Might I suggest that none of the loons in Congress write the new bill. Call in some experts, people with no interest in spending money on payoffs and pork. An institution with such low public approval shouldn’t be writing bills that plunder America. This particular bunch of professional thieves shouldn’t be allowed to touch our money.

It makes you wonder what would have happened if McCain had won the election.
