    I am surprised at Ron Paul, but not the rest of them. Joe Barton is a bought-and-paid-for scumbag second only to Cornyn for always voting the wrong way, no matter what the issue.

    That claim is pure baloney. They voted against it because these local animal cruelty cases should be prosecuted at the state and local level where it is already a felony in Texas.
    Makes sense.
    Feds don’t deport illegal immigrants until sixth time caught; Social Security ID theft rarely prosecuted, not enough resources for internatiional drug trafficking.
    Feds should focus on major crimes.
