QUESTION: Will the bailout result in a tax increase to pay for it?

A bank pal told me that Janet Reno promised a “reign of terror,” if a certain percentage of their loans were not written to unqualified borrowers.

PC Correctness will prevent this frombeing perceived by the American public

Obama is already running ads blaming the lack of regulation on the GOP

Don’t look for any McCain ads ( too partisan )

Maybe 527 ads —I sure hope so

There is no better example of the government being the problem than this current crisis.

Yes, the Federal Government, specifically the Democrats are responsible for this mess, and not "Wall Street greed " as tooo many (even) Freepers think.

The taxpayers, the ones who elected these Democrats and probably the ones who will continue to elect these Democrats, and not the private financial institutions SHOULD pay for this mess.

It's the Federal Government's telling private financial institutions who to lend money to, that is the socialism here.

The communists have been very clever. To paraphrase that old internet game, “We’ve been set up for the bomb. but good.” The Commies have told us that they’d bury us, and they’d do it from inside. And they have.

First, Carter gave homes to people who couldn’t pay for them. Then Clinton and Janet Reno threatened the banks with very stiff fines if they didn’t hand out such homes to those who couldn’t pay for them.

Now Clinton lies about stock holders for Fannie Mae making too much money which furthers the hatred for those who work and make money. And he throws in the top officials of Fanny making indecent bonuses, never mind that the dem party set it up that way.

Then they pass a law saying that any crime against blacks is a HATE CRIME.

In the meantime, they’ve taken over most of the media who back them up.

Then along comes their black presidential candidate who has threatened anyone with prosecution who “lies” about him. This last step is not to keep the election honest. It is to scare anyone who dares show him for what he is.

Yes, the Communists have been working on this for a long time, and they have plently of practice, going back to Stalin.

And, let’s not forget the invasion on FR in the last election who said that they would vote for a dem for congress because Bush was “too liberal.” Yep, they showed us, didn’t they when they elected a liberal congress?

President Clinton told Matt Lauer that “. . . it looks like that was true,” but that he had to take in consideration what was happening at the time this was done. He cited a balanced budget, a budget surplus, a rapidly growing economy and too much money going back to Fannie Mae shareholders and executives as reasons to justify this affirmative action policy.

As Clinton explains why he pressed for unqualified loans he shows his ignorance. Under the circumstances he describes the last needed was free loans to the unqualified. If the economy was strong and too much money going back to shareholders why add more money to the pot?

Just more Clinton lies to cover his butt.
