If it’s (just) the Dem’s fault (and I’m not absolving them) then explain why Iceland is bankrupt.

AWESOME NEW SLOGAN!!!

That has got to be the non-stop chant!

The Republicans/McCain need to make this point loud and clear. Game over. As simple as that.

I still don’t understand (and it may take a book length tome to remedy that) how a few bad loans in one sector of something so unimaginably large as the US economy can cause the collapse of not only said US economy, but financial markets all over the world.

Rats thrive on crisis and debacles. Its the best time for them to make shifts to the left. If the crisis does not occur naturally (ie, Katrina), then they can be manufactured (fannie, terrorism (encouraged by Rats), strikes, disenfranchisement, racism).

The GOP was in power in Congress for 14 years. The GOP had the White House for the last 8 and still the veto pen.

This is not the fault of conservative ideology, but it is the fault of the GOP as it currently exists.

Blaming the Democrats for doing what Democrats do is like blaming a new puppy for pooping on the rug. You know it is going to happen and if you don’t stop it you are a fool to blame the dog.

The only problem is that since it IS the GOPs fault, the ridiculous two-party system means the untrained dogs are going to be put in charge of cleaning the crapped-up rug.

Can’t believe what I heard on Scarborough( boring with joe) this morning. He actually said that back in 93 the White House said we were headed for a housing disaster due to the sub-prime lending policy. Barney Frank told Clinton he was willing to roll the dice and see what comes up. I can’t believe that Frank isn’t under investigation.

Good slogan. Sorta like..."If it doesn't fit, you must acquit.

New OJ line:

If you lose your stuff and throw a fit,
there is not way they will acquit.

If polls are to be believed a majority of the American voters are going to give these ba$tards complete reign. I guess the pi$$ poor public education this country has provided its citizens with accounts for this. We have a press loaded with commie ba$tards who are cheer leading the demise of our country. I started up smoking again after I learned I have to die in 10 yrs. My market losses are horrendous and will take too long to recover. I hate loath and despise democrats. I only hope before my 10 yrs. are up I see Barney Frank die of aids and Chris Dodd die of a heart attack and the Black caucus exposed for what they are a bunch of pimps. Apologies to moderators in advance for having to remove my comment but I'm just so angry at this time I had to express my feelings.

[dalebert]

why isnt someone getting this info to the public

[sten]

ok... so we saw a bail out... where are the criminal investigations?

at the very least, congress MUST show they are willing to admit mistakes and clean house a bit. to this end, there should be, MUST be, a call for Barney Franks removal from the House Financial Services Committee

if congress wants to send a signal to the American people, this would be a good start
