Oh no, they di-int.
Why isn’t McCain STOPPING THAT?
He should have an ad out on that.
GEESH!
20%, psshhh that’s chump change. What’s $140 billion here or there?
It’s not all going to ACORN. It’s going to La Raza (The Race) also.
All I can say is if this becomes law, the Republicans may as well fold up their party tent forever. This will end free elections in the U.S. and give the Dems permanent party status. We cannot overcome extreme media bias, educational stupidity, spineless GOP RINO’s AND perpetual massive voter fraud. This is a barbarians at the gate moment.
EVERY PENNY should go to retiring debt.
Anything else is a complete and total fraud.
If this is true this bill must not pass.
They are just poking us in the eye and laughing.
This is why I’m convinced that “the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression” is a con-job. They are trying to jam through the biggest con in history. This would dwarf the last con-job, “Oil for Food”.
My fellow Freepers, we have been ringing the phones off the hook in Washington. Good job! However, we are being ignored by the fat cats. It’s time for action! How about mass demonstrations in Washington and all 50 state capitals? That’s what we did when Al Gore tried to steal the 2000 election. How about Monday? Who is with me?
I need money for my whirley gig shop
Why aren’t the Republicans and McCain screaming at the top of their lungs about this??? Any Republican who votes for any plan that includes tax payer money going to ACORN ought to be drummed out of the caucus.
Anybody have a bill number for this?

Paulson Update [Rich Lowry]
Quick e-mail from friend following negotiations quickly (excuse typos):
So it looks like a deal is shaping up
Treasury purchases plus mbs insurance (cantor)
Strong oversight/taxpayer protection
Limits on executive comp
No liberal add-ons (acorn, bankruptcy judges, proxy access)
Govt equity stake likely to be scaled back or dropped. No staff-level enthusiam for it.
Limit on amount of first tranche of money (less than $700 billion)
This deal gets 100 house gop votes

That’s why the DEM Bail-Out-Bill is dead...
Not one republican will be relected if they let this stand or LaRaza.
Bush better veto this da**ed thing.
When are the American tax payers and voters going to wake up and smell the coffee? The cesspool called Washington that houses the most corrupt, lying, arrogant and useless gathering of elected thieves could care less about what the voters want or need. Their only objective is to screw the voters and get money from those that are stealing money from the investors to give to this bunch of sewer dwelling elected thieves.
Re: ACORN - correct! Earlier in one of the threads DrDeb posted that this was taken off the table yesterday morning, and I was pretty sure it wasn’t. Just heard a few minutes ago on FNC, Election HQ that it is indeed still in there.
AND - on another important subject - remember in the debate last night where liar BHO challenged JSM on the issue of un-conditional negotiations with Iran/Ahmedinejad? He tried to make JSM look stupid by saying that JSM’s own advisor, Dr. Henry Kissinger supported that? Well, not only did JSM immediately come out afterward (somewhere on FNC) saying that Kissinger does NOT support any such thing, but on the same Election HQ just now, they had Kissinger on the phone and he confirmed what McCain said - BHO is just wrong about this and under no circumstances does he support presidential level negotiations with Iran with no pre-conditions (for the same reasons JSM said) and he elaborated quite a bit on it.
You think either this or the ACORN story will be reported to the Public by ANY of the MSM??? When pigs fly (with or without lipstick).
Isn’t all this enough to make your blood boil??
Letter to my Congressman:
Congressman Frelinghuysen,
I’ve been nice, I’ve been willing to “agree to disagree” in regards to your positions vs. my own on offshore drilling, etc.
However - HOWEVER - if you vote for this so-called “Bailout” legislation while funding for ACORN and other subversive groups remains a part of the bill, you will lose my vote in November, and every election thereafter.
Additionally, I will work ceaselessly for your primary opponent during the next election cycle.
Do not - DO NOT - be a party to passage of a dirty bill. Bail out the banks and investment houses if you must, but DO NOT hand over billions of dollars to those who seek to overthrow our Federal System.
I trust this email has gotten someone’s attention.
Thank you
Peter W. Kessler
I haven’t been this fired up since impeachment. I wish I was still in Florida with the best activists in the business.
