Bush: "A financial panic could occur if action is not taken"

[DCBob]

A true leader would never say such a thing even if it were true. Pathetic politicizing of a crisis. Disgusting.

[Olney Blue]

1. I'm panicking at the thought of 4 more months of this crap.

[DCBob]

4. It appears the Bush/McCain message to the America people is to panic.

.. and why isn't Obama panicked as well?

[Cha]

6. chimp didn't ask Murikins to go

shopping?

[annabanana]

It's just a new flavor of "terra terra terra"

I guess they figured that "9/11 9/11 9/11" would be a harder sell this time..

2. "There is nothing to fear, but fear itself" -FDR

"FEAR! PANIC! FEAR!!! FEEEEEEAAAAAR!!!!!!!!"-Bush

[BlooInBloo]

3. And the only thing fear has to fear is Chuck Norris.

[Cha]

5. And, all dimson has ever done is cry WOLF!

They are using extortion to get that thing passed.

7. husband just talking to me about bush speech. said wrong keywords. afraid

might start soemthing with the banks, people pulling money out. he is really concerned.

[casus belli]

8. He's played this "we must act now" card before...

except now he's asking you straight up for a blank check. Even his own party isn't ready to buy this one. He's a terrible used car salesman, and this one is a lemon.

9. Bush, Paulsen and Bernanke knew about this financial mess for a year

Now at the 11th hour they are suddenly springing this crisis on the American people and holding a gun to our head demanding our money.

Bush and Cheney have pulled this act at least several times before...see the mushroom cloud, how about the yellow cake?
