-UPDATE-
HERE IS THE VOTE TALLY. The bill is labeled the “Paul Wellstone Mental Health and Addiction Equity Act of 2007”, because as is often the case, it was added to another bill already up for floor vote. It will now go back to the House, for a re-vote, in it’s modified form.
I can’t get the tally yet, but reports are that the Bailout bill just passed 74 in favor.

-UPDATE-
HERE IS THE HOUSE ROLL CALL TALLY.
There you have it for today:
I tried to get on line to the House site and the server is busy. It’s been that way all morning with various the Representative’s web sites, like Waxman, for example. When it cools down a little I’ll pull out the vote count, so we can all see who voted yea or nay. (more…)

It probably still won’t happen before Monday, but they are working on it. What do you know! McCain does appear to be operating to get the third choice; not Bush’s, and not Obama’s or the Democrats: (more…)

Economic Bailout
They said they would be working through the weekend. I checked today, Saturday, at 3:00 PM PT. “H.R.2638”, “Making appropriations for the Department of Homeland Security for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2008, and for other purposes”, had passed. No other Nay or Yey votes so far. (more…)

A funny thing happened on the way to the debate. Some guy name Paulson told some other folks that life as we know it was about to come to an end, and pretty soon, with no credit, we’d all be back to the barter system or the gold standard or some darn thing.
Folks was gonna be living hand to mouth and lucky to have a job, and forget livin’ to be old, ‘cause you know, we’d probably starve by then with no 401K. So Paulson told some people called senators all about this, and boy! Was there a stir! So them senators got together and figured a senator’s gotta do, what a senator’s gotta do! You know, the thing they got hired to do in the first place, cogitate and say Yea! Or Nay!
