Rep. Tim Johnson (R-Ill.) sole vote in House against congratulating Saints on Super Bowl win
Posted by Kevin Allman on Thu, Mar 4, 2010 at 9:14 PM
Today, Rep. Anh "Joseph" Cao (R-La.) introduced H.R. 1079 onto the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives -- a bill congratulating the New Orleans Saints on their Super Bowl victory. Sure, it ain't health care, but it's the kind of collegial feel-good resolution that allows Congresscritters to give each other the warm fuzzies. The bill passed with overwhelming bipartisan support by a vote of ... 375-1.
Yes, someone voted against congratulating the Saints for winning the Super Bowl. Who? This guy:
What a jackanapes you are, Rep. Tim V. Johnson of Illinois.
Here's the footage of Cao introducing the resolution on the House floor. Nice.
