote makes me miss Heath Shuler. Although Shuler represents a very conservative area of North Carolina, he has a lifetime ACU rating of 28.5. That means he voted with us 71.5% of the time. He and others like him would have never voted for this piece of shit bill.
