Darin LaHood

Hi Illinois folks.

I was just noticing that Darin LaHood voted against the FEMA resolution along with some of the craziest of the crazies (MTG, Good, Gozar, Jordan, Etc). I then looked him up and he votes pretty crazy as a general rule.

I was wondering where this all came from, as I recall his father Ray LaHood always seemed sane, and even ended up in the Obama cabinet as a token moderate GOPer.

Any thoughts? I gues there truly are no moderates left in the Republican Party.

Thank you.

The Party has been taken over by "The Conservative Movement" and the conservative movement has been taken over by con artists, crooks, crazies, and traitors.
