Pete Stark not Censured

"By 196 to 173, the House voted to table a resolution to censure Mr. Stark, who is chairman of the Ways and Means Subcommittee on Health, for what he said as the House sustained President Bush.s veto of a bill to expand a children.s health insurance program.

"You don't have money to fund the war or children," Mr. Stark told Republicans last week. "But you.re going to spend it to blow up innocent people, if we can get enough kids to grow old enough for you to send to Iraq to get their heads blown off for the president's amusement."

Interesting remarks. I wish more members of the House were as angry as Mr. Stark. They should be.
