"a lot of stupid people here...

Yes a lot of frightened and uncertain people, and such people are given to striking out using conduct unbecoming of Conservatives.

As nasty as this bill and process, especially, has been, the threat posed by the demagogue narcissist and a Democrat triumph is far more chilling, to American freedom. Does anyone expect criminal investigations of Frank, Dodd and many others is likely in a McCain administrations? Little, obviously.

How much less will, "by marvelous means, out" if the fascist thugs using the Allinsky methods, seek justice? Such a though gives me a urinary shiver.

Ordinarily, I'd be content to allow this scum to come to office so another generation can discover the depths we plumbed in the Carter Administration. Of course, an end to fair and free elections may be the result of such an outcome, so it hardly seems worth it to start worrying about the incestuous relations between Wall Street and Congress in a news cycle which, might otherwise have been dominated by the automaker's $25 Billion in loan guarantees, as Congress finally passed it's delinquent budget.

My fellow Freepers, do not allow the pundits to choose your fights for you. You really have won this battle, and should count your blessings. The ACORN slush fund has been eliminated. It really has. Instead, how few of you have bothered to start hammering the Narcissist Demogogue for his lies about Annenberg, and his attempt to radicalize the Chicago school system?

The fact is, we all know, the best bailout would have been massive tax cuts. But that choice was made by the American voters in 2006.

Obama and his minions pose a clear and present danger to the Republic. It's not enough to hope for the opportunity to discredit liberalism by its failure, as it most certainly would, if it comes to full strength next year.

This man's open radical liberalism is being lost in this story. He is a Marxist, at worst, and a tool of Marxists, at best.

This is not good policy, etc. No question.

There is better policy, and justice has come out perverted.

I'm simply not confident we will have the opportunity to defeat him in 2012. We underestimate the danger posed by this man, I think.

This does not mean I support this legislation. I am in favor of what works, and the only thing that works is to get government off the backs of the American people.

Obama must be stopped, Nov. 4, preferably by a large margin. His strident madness (yes, "madness") cannot be allowed to become the voice of the shinning city.

Not me, Hussein is not loyal to the United States...nor are his comrades. He will have control over our most secret intell, our military, our Treasury, DOJ, CIA, national security. Anti-americans, Marxists, Communist, terrorists, Islamists will have access like never before in our history.

Now way....I will not let him near to our government.

"All day long nObama has been making the rounds, spouting off and I thought WTF is McCain doing?"

McCain was on This Week with Stephenopolis this morning.

I had a bank close while i had a mortgage. All that happened was my mortgage and many others were sold to another bank. No change in due date, amount or anything else.

I saw a clip of Barry campaigning that said—McCain's response was Katrina-like. Man, they never give up, do they?

Ok- thanks for the text , too- he released this a few hours ago.

Now all the cables have gone to pre-recorded programs- though i’m sure they’ll break in when our guys come out.

FNCs reporter who was at yesterday's Obama campaign rally said that when he mentioned the bailout the applause was noticeably muted. What does that say? Even demorats don't want this.
