The House Votes On Trade Deals

http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2011/roll771.xml

The amazing thing that happened in the Congressional House, is that 49 Democrats voted FOR outsourcing our American jobs (the ones in italics at the link above). Even more amazing is, one..just one, Republican voted no! This guy Walter Jones (with a bad hair piece) voted no. I want to meet this guy..I want to shake his hand and say sorry about calling his hair piece "bad". Let's have a beer.

I am glad to say my own Rep, Donna Edwards voted no.

US House Committe Costs

I started to look at these individually, but I really have to do a cost summary.

Committee on the Judiciary - $16,802,812.46
Committee on the Budget - $12,066,370
(Paul Ryan's plan, cut Medicare to help pay $12M for my Committee)
Committee on Ethics - $5,868,310.55
Committee on the Judiciary - $16,802,812.46
(where does the 46 cents come from?)
Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence - $10,307,500

There are SOO many more.. Just go here and do a search for all bills. The ones I covered above are way near the last page..

I am sure these costs are above the basic cost of Congress' budget request, they are separate bills..

I Finished The Dining Room!

Click the pics to enlarge them.

Finally, what a pain in the ass. I started by reupholstering the chairs (picking an aqua color by chance). Then I painted the walls to match, which happened to match the picture already in the room perfectly. Funny...
