Before the Senate passed this bailout, the market was stable to rising. After they passed it, looks like the market is in freefall. Looks like they would learn!

There’s simply no way of telling what Bush’s legacy might be.

Bush still has four months, a few more bailouts and he'll have spent more money than every Democrat President that ever served.

The media says what organized money wants told to the public. Organized money wants the Paulson bill because it does nothing to address the fraudulent trading practices used to bring down Fannie, Freddie, Lehman, AIG and all the others. The Paulson plan will allow all the fraud in the markets to continue, but will give him a slush fund to use along with the other dictatorial powers he has used against the targeted companies.

All should be pressing Republicans to join the “no” voting Dems to do the bill proposed Tuesday by Kaptur, DeFazio, Doggett and others. Yes, it’s may be hard to believe, but their bill is far more conservative than the Paulson plan and would actually address the scams occurring in the financial markets.

The bailout will not fix the long term problems in the economy... nor calm the financial markets. House conservatives should move to kill it!

Should read: “Bush won’t support House Republicans, Senate Republicans, or the Republican ticket of McCain/Palin for President”

McCain shot himself in the Chest by supporting this socialist bailout.

He has no one but himself to blame!

Which of those things would John McCain not have done? He wouldnt have nominated Harriet Miers. Other than that....

No, he would nominate someone far worse given his "Maverick" history.

Tried to e-mail my representative this morning and throughout the day—they’ve either “pulled the plug” on the website, or it’s crashed again from heavy traffic. Good thing or bad, you decide!

You can add the 1985 amnesty as the second mistake, a consequence we are living with today.

Besides shoddy leadership in Iraq, what else has Jorge Arbusto done for the country? I can’t think of much.

To: Chances Are

After 9/11 Bush stated that our reponse to terrorism would be dealt with by covert ops and surgical strikes similar to what Israel has been doing for 60 years. But he involved us in a massive war in Iraq and Afghanistan. Seems like we should have learned something from the Russians who were defeated in Afghanistan or maybe even from the French in Indo-China before we raced in there.

It matters not if Bush supports or not because Bush has become irrelevant!

I thank him for many things.
And no, I don’t support about 30% of his decisions.
That still leaves my support level at 70%.

Remember that Sorority Sister thread that used to run here about him

I didn't realize that it went away. I guess it's a safe bet there won't be any Day in the Life of Obamessiah posted here though. LOL!
