Paul or any of the other "no" votes because they aren't from AZ.<br /><br />As for your point from your first paragraph, well, that was kind of my point too.<br /><br />Only I was a little less tactful. :)<br /><br />Of course, I could have pointed out that Flake, Shadegg, et. al. have no problems with corporate welfare programs.
