I'm way too lazy to do that.

80 in the Senate

I would guess about the same in the House.

Same here!  If those lazy conservatives can't include a calculator on their site, I'll just assume I totally disagree with them.

I probably completely agree with the ACLU however.

Senate only:
20 for the ACU, agreeing on 2, 8, 10, 13, and 16 and abstaining on 3 and 5.
78 for the ALCU, disagreeing on 1 and 6

I agree with the ACLU only on oposing the new FCC rules.  everything else, I disagreed.

I must admit I'm a little surprised.  There are a couple I'm undecided about, but the main one I know I'm in total disagreement with the ACLU on is Reporting on Guantanamo Bay Detainees.  I also disagree with the ACLU's position on #5, not because I want to see such an amendment pass, as I do not, but because forcing a vote is the proper thing to do. 

I had predicted we'd be on different sides on number 2.

Not even travel to Cuba?  That's not a very business-friendly attitude.  Free exchange of ideas and all that.  What has happened to the grand ole party?

Well...there are 13 bills where I would have voted against ACU, 6 bills where I would have more likely than not voted against ACU but would have to study the matter and the bill's fine print to arrive at a decision, one where I would have more likely than not voted with ACU but see above, two where I would have voted with ACU, and two that I can't make out heads or tails on what they are actually saying.

Good for business, bad for Colombian civilians.

Any capital that flows to Cuba could well end up in the hands of FARC.  Sort of like sanctions apparently crippled Saddam's WMD, sanctions on Cuba dramatically reduce the capital available to Cuba to fund groups like FARC.
