Bailing Out On Bailouts

Regardless of where you stand on bailing out large corporations to save the economy (I'm a bit conflicted myself, and the TV doesn't have much objective analysis on the subject)-- but it does seem a bit hypocritical to vote for Wall St.'s $700 billion and then vote against $14 billion to save auto companies/jobs. Here's the list of senators who fall into that category:

Bob Bennett, R-UT
Richard Burr, R-NC
Saxby Chambliss, R-GA
Tom Coburn, R-OK
Norm Coleman, R-MN
Bob Corker, R-TN
John Ensign, R-NV
Chuck Grassley, R-IA
Judd Gregg, R-NH
Orrin Hatch, R-UT
Kay Bailey Hutchison, R-TX
Johnny Isakson, R-GA
John Kyl, R-AZ
Mel Martinez, R-FL
John McCain, R-AZ
Mitch McConnell, R-KY
Lisa Murkowski, R-AK
John Thune, R-SD
