I can appreciate this....
Only four Reps attained a perfect voting record. These guys voted 1214 times, never missing a vote in two years. Virginia's own Bob Goodlatte is one of those.
Congressman's perfect voting record
Virginia Congressman Bob Goodlatte, R-Roanoke, is rightly perceived as a rubber stamp for President Bush. But the Shenandoah congressman earns our respect after The Washington Post found this week that he was one of only four members in the U.S. House of Representatives to have a perfect voting record for the 109th Congress. That means Goodlatte was present for all 1,214 votes recorded over the past two years. Only Reps. John Kline, R-Minn.; Frank Upton, R-Mich.; and Dale Kildee, D-Mich., can make the same claim.
It helps that Goodlatte seldom faces real opposition in the conservative Shenandoah Valley and doesn't have to spend much time fundraising and campaigning for re-election. The cash and the votes just flow right in.
Notice they had to throw in the rubber stamp line. The bottom line is these men deserve our applause for their rare work ethic. Spark it Up HQ salutes them.
