The congresspeople don't seem afraid of threats to vote them out of office at the next election, for some strange reason.

They should realize that at some point the threats will be to hunt them down and dispatch them like the mad dogs they have become.

Even the Republicans who are using their face time to protest this bill are saying, "we've got to pass some kind of bill." Why? Can't they just vote "no"?

Amen!

That is the most maddening thing about this entire travesty. And it is something the leftists sneak by the 'conservatives' consistently. They start with a completely irrational, unacceptable bill, and then 'water it down' to something slightly less irrational, and just as unconstitutional, pat the 'conservatives' on the head, and brainwash them into believing they have won a victory.

Such victories lend new and grotesque dimension to the term 'Pyrrhic'!

None of these enormous bailouts should have been compromised either. Failing businesses should have been allowed to fail. People who cannot afford their homes should not have been granted the privilege of having others pay their mortgages at the point of a gun. And whatever is wrong with healthcare can be solved with far less than a complete government overhaul of the entire system.

But then how would the long-planned oligarchy be put in place? Aye, there's the rub.

Best to you and yours, meadsjn, in these troubling times ...

Collectivists of a feather...
