LOL!!!: FromThe 08 Repub Party Platform: "WE DO NOT SUPPORT GOV BAILOUTS OF PRIVATE INSTITUTIONS"
Edited on Tue Sep-23-08 03:34 PM by kpete
"We do not support government bailouts of private institutions. Government interference in the markets exacerbates problems in the marketplace and causes the free market to take longer to correct itself."

-- The 2008 Republican Party Platform, adopted earlier this month.

19. Obama should jump on this: yet ANOTHER example of republicon hypocrisy
You can always depend on republicons to either lie, or to pontificate, and then do the opposite of what they preach.

Republicons = freaking pack of Pharisees.

25. I hate telling people they "must read" anything.
But that's how I had to rate this thread. Guess I'll get used to the rating system ... eventually.
