Sensenbrenner caves on budget

F. Jim's voting for the Robin Hood in reverse budget, come hell or high water, he makes clear in a new release. Most likely explanation is that he didn't really care about Arctic drilling, but was objecting on some technical grounds. He never said he didn't support drilling, only that it shouldn't be in the budget bill. But when the GOP calls in the chits, he antes up.

Hard to understand that he doesn't want to take credit for doing anything good for the environment; afraid it will ruin his image, perhaps? He was one of 22 GOPpers who signed the letter that helped get Arctic drilling out of the bill.
