It would be appropriate to let him know how much we appreciate his vote. Not for the value of the vote, but because he gave the Dhims cover to say that it was "bipartisan."

[Cringing Negativism Network]

AKA Cao “Dede”...

[Nateman]

Deport the SOB back. He learned NOTHING!

[ari-freedom]

I remember him. He was the one who defeated William jefferson. very disappointing...

[buccaneer81]

Just trying to save his own sorry ass in his 80% minority district.

[gaijin]

Doesn’t belong there. And doesn’t belong HERE, come to think of it...

[K-oneTexas]

He can always say that the language of the bill was confusing and he though a ‘For’ vote was really and ‘Against’ vote.

Then again he could use the tried and true, ‘I voted for it before I voted against it.’ The righteous Congressional way.

[Dysart]

Ciao, Cao.

[wilco200]

He’s the least of our problems. Don;t waste time with him. The fight is now in the Senate

[nutmeg]

I remember him. He was the one who defeated William jefferson. very disappointing...

I know... I was cheering him onto victory back during that election.

Cao's YEA vote for PelosiCare is just unconscionable. It was my understanding that the 177 Republicans were standing strong and united AGAINST PelosiCare.

[Volunteer]

Thanks REP. Cao.... I didn’t need my rights any way. Obama knows what is best for me.

[Salvation]

The Cao is out of there!

[Greg123456]

He thinks he has to. He’s in a highly rat district formerly held by the corrupt William Jefferson. Most voters in his district would never vote for him again unless he gives them a few bones to chew on.

[Blogger]

I won’t be wasting time or money. At the right time, I’ll send my money in to defeat the treasonous jerk.

[Dan Nunn]

Agreed. This is a diversion from what really matters.

[Blogger]

Bad bone to pick. He will be gone.

[bjcintennessee]

I just sent this traitor the following email (though it might get kicked since I'm not in his state):

I live in Tennessee. Although I am among your constituents, your vote for the government take-over of my health care is an abomination.

When you next run for office, I will do everything in my power to support your opponent, including campaign contributions and helping in any way to compaign against you.

And I am NOT alone!

[cmj328]

Cao's YEA vote for PelosiCare is just unconscionable.

It certainly wasn't courageous. He waited until 218 Democrats voted YEA before pressing the button.

[markomalley]

Another way to let him know your “appreciation” is via Twitter: @anhjosephCao

[ConservativeMan55]

bttt

[conservativeinferno]

It should not matter if you are not in his district b/c his vote has nation-wide ramifications.

[bjcintennessee]

aaaargh!! typo in my email -- Although I am not among your constituents,.....

Ok. Made a fool of myself, so I'll just send him another one!

[NotSoModerate]

His vote didn’t matter.

[cdefreese]

It certainly wasn't courageous. He waited until 218 Democrats voted YEA before pressing the button.

Yeah, but he may have also saved his job with a vote that didn't change the outcome one bit.

[markomalley]

His vote didn’t matter.

Bull. The bill now has "bipartisan" support.

[TornadoAlley3]

Cao replaced William Jefferson, money in freezer, going to jail for 30 years Democrat,Cao is a fool, he was not going to win reelection anyway, that district wants a black male D representing them.

[tenthirteen]

Ilya iacta est. Just ask Caesar.

[JustaDumbBlonde]

"Cao's YEA vote for PelosiCare is just unconscionable."

What if the vast majority of the people in his district wanted him to vote 'yes'? Knowing that district, I'd say that is a pretty safe assumption.

[mwl8787]

We got 39 they got one. Screw the spin.

Steele had a good line - they clapped themselves into defeat next year.

[null and void]

Aww did someone gore your sacred Cao?

[smoothsailing]

Mad Cao Disease

[darkangel82]

*groan*

[ToTheMax]

If the man had any integrity, he would have voted against the bill and told his constituents why it was bad for them.

Very disappointed in Cao. He is No. 10. Time to Didi mao out of politics.

[null and void]

I try...

[Kakaze]

Worthless, son of a gun.

I will wait a day before I email him and call him, piece of crap.

[USAFJeeper]

Don’t be foolish. As a prior resident of New Orleans, I can tell you he was “allowed” to vote that way once the dims had the votes needed +1, if it had been a close vote he would not have been allowed to be the vote to give them victory.

Repub leadership held him back until his vote was no longer needed. This gives him cover next year when he needs to get reelected in a largely minority city.

[LukeL]

Well his wikipedia page has been edited at least 20 times in the past 20 minutes.

[stevie_d_64]

Maybe he should just go ahead and start packing...

Somebody go check his freezer!!!

[Cringing Negativism Network]

Exactly.

And that’s EXACTLY what will be reported.

Because of one suck-up traitor.

[Kakaze]

His vote didn’t matter

The hell it did not matter he gave Pelosi cover...you think about that!

[PzLdr]

The difference between the Dims and the GOP. The Dims are afraid to cross their leadership. Not the ‘Pubbies. I want to see what the GOP does to “Marvin the ARVN” because he gave Il Douche his fig leaf. My bet. Nothing.

[PzLdr]

How now, Yellow Cao...

[Cringing Negativism Network]

Republicans have leadership?

Really?

Who?...

[unixfox]

Don;t waste time with him. The fight is now in the Senate

Forget that too. It's time to take to the streets, armed if necessary.

[rogator]

“Very disappointed in Cao. He is No. 10. Time to Didi mao out of politics.”

He also be dinky dau.

[fantom]

Calling Mr Newt . Your friend Anh is on the love line .

[UglyinLA]

Caoward

[MitchellC]

Just trying to save his own sorry ass in his 80% minority district.

Uh, no. He's just trying to land a gig after he inevitably loses that seat, and was probably promised one by Obama (who has been courting him for all sorts of things since he won the seat).

I'll be surprised if he even tries to run again, as an R or a D - no way would he win a primary dominated by black voters.

[EDINVA]

“Treason” is a little over the top, don’t you think?

Note a few things:
1. He voted the wishes of his constituents, not his party leaaders. Have we not been bitching since last summer about the Congressmen who don’t vote the way their constituents want as opposed to the Dem leadership ?

2. 39 Dems voted against the bill. Are they traitors, too?

3. Cho’s vote was at the last second, when the Dems already had their votes, so it was ok’s by the R leadership who understood his position vis a vis his constituents.

A House vote is only one step. It will be harder to pass in the Senate. Everyone ought to take a deep breath.
