Mega Vote-less.

I subscribe to MegaVote.  Its a periodical email that tells you about recent and upcoming bills in congress.  It also details the yeas, nays and number of slackers who couldn't even get their sorry butts to work and vote.  It also tells you which way your representative voted on each time.  Pretty neat if you like to keep tabs on what's going on but can't be bothered to pick up a newspaper.  So back when I lived in MD's 8th district (the fightin' 8th) my update would have looked like this:

Recent Senate Votes
Transportation/HUD Appropriations Act, FY2008 - Vote Passed (88-7, 5 Not Voting) The Senate voted to provide $104.6 billion to fund programs at the Departments of Transportation and Housing and Urban Development. Sen. Barbara Mikulski voted YES......send e-mail or see bio Sen. Benjamin Cardin voted YES......send e-mail or see bio

See?  Wouldn't that make you feel informed and enfranchised?  Yeah, well I just took a look at my new MegaVote and here's what I found:

That's all, cause I'm not a US citizen any more, I just live in the freaking capital city.  Damn you Americans and your smug elitist representative government.
Although, I do see in the upcoming bills section: "Senate: District of Columbia House Voting Rights Act of 2007"  Damn that's exciting.  Maybe soon I'll have as much non-Senatorial representation as those SOBs in Wyoming.
