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…)

Cadbury: Tests find chemical; it recalls Chinese-made chocolate
Updated 2h 51m ago
HONG KONG (AP) — A spokesman for British chocolate maker Cadbury said Monday that preliminary tests have found the industrial chemical melamine in its Chinese-made chocolates. The company had earlier Monday ordered a recall, the latest foreign company affected by China’s tainted milk scandal. The spokesman said it is too early to say how much melamine is in the chocolates. He declined to give his name because of company policy.

If you want to know where the bets are on the presidential campaign, just follow the red “Economist Magazine” popunders this season. Darn right annoying.

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…)

Remember Rwanda?
That small African country from whence recent one of our last genocide movies sprung? The object of Clintonian apologies, and current service? At a population of now, around 70% women, and a country with many struggles still ahead, Rwanda has achieved this:

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!
