The Wall Street banksters still have their hooks in our Treasury. They are the winners and we are the losers. They should be bankrupt, but we’ve refilled their tank on our dime.

Nearly $82 BILLION in four days? I am speechless.Yeah... but half of it was used to pay off old debt, and half of it was used to borrow more.

No problem. They will just increase the debt ceiling. Who’s going to stop them? The Republicans?

Sounds like Obama and crew may be about to pull a Maburak and haul ass. If so, it is well worth the cost. I wonder if he will give back Air Force One?
