"I’m not entirely sure where Mr. Santelli lives or in what house he lives but the American people are struggling every day to meet their mortgages, stay in their jobs, pay their bills, send their kids to school,” Gibbs said."

I'm not entirely sure where Mr. Gibbs lives or in what house he lives but the American TAXPAYERS are struggling every day to understand how in the Sam Hill taking MORE of their money, and their children's and grand-children's money, and giving it to speculators and deadbeats is going to help the economy. From where I sit, this looks like punishing good behavior, and subsidizing bad behavior.

My 401k is down 35%+ - the one I have diligently scrimped and saved to fund over my 28-year career. I've never missed a mortgage payment, never carried credit card debt, never been late on a bill. I've foregone nice dinners, expensive vacations, and a bigger house. I've put 1 child through college on my own dime, because the goverment doesn't think I should get any of my own tax money back in the form of a tuition credit. I have 2 more children in college, on my own dime for the same reason.

Yet I'm being told that I am not doing enough. That I'm either greedy or un-patriotic for not wanting to bail out people that made bad investment decisions. WHERE IS MY BAIL-OUT?

I'll see Mr. Santelli, and hopefully millions of others like myself at the Chicago Tea-Party in July!!

“Yet I'm being told that I am not doing enough.”

And, to boot, Mr. Holder says you are likely a ‘Coward’ because having Obama as POTUS and he as Att’y General is apparently not enough. I guess he is telling us we have to look into our deep rooted racism until we get it right.

Month one down and too many to go.

Ditto on everything you just described in your posting.

I am in exactly the same shoes... one kid finished with college (entirely paid off) and doing her masters on her own dime, plus 2 kids in college and between their jobs & my portion of their college expenses, we are doing everything to get their college educations completed and also totally paid up. Plus I have never missed a mortgage payment. And my 401K for 28 years is now tanking everytime Oboooombi opens his commie mouth.

I am fed up that rat b@$t@rd socialist-fascist-commie Obooombi and his stooge Gibbs, telling me that I am not doing enough and that we have to cover the deadbeats who would have never qualified for mortgage loan in the first place, if the gubmint had not made it mandatory & criminally liable if mortgage companies did not hand out mortgages loans to inner city deadbeats. I am sure many of the houses quickly turned into crack houses.

Go Tea-Party!!! I hope we throw that skinny a$$ usurper out of office!!!
