This is the SECOND list I have seen with Cantor’s name in the “YEA” column, so it must be true.

I had such high hopes for him. I am SO disappointed.

I will NEVER vote for him for ANYTHING again.

Gillibrand voted no? Bless her soul. Too bad she’s a pro baby killing Democrat (yeah, I know, redundant). My representative, McNulty, voted yes—either way, he’s not running for re-election. =)

Please!!!!

While our MN delegation voted mostly “YEA,” I am happy to see that my Rep., Michelle Bachmann, kept her word and stuck to her guns by voting against this monstrosity. On issue after issue, she has been on the right side.

FWIW, I called Ramstad’s office this week (he had originally voted NO), and the staffer I talked to told me that Ramstad’s staff were in agreement that he should vote no and try to find a better alternative than this bloated pork disaster.

I sent an email to Sen. Cornyn's telling him what I thought of this bill and that I will not be voting for him in Nov.

I vote straight Republican, but in Nov. I will vote whatever 3rd Party candidate is running for Senator instead.

I also sent an email to Pete Olson telling him that when he gets in office this type of activity will not be tolerated, I would have voted against him had he voted for this bill.

Kline also voted YES on the first bill.

I don’t know his reasons for voting for it - and whatever they are, I can’t accept them.

But his Democrat opponent wouldn’t an improvement at all.

Kline votes conservatively most of the time so I guess this is just one of those votes where we have to grimace and accept it.

But trust me, there won’t be too many more of those “times” in the future.

Nope, the folks at NRO figured that was the strategy:

1. look statesmanlike by ‘suspending the campaign’ (It at least got the ‘Call me if you need me’ gaffe from Obama.)
2. pass a ‘fix’ (I think that’s as in ‘dose of heroine’ rather than ‘repair’, but I digress)
3. attack with the ‘now that we’ve fixed it, let’s look at who’s to blame’.

I’ve got an idea: let’s flood the White House, Congress and the DOJ with e-mails demanding a special prosecutor to look into bogus accounting at Fannie and Freddie, and their lobbying and campaign contribution efforts that obviously biased the judgement of numerous Senators and Congressmen whose committees should have tightened regulations, but didn’t.

Raines, Johnson and Gorelick should get to do the perp walk just like Ken Lay!

Ok, I just called the local office of my Rep. Tim Murphy who voted no on the bailout to thank him, and the girl who answered the phone sounded REALLY unhappy, not at me just in general as she answered in a glum tone.

Wonder if the "no" voters are getting grief.

Might be an idea for anyone who's rep voted no and who are happy they voted no to call and thank them.

The note Shays will get soon:

Dear Rep Shays,

Congratulations on violating the will of people. Congratulations on screwing your constituents on this vital matter. Congratulations on dragging this country down to help out a few rich people and enacting socialism for the rich. Congratulations on making America more communistic than China, to allude to Jim Rogers, investor-who-knows-what-he-is-talking-about. Congratulations on perpetuating the system that created this problem and will create it again in the near future. Congratulations on being an arrogant elitist who thinks he knows better. Yes, congratulations.

At least then, they would have to answer to those who sent them....

This is to the thread in general: Vote all incumbents out.
Our enemies are entrenched and our allies are worthless. The only thing that can stop our approach to a socialist state is to remove all the people with access to the levers of power. This crew is not beholden to the voter at all.

Giffords (D AZ-8) voted no the first time. However, she stayed in the well in case a different vote would help the dems.

She says calls to her office against the bill have been running “100-0”.

She voted FOR it this time, switching her vote.

When Pelosi calls, the poodle jumps in her lap.

When voters call, she pisses on their floor.

Several in my family sent same to Cornyn and Olsen. Called Cornyn’s Houston office. Told her wasn’t voting for him and had cancelled the contribution I recently made via cc. She said JC is very conservative and voted yes because there were tax breaks in the bill and went on and on. I finally asked her if she had the read the bill and she said no. To which I responded and Senator Cornyn probably didn’t either, thanked her and hung up - hit the send on the fax and email and called the cc company.

Souder, Y.

Why am I not surprised that Souder voted for this?

What a jerk. Hoosiers don't want this bill.

Bachman is my rep. I’m happy she voted this way because I think she was listening to us. I’m against rewarding/covering these bad lending policies. However, it seems that it was necessary to pass and get our economy on surer footing. One thing I do know for sure, somebody must be lying to me when George W and Nancy Pelosi are on the same page!

And we are still in the tank. Lasted I checked -112. As soon as the money players (rich) buy up what they want then the market will recover. In the meantime this crooking market is just that, a rob peter to pay paul.

This morning, Hoekstra was being interviewed over the phone on WOOD AM 1300, Grand Rapids. He was still undecided, but said he was hearing from a lot of business owners claiming they were ready to start a lot of layoffs next week if the bailout wasn't passed today. I imagine that was probably a big factor in his yes vote...

I’d like to say thank you to Reps. Lynch and Delahunt of Massachusetts, and I’d like to say EFF YOU to the other eight pieces of sh*t from Massachusetts, especially Tierney, you d-bag, for changing your vote. Did someone give you a binky, scum?
