Simpson, representing Eastern Idaho, voted to keep funding the police state.
Labrador, representing Western Idaho, voted to strip the funding.
Idaho was a wash.

The 2 marxist feminists representing NH split. 1 Aye and 1 Nay. So a wash here too.

Easy translation:
The votes to strip were fairly upright folks or very very careful about what they do.
The votes to continue were the ones the NSA/CIA had dirt on and didn't want to be "Eliot Spitzer'ed" or are in favor of State Omnipotence/NWO.
At least in my .02

No one knew until the day of... like the hour before.
I know the blaze, specifically Glenn Beck was quite upset that no one let him know in advance. It wouldn't have taken a lot of calls to change the result.

I think Amash wanted to limit the time TPTB would have to "influence" votes, so he kept it under wraps.

I am happy. Dave Loebsack, the complete idiot who represents me, got this one right. I honestly think this is the first time I have ever agreed with one of his votes. Of course, the 2 Iowa Republicans both went "no."
