And so the revolution shall begin.
Those are lulus.
don’t want to lose the critical american samoa vote
I don’t see the problem. These “sweeteners” are a critical part of saving the economy. /s
My personal favorite, the bicycle commuters’ benefits.
Our Congress is corrupt to the core! They are obviously not listening to the American people. They only care about themselves and their pet projects.
We seem to be on a train towards socialism (which could become runaway at any time)!
Does this mean that the cost of my rum will go down? Pleeease.
I am screaming mad! Yesterday in Portland there were people who probably haven’t agreed with each other on anything political in 20 years but who joined together to protest this “bailout”. There were long haired hippies, Obama supporters, McCain supporters - all freaking pissed!
This a.m. on Fox I heard Maxine Waters blaming all this on a lack of regulation. She wasn’t even challenged!!! ENOUGH!
Vote them all out!
Whew, I was sure glad to see that not getting a rebate for riding a bike is a “National Crisis”. Thank you guys, I feel safer now knowing we have morons in the Senate
Very interesting.
These are as sweet as Hillary’s cankles...
Would it be asking too much to Fire Barney Frank and Chris Dodd and maybe try to recoup a few million from Rainey? Cronyism is a crime...where is Nancy and her most ethical congress ever.....oh, busy still trying to stoke the faux crisis and cover for the Democratic Crooks like Christopher Dodd and Barney Franks! Disgusting!!!
The county, not the stock market, are reeling at the arrogance and audacity of these elected for the people. Vote 'em out!
Sec. 201. Deduction for state and local sales taxes
Allows residents of states that don’t pay income tax to deduct, from their federal taxes, sales tax paid over the course of the year. States that benefit include Texas, Nevada, Florida, Washington and Wyoming. The bailout bill extends this provision for 2 years at a cost of $3.3 billion.
I think this is pathetic. But I’ll try to laugh.
Claims that we are heading for the great depression, or that we are socializing a major sector of America, or that Government doesn’t have a clue, take second place to micromanaging the economy to the benefit of parochial special interests. The Senate bail-out package required the following in order to pass:
Exemption from excise tax for certain wooden arrows designed for use by children.
Our politicians have come a long ways since preparing the Declaration of Independence.
Just think of all the money I’ll save on suction-cup arrows over the next 4 years.
For example, somebody who works for Acorn rides a bike to work. They'll get 10 million bucks for that.
Is this more what you were looking for?
Tatt
Even the harshest critic of the 700 billion dollar bail-out could of respected that.
