Judiciary Committee Status

UPDATE: Perhaps someone is reading my blog after all . . . they've changed the graphic! The text now reads. "do you favor telecom amnesty?" where it used to read "oppose telecom amnesty".

Read it and weep folks:

My original comments (for posterity):
I actually find this graphic confusing and poorly worded. "Oppose Telecom Amnesty" suggests that a "yea" vote would support OPPOSITION to telecom amnesty; as in, "yea, I 'oppose telecom amnesty'." However, the "yeas" and "nays" are how the committee members would vote on the Senate bill CONFERRING amnesty, so a "yea" vote is actually an indication of support FOR telecom amnesty.
