Speaking of Philly...Patrick Murphy Ain't Voting for No Giants Resolution
This is Patrick Murphy. He is a congressman from Philadelphia, PA. We've never met him, nor heard of him, prior to today. But we like him already.
From the fine folks at Philadelphia Will Do:
On Wednesday, the House passed a resolution congratulating the New York Giants on winning this year’s Super Bowl “and completing one of the most remarkable postseason runs in professional sports history.” The resolution passed by a vote of 412 to 1.
Murphy, a diehard Eagles fan who worked at Veterans Stadium as a security guard when he was 16, was the only House member to vote against it. “As a former 700-level security guard and lifelong Eagles fan, I couldn’t, in good conscience, vote for the New York Giants,” Murphy said Thursday. “The only thing worse would have been a resolution honoring the Dallas Cowboys.”
Phenomenal work, Mr. Murphy.

Well done.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I could not be prouder of my city and the fact that our Congressman will stand up to 412 other members to support his home team. Thank you!

Man, that is great. Though I agree that this a is a gross waist of tax payer dollars
