Bad bill beaten, no thanks to Badger Rs

With the help of 22 Republicans -- none of them from Wisconsin, of course - the House has defeated, on a 229-204 vote, an appropriations bill that would have cut education spending and slashed health care programs. It was a major defeat for the GOP, who had their priorities screwed on wrong. Dems said the bill hurt some of the nation's neediest people. WashPost story.
But Mark Green, Paul Ryan, F. Jim Sensenbrenner and Tom Petri voted the party line.
