The Democrats first step to giving our country away to terrorists. Ironic thing though, they’ll be the first to fall.

Meanwhile Dem CEO's are putting pressure on banking chairman Frank and Dodd to get the thing passed.

This should be interesting.

Yes, we’ve seen this before. A program created by Democrats, lauded by Democrats, protected by Democrats, staffed by Democrats, and run into the ground by Democrats blows up and now the US taxpayer has to pick up the tab.

Fannie and Freddie were the root cause of this problem, Patty.

But the current generation of Democratic congressional leaders feels burned
Yeah, since they've only been there since the early 70's they aren't all that experienced just yet.

For once I think the old goat is on the right side of an issue - have you read the proposed bill (we’ve been calling it the “No Banker Left Behind Act”)?

It’s frightening in its vagueness and unlimitedness.

I think that this is one bill that needs not to be rushed through - the repercussions are too great.

I didn’t say it was good or bad - I said Leahy is about the last person in government to be complaining about anything...

I’ve written to my three reps and asked them to not vote for this bill. For whatever good that will do. I fear this is a fait accompli.

Good! Block it! Kill it! Drive a stake through its socialist heart so it never rises again! Then get the hell out of the way, you worthless old bag of wind.

Does anyone here really think we should be spending a trillion dollars with no oversite and golden parachutes for the idiots on Wall Street that got us into this mess? Are we going to let some of these crooks buy stuff back for a fraction like they did in the savings and loan debacle?

If Republicans are smart, they'll agree with the dems and give me a boost of enthusiasm this election.

The Democrats might actually be on our side this time.

By "our side", I mean those of us who have concluded that, even at the risk of financial collapse, Paulson's "Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP)" must be opposed, because it puts too much power and money, with no oversight but with complete legal immunity, in the hands of the very bankers who played such a substantial role in creating this crisis, for their clear benefit, at enormous expense to this nation.

I elaborated my opposition to TARP more in an earlier post, The Mother Of All Frauds(Digesting the Bailout Bill) - Post #23

If the 'Rats do manage to sink TARP, and if there is a major financial panic in the next month, then they would have a hard time (though I'm sure the media will come to their rescue) avoiding the blame for that panic.

I'm still long popcorn futures.

I know how you feel. All they care about is getting reelected so they can rape, pillage and plunder us all repeatedly.

I would recomend that Leahy, Biden, Obama, et al. start by reading Vision of the Anointed by Thomas Sowell.

This book exposes the precise modus operandi that's being used here, as well as when most social-engineering sort of legislation is proposed.

But I think their heads would explode if they were exposed to its pages.

This is the Sovietization of the financial markets. It dwarfs anything Hillarycare ever dreamed of!

None of these pygmies in either party cares about freedom. No one will stop anything. They won't even read it.
