		<description>Congratulations go out to our &quot;new direction&quot; congress that has managed to put their collective fingers in the whole of a dam while the sides are falling in around them. While the politicians can now go home, (and attempt to explain how this bailout is a &quot;good thing&quot; for middle America), regular working taxpayers have to be scratching their heads over what just occurred. Two weeks ago Pelosi and Reid &quot;took a pass&quot;, (failed on a fourth and one for you football fans), on passing any energy legislation that could have opened up a resurgence of an industry that has been buried in environmental and special interest litigation for thirty years. Seventy percent of the folks in this nation were in favor of opening up offshore drilling and the &quot;all of the above&quot; inclusion of alternative energy ideas to get us off of the 700 billion a year dependence on foreign supply. Where was the outrage in the mainstream media? They were too busy wondering if Sarah Palin is not elite enough to fit their warped view of a new socialist America. With the prices at the gas pumps still sucking the hard earned dollars out of our pocket books, our government, (yes, from Bush all the way down to the last staff member in both houses) shoves another 700 billion dollar tax bill down the throats of the electorate. And now they&#039;re coming home to ask for your vote. The &quot;restructuring&quot; of the financial markets should be preceded by an over-all restructuring of the mentality in Washington that has returned us to the welfare status of the Carter years. And to think it only took two years of Democrat control to get us into a condition of relying on the government for our every need. (Conservatives also have contributed to this run-away spending in the name of social equality that has put the fiscal burden on the backs of the taxpayers.) When does it end? Maybe a financial breakdown on Wall Street would be a healthy way for all of these big spenders to get back to where they can live within the means of real capital without the governments &quot;extension of credit&quot; / BAILOUT. When your legislators come home, let them know that you&#039;re not very proud of any &quot;accomplishments&quot; they plan to brag about------there aren&#039;t any.</description>

		<description>Too bad Yonason, I don&#039;t live in the States.    I would go out there, door to door and give people the right information.   I would try to get a hudge group doing the same thing all over the country, till the 4th of november.   You are right, something must be done.   Now, I understand McCain better for wanting to put his campaign aside to go to DC... he was probably afraid that the crooked Dems, would screw up the bailout and give all the money to their friends.</description>

That&#039;s just the tip of the iceberg.  And that&#039;s why &lt;strike&gt;I&#039;m&lt;/strike&gt; so many conservatives are so angry with Bush and Reps for allowing it to go on for so long.  While the Dems have been screaming about nothing and subverting everything, the Reps have been going along with business as usual and not fighting back.  Well, there&#039;s a time to fight back, and it was at the very least 8 years ago.  

Unfortuantely, I&#039;ve seen a lot of foolish people saying they want to get the Reps they are mad at out of office, even though that would replace them with Dems who are so much worse there is no comparison.  We are in some very dangerous times, and we all need to do what we can not only to keep Obama out, but to take a new direction away from where the Left will take us if we do nothing.

ps - thanks for the excellent links you provide.</description>

		<description>Yonason,

I&#039;ve checked all your links... wow!    Acorn and Democrats are really crooks.   They should be both wiped out of the map.     I&#039;m in shock, so much corruption from the leftists, incredible!     I wonder why they were complaining in the past election about the vote being thight in Florida... they were talking like it was a Republican&#039;s fraud.     What a bunch of assholes!    THEY ARE the corrupted ones.   I&#039;m totally disgusted.

P.S.:   The worse case is: ... the goon squads in Missouri.   Ouch!</description>

That&#039;s not the only foolish thing Bush has done in his misquided attempts at evenhandedness.  There&#039;s also the appointment, and RE-appointment, of treasonous ICE princess.

   Video of Democrats in their own words on Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac Scam



This is a great arguement for &quot;experience&quot; isn&#039;t it?  Feh..
How could Governor Palin or even some bum off the street do any worse than what has been done already?

		<description>AdrianS,

I couldn&#039;t agree more with you.    Let this financial crisis be fix by people who knows:   The Economists.   Leave politicians out of it.    Let it be.    It will self-heal.    Just give it a bit of time... and please don&#039;t make it worse with this dumb bail out.</description>

		<description>The current economic &quot;crisis&quot; is not a crisis at all.  As a matter of fact, it is not systemic, for if it were, J.P. Morgan would not be buying Washington Mutual, Bank of America would not have bought Countrywide, Warren Buffet would not have bought into Goldman Sachs and Barclays would not have purchased Lehman Brothers.  Could it be that there are some level headed business heads in the world?  Shall we reward failure?  No.

Is this scare, with threats of &quot;no credit available&quot; if they don&#039;t get the money, a real threat?  And, if it is, could it be that the threat is to the Yale and Harvard graduates that have failed miserably in predicting the future of their investments?  Is there punitive action available for those who seem to have engaged in illegal activities?  Can we have Enron style of law enforcement of the culprits?

I have contacted my representatives and Senator to object in the most serious manner to any kind of bailout for the misguided businesses that have run their own investments into the ground.  Or, at least they say they have.  Has their been independent verification of it?

Realize this.  Committing $700 Billion to One trillion dollars of money that does NOT exist is folly and will produce only three things:  1)  a serious matter of inflation; 2) economic enslavement of the masses, and 3) a more robust public trough for grabs.  That&#039;s right.  

And, what is the interest on this kind of money if these special deals go south?  The government will tell us ONLY the rosy imaginary side of the prospect, but will not tell what will happen if this plan does not produce the desired result?  

Best thing for a free economy, for capitalism, for our independence is to drop the insanity of giving one person, one entity control of so much money.  The irony of it all is that this is tantamount to a crowning.  In America we don&#039;t have kings.  But give this amount of control over this much money to one individual or one organization and you have essentially crowed them king, or kings.

The government that gets in bed with business is a Fascist government -- or Socialist.  If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck ... guess what?  This is bad precedence for our free-market style of enterprise business.  The businesses that have gone bad are no better than the Montgomery Wards, Comp USA, or other business that have gone by the wayside.  Others will grow to take the business from those that fail. That&#039;s evolution in the business world -- only the strong (and intelligent) survive.

Fidel Castro, in his death bed, and Hugo Chavez, is singing the praises to Communism and laughing at us.  They are poking fun at the workings of Democracy and Capitalism.  Let&#039;s not disappoint them and work to keep Capitalism the great driving force engine of America.  He who laughs last laughs best.

Say no to any bailout.  Don&#039;t subscribe to your and your progeny&#039;s economic enslavement.  For this is, if left to fester, a precedence that government will use again and again to gain more and more control of American businesses.   This is not a Chrysler loan.  This is a power grab of very large proportions.  This is bare naked greed on steroids.  Making the innocent pay for the errors of those entrusted to lead in America&#039;s businesses and our government is shameful and will have serious repercussions.

The current bailout proposal is no better than a classy liberal bank heist.  &quot;Give us the money, or else?&quot;

PS:  Let&#039;s not underestimate John McCain&#039;s resolve to do for the country that which is right.  He has the track record.  I&#039;m voting for McCain because he truly is a maverick and a reformer - he&#039;s an independent thinker.  He has what is takes to be our Commander-in-Chief.</description>
