Republican Hypocrisy Files (Proxy Voting Edition)

[PNWest]

Republicans sued over proxy voting in the pandemic. Now they're using it to speak at CPAC.

Nearly two dozen Republicans attending CPAC in Florida have designated a proxy to vote on their behalf, citing the "ongoing public health emergency."

From the article:
House Republicans were furious over the summer when the House made unprecedented changes allowing lawmakers to designate a proxy and vote on their behalf amid traveling concerns due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

They held news conferences. They lobbied their members against using the proxy function. House Republican leadership even led a lawsuit over the change, calling it unconstitutional.

But now it appears quite a few members of the GOP have changed their tune. And a host of Republicans designated proxies, each citing the "ongoing public health emergency," to travel to Florida for the Conservative Political Action Conference.

Ahhh, all the sane posters saw this coming 10 miles ago, the minute a dem is president, the crocodile tears flow - just look at the weak sauce posts on here for example. Deficits matter again, law and order matter again, ethics matter again and heaven forbid you tweet an insult - that just really hurts their feelings and is something they have never seen before............like I say HYPOCRISY X 1 TRILLION and they really don't care - they relish the word !

LONG LIVE THE Q-ANON Trump Party and prince Hawley

I am sure the cultists will turn those pockets inside out for him - as usual ! Hell they are going to prison for him so why not write that check NOW! What.............what was that you say............oh I see...........it is ANTIFA people going to prison and his followers were there for the riot insurrection BBQ - ok my bad !

Disgusting behavior/hypocrisy being shown, they appear to make no apologies for it either.

"Apparently hypocrisy has become a tenant of the Republican Party," Rep. Jim McGovern, D-Mass., wrote on Twitter, noting the months the GOP has complained about proxy voting. "Let me get this straight: these Members can’t vote in person because of the pandemic, but they manage to attend CPAC?...They were even maskless at this super spreader event! It’s outrageous."

Rep. Don Beyer, D-Va., agreed, writing on Twitter that these Republicans were skipping a vote on a $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief package to be at the annual conservative conference.

As a volunteer Deputy moderator you more than anyone who know not to attempt to derail threads. This thread is about the REPUBLICAN hypocrisy for whining about proxy voting and then using it themselves. It is not about Biden's airstrike.

As you have derailed the conversation already and brought up my world famous list (The LIST ) I'd like to point out just some of the good my list has done for PJ.

If you and look at the links that conservatives post these days you see far fewer from right wing KOOK sites. You especially have not been using these sites much any more. Now granted you HAVE been using KOOK sites like the Washington Examiner but you do it through MSN instead. Still the quality of your links has improved since I started my list. For this you obviously owe me quite a bit of gratitude.
