Foster Casts Deciding Ethics Vote

This is why we work our asses off to elect Democrats:

Bill Foster won his election on Saturday. He was sworn in on Tuesday. Hours later, an ethics bill came up for a vote.

The bill, pushed aggressively by Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), creates an independent, outside panel to investigate ethics complaints against House members. The House approved it last night, 229-182, with most Democrats in favor and most Republicans opposed. That margin is deceptive: Before final passage, the bill first had to clear a much closer procedural vote, which gave House members a chance to kill the idea without, technically, voting against it.

The bill survived that test by a single vote, with Foster voting in favor.

Do you think Jim Oberweis, a guy who violated election laws on the way to losing to Foster, would have cast the deciding vote for increased scrutiny on ethics?
