As long as they go along with things like adding 150 BILLION in pork to bills like TARP they ARE part of the problem... and that is a fact. Instead of just pointing fingers away from themselves across the aisle and saying see they did it, too, they need to own up and stand their ground on fiscally conservative principles. In fact the GOP would do well to tighten their message to one of lower taxes and cutting spending — and hmmmmm that is pretty much the message JD is using here in AZ to run against Progressive Republican John McCain.
To this day most have no idea how close we came to a total meltdown in late September. Many billions of dollars drained out of the stock market. it was a coup against America and no one has been charged with the crime.
Without drastic action by President Bush I cannot imagine what would have happened.
It elected this maoist so I believe the attack on our markets was orchestrated by those who wanted this man to be our president.
