I've been watching the House Rules Committee meeting, and am now listening to Rep Kaptur ... all on CSPAN ... and, I gotta tell you folks, I see very little indication that "government by Dow" is having much impact on many Members in the House.

In fact, that 'pork' that got dumped into the Senate bill is providing more than a little cover for some whom voted yes in the House on the Monday.

The fact that 'regular order' is not being followed.

So, I suggest that we are in for more debate and Rep Kaptur is now definitely calling out the Treasury on the amount of our debt financed by foreign banks, particularly China and the mega-losses some of their banks have experienced because of the crash of Lehman.

Much more exciting and important to the future of America than watching Palin be dumb.

Peace,
Bob
