Bush just needs to go away.

All Bail-Out Terms Must Include The RESIGNATION of BARNEY FRANKS AND CHRIS DODD!" - Rush Limbaugh

[RexBeach]

OMG, here comes Hell...on paper.

This bailout needs to be scuttled, quickly.

I think the better alternative, which was proposed by Newt Gingrich, is the elimination of the cap gains tax.

Eliminating cap gains would draw in foreign investment, bring jobs to America, maybe even entice companies to relocate to America.

Eliminating cap gains would reward successful businesses, give a break to struggling businesses and punish failing businesses, because failing businesses have no cap gains to report.

See Newt’s article:http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=ZGE5MmE0YmRiODA3YTRiNzFlN2FmNDU5N2I0ZDc3YTE=

Getting government out of the way is much better than creating a massive government program.

Paulson says this must be done by Friday, something stinks. $700 billion, isn’t that larger than the entire military budget?

[Tempest]

Oh dear Lord, tell me this is a joke.

[SE Mom]

NOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo!!!

I can’t believe this is happening.

God help us.

[Cold Heat]

They are backing up on the equity stake idea.....That’s what this means, or should mean.

Barney Frank and oversight.

Barney Frank, according to his OWN TESTIMONY couldn't over see his own HOME, let alone any important facet of our economy!

Barney Frank and Christopher Dodd need to be put in JAIL for their criminal complicity in this crime of THEFT against the American people.

If Rep. Barney Frank, the Financial Services Committee chairman, says the financial rescue plan is OK, it is NOT OK for normal, conservative taxpayer citizens. The man and his party are twisted, nuts that are parasites on the rest of us.

They want judges to rewrite mortgage terms in bankruptcy. If that passes interest rates will skyrocket on homes.

[stockpirate]

Bush is a Sellout, POS dirtbag.

Barney Frank is one of the reasons this is happening.

The Socialists, BUSH included have just nationalized 3 businesses.

We are now officially the Banana Republic of America. When the markets run out of money, when debt spirals, when the government has to print trillions of dollars more to bailout the economy, I'd say we've now become honorary members of the third world.

Add to that the fact that gas is now in very short supply down here in the south and you can't help but get this surreal feeling that you've suddenly been transported to Argentina or Zimbabwe.

Who among us would have believed in the Spring that by the Fall, all the major Wall St investment banks would be either bought out, bankrupt or restructured or some combination of the above? The whole thing is unreal.....but real.

[VictoryGal]

Not good — not good.

[Wuli]

when Barney Frank says:

“strong congressional oversight”,

what is really meant is:

“strong congressional political tinkering, to go on forever after, with who benefits and who loses, to the detriment of the taxpayers, to the enrichment of members of Congress and the interests their tinkering will benefit”

[kempo]

OK, I'll ask the big question. Should I go to the bank tomorrow and draw all of my money out and bury it in the back yard?

[mysterio]

It's strange that those who ran on a "conservative" platform are running as far from conservatism as possible and have been for some time.

Are we to gather from this that conservatism doesn't work? I certainly don't believe this. Does President Bush?
