House Passes Bailout

Finally the House of Representatives have come to their senses and passed the economic rescue measure. It is not perfect and it is understandable that their constituents are upset, but it is a bitter pill that we need to swallow.

The final vote was 263-171 meaning that around 30 members changed their votes from last week. Now if Bush will sign it we can start trying to pick up the pieces.
