Paulson also hired Obama supporters (Dems) as his two chief assistants after getting the job. I think Paulson should be investigated about his role in all of this.
Bush’s stand to back Paulson against the GOP speaks volumes about why some of us are so disgusted with this President.
BTTT for reference
BTTT!
Don’t give up and fall for the Dems propaganda everyone! This is NOT OVER!
(Thank you for posting this as its own thread, and for the ping on the other thread!)
:) You’re quite welcome!
FOX reporting emails from viewers LOVE the House GOP standing firm.
Blunt says we want more free-enterprise provisions etc- and if the Dems insist on the bill as it is- it’s their bill and we’re not voting for it..
This plan is MUCH different than the completely socialist taxpayer-funded, earmark and pork-laden Paulson bill it’s astounding!
I have been one of the most stubborn and outspoken critics here the last few days. HOWEVER, if something is going to be done, I would MUCH rather it be this than the Paulson plan! THIS I could find myself supporting...
Cutting taxes, Private Funding, Oversight, and Responsibility laid back on the COMPANIES, and not turning the government into one huge corporation! Maybe I’m missing something here, but I’m not disliking this.
As I understand it, part of the problems that led to this crisis was the fact that there was no oversight. There was no-one watching these companies. McCain tried numerous times to get oversight passed into law, but his bill(s) were blocked in committee by the Dems and not even DISCUSSED or debated!
This does NOT use taxpayer dollars to finance any bailout...
And as far as the healthcare “remodel” — that is NOT the Republicans! THAT is the Democrats. THEY are the ones pushing for SOCIALIZED medicine financed, again, by our tax dollars.
I don’t really understand where you are coming from saying that these are not new ideas. This is a 180 degree turn around from the COMPLETELY taxpayer funded Paulson plan.
I also don’t understand how these provisions show contempt for the taxpayer — they are trying to STOP the Democrats from passing the bill that COMPLETELY takes our tax dollars, rewards the criminals in this, and also gives MILLIONS to left-wing organizations. THAT is contempt for the taxpayer. The House Republicans are trying to STOP that from happening with these ideas. If they are so dang intent on passing SOMETHING, I would MUCH rather it be these provisions than ANYTHING in the Paulson plan!
Are you sure about that? I had heard numerous times over the last day or so that the ACORN financing was to come out of the “returns” taxpayers were supposed to get as a result of the 700 Billion buying up these bad mortgages. That was part of the reason (besides it being left wing organizations) that people were so ticked about it. The Dems were already spending the supposed return we (taxpayers) were supposed to earn in the Paulson plan...
I do know there was a 650 Billion dollar spending bill passed the other day (nice, eh?), but if I’m not totally mistaken the ACORN funding is DIRECTLY tied to the Paulson Plan.
Is there any possible way we can get this thread moved to Breaking News?
People are reading DeMint’s propaganda and freaking out... Some are even thinking the Paulson plan has ALREADY PASSED! *smacks forehead*
We need to get the word out that the House GOP has NOT given up, and the Democrats are trying to break us down with their propaganda. (another fact is that my own Democrat representative is NOT on board with this plan - David Obey (D-WI), so it just points more to the fact that the Democrats are lying about how much support they really have...).
Thanks for considering this. I hate to see FReepers lose heart listening to the socialist’s lies...
My apologies, I see that it is indeed already there. (Gosh do I feel silly now...)
*DeMint’s Propaganda should’ve been the DEMS propaganda! Time for a break! LOL
