Where is the help??
For those folks that have failed on their mortgages? Where are the regulations on the big banks that almost broke every single one of us? Where are the prosecutors for Dick Cheney and the lawbreakers of the last Administration? Where are the peacemakers? Where is healthcare reform? Where are the jobs? Where is the change? Where is the Democratic Party?

Is change impossible under the present conditions? Are we expecting too much from the President and our Party? Why can't we all be comfortable as Republicans?

1. Is change impossible under the present conditions?
One thing we need to remember, dollars are worth more than change.

5. They left Katrina setting there with no help and my guess is that the
government is so broke that it is not going to offer help for housing foreclosures. The bank stimulus was a method to siphon off the last little bit to the rich. The stimulus was and is a real attempt to help but it can only go so far. We will see.

7. The problem with that is that the banks got billions for 'toxic assets'.
AND they get to foreclose. They are double dipping, and we are getting fucked over.
