It's about time! Why wasn't Boehner talking like this when Paulson bailout came to a vote????

It would be nice if they were resolved to oppose him. They haven’t so far.

We’ll see if the Republicans grew a spine, or if this is just a dream sequence.

Congress has already proved they can’t provide decent oversight for these ridiculous bailouts ——— no more stimulus fiascos.

If the GOP votes for a bill with ACORN money in it, they are finished as a party.

Because Bush was a Republican.
There is no principle involved in any of these guys votes, its just oppose the other guy.
Of course he should have been saying this to Paulson but its easier to keep the home team fans happy than lead on principle

I’ll believe this when the vote is recorded in the Congressional Record.

The GOP needs to just say, NO! Let the ‘RATS have full credit for the coming disaster (they created, IMHO). The ‘RATS wanted total control of the country. They’ve got it. Why be token GOPers just going along with this fiasco in a phony “spirit of bipartisanship.” STAND UP AND SAY NO!!!!! Remember what the ‘RATS and their media toadies always say, “Dissent is the highest form of patriotism.” Let’s be patriotic and say, NO!

Because the Paulson bailout was sold to the American people as loans to be paid back with interest. I remember hearing that we, the people, would actually likely be making money on the bailout from September. This new bailout is just a free money giveaway to the people who sent money to 0bama’s campaign. We will be paying for it for decades.

everyone will have to take a haircut, he said. He told them he wouldnt increase the size of government just to increase the size of government."We'll see.
Can the GOP figure the language out?
Take a haircut?
Whether you want/like it or not!
The gummint will be swollen with 'legitimate' , absolutely needed and we'd better do it NOW, program employees. No large budget because no one will be making a hell of a lot.

"Boehner grows a pair of gonads" Not too big a pair though. He didn't want to re-engineer his golf swing.

It was understood that, at all costs, the banks could not be allowed to fail. The operation was sloppy and the results have been less than perfect but it looks like most of the patients will live.

Republicans are only for big government when they’re the ones that run it.
To: knarf
I wish the banks would take a haircut, instead they’re off buying private jets with our tax dollars.

Why wasn't Boehner talking like this when Paulson bailout came to a vote???? HE WAS! Boehner called the original TARP deal a crap sandwich, a phrase Michelle Malkin has used incessently since then for the whole bailout extravanganza.
We need to cut our GOP leaders some slack. The media does the best job they can to make them look like fools and even mostly-smart folks can look bad when the press is after them.
So folks, please dont shoot first and ask questions later. If you arent sure, google and/or call them first to find out their real position.
