It is exciting that for today the bailout was defeated in the house. The first thing I wanted to know was who voted for it – so that we can get rid of them. I was disappointed but not suprised to learn that Bob Inglis voted for it. According to the Greenville News the South Carolina vote was 5 for the bailout and 1 against. Good to see that Gresham Barrett did the right thing.
Update: Gresham Barrett changed his vote the second time to vote yea a few days later.
Our local congressman voted against it. King of IA. (there are two kings so make sure you get the right one)
Good to hear. I haven’t been to impressed with Inglis for a while now. Seems to think the government knows best in too many areas. Unfortunately there is no legitimate opposition to him worth voting for at the moment.
