Futures shot UP on the news. It baffles me.

Equity traders rode the short bus, watch the bonds, they don't like it, interest rates going up with bailout. If Paulson and Bernanke continue with their follies the US is in deep doo doo. The only thing they are doing is delaying the inevitable and making it much worse when it comes. The dollar will be demolished.

I guess when things get bad enough regular folks will figure out we still have the best government money can buy and they will do something about it. The Federal Reserve and Congress got us in this mess and they are only looking out for themselves not us. Right now Paulson and Bernankle are telling the commoners to "eat cake". I am disgusted with our supposed "leadership" they are either incompetent, stupid or corrupt and I'm leaving towards all three.

Frank and Dodds haven't done crap for five years other than collect contributions from banks and get us into this mess, why are they still being listened too?

It’s an election year. Dems are too busy promoting how lametarded Bush was and the Republicans are just starting to get a game plan together. Congress focused on what you would expect any counter-culture politician to focus in on. Rules for baseball, toilets, hating Bush, Iraq defeat, shall I go on?
