The Democrats first step to giving our country away to terrorists. Ironic thing though, they’ll be the first to fall.
You mean the Dems will make political points?? Who would have thought? /s
The same old jackass have begun their braying again!
Old Leaky Leahy (America’s own Socialist) at it again, eh?
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 burnedYeah, since they've only been there since the early 70's they aren't all that experienced just yet.
HAHAHAHAHAHHAAHHA!!!!!
They will pass it, they can’t say no to socialism and the continued killing of America!!!
Will they help save the nation or pander for votes?
...........never mind.......
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.
If Republicans are smart, they'll agree with the dems and give me a boost of enthusiasm this election.
Stand back and let the dems throw spitballs at each other.
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.
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.
Pat Leahy is a lying sack of filth. Needs to go back to being an extra in Batman movies.
“Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) says he’s seen this movie before: The Bush administration, citing an unprecedented national threat, puts the hammer on Congress to ram through gargantuan legislation with a minimum of review.”
We know what is said about a broken clock...Leahy is correct this time.
Bush wants to ram this through so we the people do not have time to read it.
This little idiot is up to his old tricks again although he is in his 11th hour.
Republicans may be facing the bankruptcy of their free-market philosophy,
This ponzi scheme was anything but a free market operation. Two gigantic companies chartered by the Federal Government, not subject to taxes, license to operate without fear of loss or failure, a gang of congressmen willing to do whatever they wish to improve their market position, and a whole bunch of former government officials getting rich quick. A real free market operation, my a$$. This was a very carefully crafted and refined manifestation of a long standing policy of the Democrat Party: provide home loans to people who can't afford them and won't pay them back. The Democrats, and unfortunately, many Republicans, thought that this lunatic idea had no downside.
“It would be a grave mistake to say that we're going to buy up the bad debt that resulted from the bad decisions of these people and then allow them to get billions of dollars on the way out," House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank (D-Mass.) said on CBS’s “Face the Nation” Sunday.
What hutzpah! Barney Frank is standing up to his neck in this pile of manure and he helped put it there. He is one of the masterminds of this entire scheme, and now he is going to claim that he had nothing to do with it.
Unfortunately, the Republicans will do nothing to counter these outrageous comments and the press will breathlessly report them as if they are the truth come down from the mountain and engraved in stone.
Stand by, folks, you are about to get the bozos who put this together running the entire economy. Start a vegatable garden now, you are going to need it.
But now that Leaky Leahy has come out against it, I am going to have to rethink my position.
I suppose this could fall under the principal that a broken watch is correct two times a day, but I would rather rely on a broken watch than agree Leahy.
Leahy? I’m supposed to believe something said by Leahy? I’d believe something said by Castro before I’d believe something said by Leahy.
If Vermont had not been occupied by leftist clowns in the last few decades (see Howard Dean), Leahy would not be in the Senate.
