this all seems so eerily similar. bush and his cronies playing the fear card, rushing everyone to make a decision, saying how desperately we need to authorize the bailout immediately or the worst thing you can imagine will happen!!!!1! I can see the 2012 or 2016 presidential candidates stumping on how they did or didnt vote for the 08 bailout proposal.

am i the only one?

2. No. I knew there were no WMD and I know this crisis is very real

I recognize the similarities in timing and process, but there are differences.

Careful reading of the newspaper told us Iraq was a fraud, and that this is very real.

4. Here, perception matters....
The perceived indifference of congressional republicans will cause the market to think there will be no intervention in the market and the whole thing will hit the dumper...

5. I no longer buy that there is a crisis
It's not real. It's an effort to rob the treasury.

No need for a bail out.
