Here's the GOP strategy on the bailout |
|
This huge pile of steaming crap has the GOP (and Democratic corporation f-ers like Rubin) written all over it. So how will the GOP turn it to their advantage?
1. Try to bum rush the Congress into following their "solution" to the crisis
2. Make their proposed solution so stupid, so utterly shameless and criminal, that not even the Democrats will go along with it.
3. Wait for the Democrats to propose a counter proposal, which also robs ordinary Americans to pay Wall Street fat cats but has some modicum of oversight
4. Gin up resentment by the American people for the bailout. Complain that the Democrats sold Joe and Jane six pack out to blue state richie riches
5. Win.
