"If nothing else, we have to give Rep. Greg Walden points for consistency  -  he&amp;apos;s consistently against legislation that would help ordinary Americans.\nWalden kept his record intact last week by being one of the 215 members of the House  -  including 39 Democrats and all but one of the 177 Republicans  -  to vote against the health care reform bill. (Thankfully, none of those 39 Democrats were from Oregon.)\n\"The country cannot afford a new $1.3 trillion government program that creates 111 new bureaucracies, especially when nationwide unemployment is at its highest level in 26 years,\" Walden said after his vote. \"Just this year, Washington, D.C. has launched unprecedented national takeovers of the auto industry, the energy industry, and now the healthcare of every American.\"\nFirst, on the cost issue: Walden, like all Republicans, pretends to be terrified by the cost of health care reform while ignoring the crippling costs of the present unreformed system."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
