Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Monday, March 15, 2010

if this bill is about health care, then why put this in as well when it could mean the govt deciding who goes to college by deciding who gets the money and how its to be paid back if at all. one more instance of progressives takeover of every moment of your life and that doesnt even address the COSTS.

SEN candidate Carly Fiorina (R) says it best: "Conservatives, independents, moderates, Republicans, Democrats, Tea Partiers, Libertarians - all of us now belong to one party: The 'Had Enough Party.'"

"The modern Democrat Party is little more than a slightly evolved pack of locusts, moving from one state to another, destroying everything they touch."

"It doesn't matter what industry you work in -- coal, gas, electric, insurance, finance, pharma, telecommunications, health care -- it doesn't matter whether you're in a union or not -- the Democrats are targeting your jobs. They've said so: they relentlessly condemn the very profits that pay your salaries. Because they despise free enterprise and individual liberty. They want control..."

"whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government"

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security"

For those of you who read the last two paragraphs in horror realize it comes from a famous document.

"SEN candidate Carly Fiorina (R) says it best: "

Who gives a shit what that fired, failed CEO thinks?

It just goes to show the chutzpah of corporate America these days that a discard like Fiorina thinks her losership of HP qualifies her for the U.S. Senate.

This is great news long-term for conservatives. Banks at least were motivated to get the education loan money out the door as quickly as possible.

Now, hundreds of thousands of college kids will get introduced to what it's like waiting for some government bureaucrat to get off his ass before you get paid. And by then, classes have already started.

It's good they learn things like that as early as possible. Usually you have to go into business for yourself before you realize the uselessness of government. Courtesy of Obama, that's now been moved up to Freshman Orientation.

It's all about control - more's the pity.

What about saving 20% and higher interest rates on student loans don't you like, MSGT?

You realize the government has been giving this money to banks and other entities to lend out and they've been gauging students with it, right?

Its a takeover I tell ya, a takeover. Obama is crazy for power and control, its a takeover I tells ya, a takeover.

That damn Obama wants to take over everything I'm tellin ya. He's power mad....The loony right wing sees everything as a takeover.

What ever the hell that means.

hahahaha 'REDSTATE!' seriously?

why dont you just bring us an article from fox news?

or rush limbaughs ass?

is something WRONG with cutting out the big bank middleman who's participation contributes NOTHING to the value of their loans or the education they receive?

the only thing that sucks about this is that it had to be inserted into an unrelated bill in order to be passed. in a country that wasnt owned and operated by the banks, this wouldnt be necessary.

wow in only 9 posts we have just about every way imagined to show dems as proponents of lies and GOVT TAKEOVER....and a raging lunatic in oldwhisky...(a respectfull lunatic..lol)...

and the whole thing isnt getting ANY or little if any coverage on any network but fox....

GOVT takeover of student loans...and wheRE will this money come from??????

If they had paid more attention in their eight grade math class they would not have taken out a loan at a 20% interest rate. I paid 4% and had it paid off in 5 years.

Well you definitely SOUND like you get your info from fox.

"OOOO! Government takeover of ____________ ! Booga Boo! They're comin' for your guns next!"

The money to pay it back will come from the students themselves, just like it does now. Only they'll pay it back at a lower percentage because the loan is provided by a government instead of a bunch or greedy corporate fatcat fucks.

Any more questions fox couldnt answer for you with a quick and scary slogan?

It's ridiculous that anyone would support a system where the government lends money to banks who borrow it then add a huge profit margin and soak college students faced with ever rising tuition bills.

Direct lending is the pragmatic approach. One the GOP don't want to take because they're in the pockets of every scheme that nets profits for corporations at the expense of average Americans.

what a silly last sentence...make it sound like the dems are squeakly clean and an alternative...
