I looked up the votes for the withdrawal resolution.

http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2005/roll608.xml
3 - AYEs, 403 - NAYs, 6 - answered "Present", 22 - Not Voting

AYES:

McKinney (D-GA)
Serrano (D-NY)
Wexler (D-FL)

answered "Present":

Capuano (D-MA)
Clay (D-MO)
Hinchey (D-NY)
McDermott (D-WA)
Nadler (D-NY)
Owens (D-NY)

Not Voting:

Beauprez (R-CO)

Camp (R-MI)
Cunningham (R-CA)
Davis (D-AL)
Flake (R-AZ)
Fossella (R-NY)
Gallegly (R-CA)
Hall (R-TX)
Jindal (R-LA)
Kind (D-WI)
LaHood (R-IL)
Miller, Gary (R-CA)
Moran (R-KS)
Northup (R-KY)
Paul (R-TX)
Peterson (R-PA)
Shadegg (R-AZ)

As a reminder, I also saved the link to the House votes on the authorization to use force in Iraq. Seems strange that the same people who voted against that wouldn't vote in favor of withdrawing the troops now.

2002 resolution to use force in Iraq:
http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2002/roll455.xml
passed 296 to 133 (81 Democrats voted YEA)
6 Republicans, 126 Democrats and 1 Independent voted NAY;
2 Republicans and 1 Democrat did not vote.

Thanks - all six of the "present" voters we know actually wanted to vote yes. But didn't have the gumption to do so.
