Transparency is the government listening to our phone calls and monitoring all of our financial transactions - not Paulson, Buffett, Timmy Geitner, and the rest of the cabal consolidating our major private assets.

Did you hear Specter on with Hannity at the top of his show? I missed some of it — need to find a later broadcast so i can hear it — talk about clueless.... HOW did that man ever get elected, much less get re-elected?

Plenty more pap where that BS came from. Like STIMULUS PACKAGE -- (Senate - February 06, 2009), where Lord Senator McConnell utters more crap that he hopes his constituents will buy.

Unfortunately I did hear Sphinctersaurus - the old coot. You didn't miss a thing - he just kept repeating that his independent analysis told him it's the right thing to do. CBO, Reagan, FDR, Japan - they're not credible. Reid, Pelosi, Obama, Biden - those are the authorities.

I wish Sean had a little better elevator pitch of the facts about how markets correct themselves when governments don't manipulate them. He could have quoted the excellent WSJ Op Ed today by the Stanford Prof that outlined how government caused this financial mess, then made it MUCH worse by screwing with it.

Also, only 3 RINOs are voting for this POS and 11 Rats voted against the less expensive house version.

AAAARRRRRRHHHHHH!!!!!

Government’s view of the economy..If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it. Ronald Reagan

A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have. -Thomas Jefferson

for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle. Churchill

If you think health care is expensive now, wait until you see what it costs when it’s free! - P.J. O’Rourke

Sean needs to READ!!!! Glenn Beck would have done a better job on Specter.
