Senate Votes to Bailout Wallstreet

The senate voted to pass their version of the $700 billion bailout of the rich by the poor.  I wasn’t suprised to find that Lindsey Graham voted for it.  It is great to see that Jim DeMint is one South Carolina senator with some economic sense.  You can see how your senator voted here.

Now would be a good time to contact your congressman again to make sure that they don’t pass the revised version on Friday.  Congress.org makes it easy to tell your congressman what you think.
