Wayback machine: Party leaders and errant Reps

A poster at Free Republic reminds us how the Dems who are calling for Hastert's remova,l and who would certainly hold key slots if the Dems won Congress themselves, voted when asked to censure Congressman Studds for having an affair with an underage page:

 

July 20, 1983, roll call vote 259, House of Representatives, Motion to Censure Congressman Gerry Studds (D—MA) — Following future Dem House Committee Chairs voting "no":  Conyers, Frank, Lantos, Miller, Obey, Rahall, and Waxman.

 

Leadership voting "no": Hoyer

 

Chair of DSCC, then House member, Schumer "no" (voted instead for a watered down reprimand).
