Watching Bailout ote as I write and as of now, despite their saying "it's over" I see that it's 226 NAY and 207 YAY -- so far atta constituents...tos and fingers crossed....Holy Moly -- dare to dream?
141 dems yay 94 nay
66 reps yay 132 nay
Being told that they can hold it open intefinitely trying to convince people to change to pass it.
218 yay is the "magic number". Stay strong people. Cell Phones are not supposed to be on the floor...but they have...sign your petitions now -- call, phone, write email to your constituency ASAP if you don't want them to "bailout".
Gordy said that dow is down 600 pts. to 749 and STABILIZING, not even top 10% loss to impact money market or 401k!!! CNN is doing a good job. But are they still crying wolf about "main street" v. "wall street" or not? Off to MD appt -- I'll keep you posted!
Power to the people? Dare to dream?
Peace!
## PS Gavel went down as question was asked....curiouser and curiouser...no wonder politics is coo-coo
AP says bill rejected. So they now have to start all over with ammendments if they wanat to. I never thought I'd say thank you republicans...I can't find the votes by my state yet...I hope they listened to us? Can Democracy be working for us? Kewl beanz. Happy New Year!
