ON BAILOUT: Look at how war turned out: We gave Bush power, and he abused it. We gave him money,
and he put it in the pocket of his friends, and then said he needed more.

Not one single extra power and not one thin dime.

Tell the Bushies to shut the fuck up and try not to mess anything else up until they leave.

1. Do you know what's sad?
Our entire country was founded on the bedrock concept that if you give people power without accountability, they will abuse it. Always.

We all learn this basic constitutional principle in fucking grade school. But we have now failed abjectly to apply it to the real world for at least the last 8 years.
