J.D. Hayworth finally makes the Honor Roll

This may be the best report card Representative J.D. Hayworth has ever received. Too bad it is from the extremist religious right group Family Research Council (FRC), and not his constituents. The FRC is a Christian conservative non-profit think tank and lobbying organization in Washington DC started by James Dobson of Focus on the Family whose main concerns have absolutely nothing to do with the everyday concerns of the average Arizonan. But hey let’s look at the bright side, at least J.D. is striving to serve and make somebody happy, even if it is not the people of Arizona.

From the FRC website:

Vote Scorecard

Dear Voter and Friend of the Family:

Family Research Council presents our Vote Scorecard for the First Session of the 109th Congress. This Scorecard contains a compilation of significant votes representing a cross section of issues affecting the family. These recorded votes occurred in the U.S. House of Representatives during the First Session of the 109th Congress.

This scorecard shows how your elected officials voted on some of the critical issues involving the family. It is important to remember, however, that the votes you see here are only a few of the hundreds of recorded votes Members of Congress took in 2005. We have singled out for inclusion the most clear-cut, pro-family votes that came before Congress.

Sick of politicians who care more about James Dobson, Pat Robertson, and Jerry Falwell's agendas than yours?

Vote for Harry Mitchell.
