			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From reading the logs, I know that quite a number of you have visited herewanting to find out how Peter Roskam voted last Tuesday in the house resolution to rebuke Rep. Joe Wilson of South Carolina for shouting out &#8220;You lie!&#8221; during the President&#8217;s address on healthcare before a joint session of Congress.</p>
<p>The House voted to adopt the <a href="http://majorityleader.gov/docUploads/HoyerPrivelegedResolution091509.pdf">resolution</a> by a margin of 240-179.  Peter Roskam voted &#8220;No&#8221;. The resolution was pretty simple and benign:</p>
<blockquote><p>Whereas the conduct of the Representative from South Carolina was a breach of decorum and degraded the proceedingsf the joint session, to the discredit of the House: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives disapproves of the behavior of the Representative from South Whereas the conduct of the Representative from South Carolina was a breach of decorum and degraded the proceedings of the joint session, to the discredit of the House: Now, therefore, be it  Resolved, That the House of Representatives disapproves of the behavior of the Representative from South Carolina, Mr. Wilson, during the joint session of Congress held on September 9, 2009.</p></blockquote>
<p>Roskam&#8217;s refusal to vote in favor demonstrates how disingenuous were his remarks about the outburst after the speech and signals Roskam&#8217;s tacit endorsement of all of the hate and ugliness and nonsense being peddled by those who oppose the President&#8217;s efforts to make decent healthcare available to all Americans:</p>
