Voting now… I lost count, but sounds like a lot of aye’s. Should be close though…

EDIT: 74 Aye, 25 No. Passed.

wow i wonder how long CNBC is gonna report on the senate voting, after the vote has already taken place. lol 9:34 and they confirm it passed.

Thanks Harry Reid, saying shit like “a major insurance company that everyone knows the name of is on the verge of bankruptcy” is a real smart thing to say right now.

Only to turn around and have to admit there really isn’t any specific company you were talking about and it was just a scare tactic to push your bailout plan.

Don’t these assholes realize stupid statements like that can easily drive companies under in a volatile market?

sorry to double post, but it applies to your post. Everyone is using scare tactics.

Nice post. +++ Karma

Voting now. 98-38 for as of now :slight_smile:
