To All North Carolinians: Both Of Your Senators Voted Against $213 Million In Up-Armored Humvees...
Liddy Dole and Richard Burr both voted against an amendment that provided for an additional $213 million worth of up-armored humvees for the Army.
The amendment, introduced by Sen. Evan Bayh (D-IN) and Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA) passed on 61-39 vote which, in today's terms, can be considered a strongly bipartisan effort.
It's just too bad that both of our Senators weren't interested in addressing a glaring need expressed by the Army itself...
