Define "insanely evil..."
I thought Uncle Moneybags kicked the bucket...?
Can Obama get around Congress to accomplish this? The Republican house would still have to sign on to get the money appropriated, right? The answers to these questions used to be obvious but nowadays they just seem to be making it up as they go along.
Like the Aztec princes, who asked, after hastening the pace of sacrifices to the gods when the Spanish arrived, "Why isn't this working?"
Or the class of Roman officials who had embezzeled as much as they could while wrangling tax concession after tax concession from the emperor, and then asked, "Why don't we have money to pay an army to fight the barbarians?"

Goody! Goody! Michelle will get to go on another luxury vacation. Of course, her husband will go and she’ll HAVE to accompany him - with all her relatives and whoever in the heck the other 500-600 people are who always travel with her.
I ain’t so proud of my country anymore!!
Nothing is as it appears with Obama. This bailout is to protect large US banks who hold European debt. It’s like when they bailed out AIG in order to pay GS off.
If the roles were reversed EU-rope would ask for an ownership stake in our banks in return.
Why don’t we ever get anything for our nations benevolence? (re: Iraq,kosovo,afghan,pakistan....)
Yes.
One phone call to the Federal Reserve ought to do it. Well, actually, he might not even have to phone, they've probably already sent a trillion or two secretly on their own.
