JD keeps impressing people...

...of course, it's not always a *good* impression. :))

Yesterday, he was named as one of the "25 Most Corrupt" members of Congress, and today he's named as part of Congress' "Dirty Dozen."

From the League of Conservation Voters:

LCVAF Names Rep. J.D. Hayworth to 2006 “Dirty Dozen” List
“Representative J.D. Hayworth apparently believes that oil companies already making record profits are in need of a tax break, instead of investing those resources in putting America on the right path towards a clean energy future.

{snip}

He is clearly a friend of Big Oil, and they have rewarded him in return: Rep. Hayworth has taken over $160,000 from the oil and gas industry.

The LCV's scorecard for the rest of the Arizona delegation, for the first session of the 109th Congress (2005):

Vote Scorecard: 109th, 1st session Search Results
Scores for Arizona Sorted by Last Name


Senate:

Jon Kyl (REP) 5%
John McCain (REP) 45%

House of Representatives

Jeff Flake (REP) AZ-6 17%
Trent Franks (REP) AZ-2 6%
Raul Grijalva (DEM) AZ-7 94%
J.D. Hayworth (REP) AZ-5 6%
Jim Kolbe (REP) AZ-8 6%
Ed Pastor (DEM) AZ-4 94%
Rick Renzi (REP) AZ-1 0%
John Shadegg (REP) AZ-3 6%

Wonder when the Republicans are going to purge those slackers, John McCain and Jeff Flake?

Just out of curiousity, I looked up Harry Mitchell's 2005 legislative scorecard from the AZLCV.

100%.

Is it any surprise that the LCV has endorsed Harry Mitchell?
