Once again, the Bush is swindling us for $700 billion
Where the hell is the crisis? We have bailed out all the parties that 'we' are responsible for. Just because investment banks made bad decisions they are NOT our fault.

Its hard to believe we are in Severe Economic Danger when the US Government has $700 Billion to divvy out to lord knows who.

If there is a money supply problem - take that $700 billion and make it available to banks to loan to PEOPLE.

These mother fuckers are pulling their last capper before they leave.

And no matter what WE say - 'our dem leaders' are falling for it...

Wonder why everybody is having a special meeting with Bush? What, to present their 'gifts' for voting for this? A few extra million in the pockets of the legislators - no problem.

They make the laws - they enforce the laws. They own the media to snow us.

And these pricks will have stolen another $1 trillion while we wallow in pig shit.

1. The Democrats OWN this now.
The Democrats will NEVER clean the stink of this from their party - this will be a knife to shove in their backs forever.

They fell for Roves trap - again

Stupid.

3. And why does this have to be a rush decision?
Unless, Bush does not want Congress to take time to read the fine print?

We will spend the money anyway to prop up the banks only now, there will be no confidence in the markets nor in the world and we will have a collapse. I hated the plan but this is worse.

Paulson came out originally, telling us the only reason for such a high number (700b) was to restore confidence in the markets. At the same time, he was telling everyone if we don't do it, we'll all die. How does telling us we'll all die help market confidence? Wouldn't confidence be higher by telling everyone we'll be fine either way, but worse off without some kind of assistance?

Here, we see the final Bush scam. Our punishment for not impeaching him. Let us make sure he and the Republican party suffer their punishments (the elimination of the party would be a good start).
