Methinks the Democrats are doomed, since they're the once pushing this shit the hardest.
Predictably and ridiculously...nay, insanely...from the moment House Republicans "came up with" the far cheaper and more sensible idea of INSURING rather than BUYING the SHITTY DEBT THAT THE BIG INVESTORS WHO ARE SITTING ON THEIR MONEY DON'T WANT TO OWN, Democrats are fighting to KEEP a bailout bonanza.
Democrats never met a spending package they didn't like, given the opportunity to get their thumbprints on it.
DEMOCRATS GLEAN IN THE BAILOUT
A FAIRY GODMOTHER OPPORTUNITY
I thought the presidential debate was an embarrassment...like two eighth graders squirming in the spotlight in their bids for class president. I will fight for vending machines, plus my mother makes better cookies.
You said this.
Yeah well, you said that.
You also said this.
That's not what I said. First, what you said was...
Obama pointedly would NOT designate spending "concepts" that must necessarily go on the back burner. Often-wrong-but-never-in-doubt McCain...a spending freeze on everything BUT THE MILITARY. I am giving up sugar...everything but Coca-Cola.
The amount of money that has been squandered on this shameless parade of Pick Me! Pick Me! could have gone into the rebuilding of New Orleans. Maybe catch our next worst bridge before it collapses.
A heartbreaking number of people are returning from Iraq with out limbs, without FACES, without relationships, without minds. Campaign-O-Rama doesn't skip a beat. Benazir Bhutto...however corrupted by money, they are ALL corrupted by money, money is very corrupting...the opposition to Musharref, "our guy" in Pakistan who ran for President in a general's uniform, was assassinated. Campaign-O-Rama? Not a hiccup.
We're "serious" about Change? I just watched a television segment on how the dead grass that looks so sad in front of a foreclosure is being PAINTED GREEN. It's a thriving little business all of a sudden.
Word to Congress: people are are fooled about the value of a house because the dead grass has been painted green are EXACTLY the kind of people you don't want stepping into this tenuous market. That would be because they are stupid. Stupid people are more apt to "find themselves" in trouble that renders them unable to pay their bills.
It is a spectacle, a circus. We are PAYING to watch them decide how to take our money.
We are worried enough about what other people think of us to be pouring valuable resources into the Middle East hand over fist. WHAT WILL THE NEIGHBORS THINK? It seems to me that those who, as John McCain never tires of saying, don't like us very much will be pleased to note how malleable and easily subdued are the American People.
