Murphy Won't Back Down

Yet another great story out of the Philadelphia area. Representative Patrick Murphy (who represents the district I grew up in) was the lone congressman who refused to vote in favor of a House resolution congratulating the New York Giants Super Bowl victory.

Murphy, a life-long Eagles fan who once worked at the Vet said he "couldn't in good conscience vote for the New York Giants. The only thing worse would have been a resolution honoring the Dallas Cowboys."

Yes. A politician who votes his true convictions and sticks by his word. No flip-flopping for Murphy.
