Pelosi, Reid, Frank, et al all want to make this the "fault" of the Republicans, when...in fact...(and please excuse the caps )
If I hear those idiots try to put the Republicans in a bad light for blocking this vote when they were exactly representing the wishes of their constituency I will scream.
This vote did not pass becaus it should not have passed. I am glad it did not pass.
However... IT IS NOT A MATTER OF FAULT --- IT IS A MATTER OF OUR REPRESENTATIVES DOING THEIR JOB AND SERVING THE INTERESTS OF THE PUBLIC. And there were members of Congress on both sides who did just that.
Pelosi and the others just make me sick...always turning everything into a negative against the Republicans. Congress took a vote...that's what voting is about...nothing should ever be passed carte blanche without thorough attempts at revisions and changes. Did they forget that point? That is exactly what legislators are supposed to do.
You are evil, calculating liars and represent only one thing: the worst of what people should be andyou illustrate exactly how people should not behave. You have no honor!
The vote amounts to a bipartisan rejection of the bailout bill, but failure to pass the bill lies completely with the majority party. I’d love to know why so many members of the congressional black caucus - enough to reverse the fortunes of the bill - voted against the bill.
