Isn't that the truth!
As I watch the senators, I find myself becoming encouraged that these guys are actually trying to adequately evaluate Paulson's plan so that they can come up sound legislation. Then, I remember that these guys are US senators and realize that they are just posturing to make their constituents think they are actually doing their jobs and to provide cover if the plan goes awry.
They all know that by Friday they will pass legislation that gives Dubya and Paulson pretty much everything they want with as much pork added as possible.
Am I too cynical? I don't trust anyone in government anymore.

Bingo!
