I believe that RightisRight, and whoever flagged his erroneous post as "newsworthy", owes me and BetelG an apology.

Happy to help.

Looks like Barney Frank and his group owes us ALL an apology. Just like Katrina outed the corrupted government in Louisiana, this latest scare out Barney and his group!

So, just stop, unless you don't know this, and in that case, GET EDUCATED!

Than Plain? hell no! Anybody who can see Russia out her window while hitting the bong is superduperqualified. To not agree would be sexist...
Now, if she only kept one eye on her skank-ass daughter. But maybe she was using that one to ogle Brad.

You have to love those self-retorting Retorts!

Sold right next to Palin's jet...

Bond, James Bond would be sooo embarrassed.

What's even funnier is that you think Obama is more qualified. LOL!!!

What will that be, and when?

Asian markets fall on U.S. bailout failure

#615 | Posted by Corky

You're new at this, aren't you?

The Asian markets follow the US markets.

If you didn't see it, the US markets feel quite a bit today.

NO=GO! Today's vote was an IQ test. A no vote proves a lack of fitness for office. Lets remove all NO voters this November. Protect your family, protect your retirement!

NO=GO

#616 | Posted by Bluetruck

LOL!!! Funny! Wait, you are serious?

Dumbass, you havn't been paying attention! The thing didn't pass because the Republicans wised up and didn't let it pass. There needs to be a better bill and that's going to take time.

let them pay taxes then

But they're endorsing Obama!

Some of us with cooler heads know the true meaning of a 7% correction: a buying opportunity.

Every word you say that's either negative or fearful only puts more of your money in my pocket.

LOL!!! Consider the source!!

How can you trust anything coming from an organization that is dependent on the government for its very existence and is frieghtened any time a Republican wins anything!

Suddenly, the Libs on this thread have fled. Was it something I said? :D

They are waiting for Kos and Huffington to tell them what to say.

Funny Flag

A lot of us knew that Bush was useless in 2000. That's why we didn't vote for him. I suppose there were a few who changed their mind and voted for him in 2004 but there were many, many more who finally knew he was useless in 2004 but voted for him again anyway because that's what they do. Thanks, guys. At least most of you are suffering along with the rest of us but I don't suppose it will stop you voting for McSame and the bimbo this time around because that's what you do.

#18 | Posted by BlueInBushland

I agree with you 100%, there Blue, but Bushie ain't that only one...

So let me be the first to thank you and the rest of the Libs for this Financial Crisis:

Some leader there,she really wanted to get even instead of getting things done

Pelosi is walking around in circles right now with her fists tightened and saying the same word, over and over... Fuck! ... Fuck! ... FUCK! ...

Suddenly, the Libs on this thread have fled. Was it something I said? :D

It is important to note that 91% of the defaults are by minorities.

Fine. But everyone knows that the collective value of those defaults doesn't even come close to $700 Billion. Wall Street is still lying to you.

#564 | Posted by Norm_

Agreed. This is the biggest swindle of all time.

But, God Willing, this bill will never pass.

Danni, listen to this youtube video of hearings on the floor in 2004 when tighter regulation of FMae and FMac was being proposed by the Republicans.

AA,

This is an extremely damning video for the Democrats.

I can see now why the Democrats were so eager to white wash it with dollar Bills

Alex,

In case you missed it...

The Parties agreed to each provide half the votes for his Bill. The Dems did, the Rethugs didn't.

#523 | Posted by Corky

That's a weak argument."

No it isn't when no one knows really if the "crisis" will actually melt down or if this bailout will even fix it. Why should the Dems now assume the majority of the blame for passing a bill proposed by Bush and Paulsen???? Put themselves on the hook for blame if the REpublicans won't share the responsibility???

#533 | Posted by danni

Danni,

It appears that the House Republicans are the wise ones today. The Democrats wanted this piece of Socialism to pass and they called it Cooperation, at the same time Pelosi was PooPooing Bush's 8 years in office (ever hear of "Quit while you're ahead?")

But, the Republicans wised up and backed out at the last minute! They won the day!!!

Yeah, the market took a 700 point hit, but it's better than a 12,000 point hit, don't you think?

Awwww. Did Nancy make a mean speech and give beohner a boo boo?

These republicans fucked the DOW today because they have the emotional maturity of 5 year olds.

#529 | Posted by Alexandrite

Wow, Alex. I thought you were smarter than that.

What I think happened is that the majority of the Republicans did not want to support this bill. If they are true Conservatives, none of them would not

http://www.ronpaul.com

I think they were coersed into cooperating with the Democrats, most of whom thought the bill was a good idea (SHAME) and with the dumbass neocon president.

But when Pelosi showed a complete lack of leadership (she IS Speaker of the House, right?), they said, screw it! Fuck her!

This is my loose opinion on that dibacle.

Anyway, I'm glad it happened. Wall Street would have done this anyway, but it would have been a slow death, over a much longer period of time.

Did the market recover after 911?

Anyway, Alex. That was a dumb attempt at slamming the Republicans with a blanket statement. Not all the Republicans fell into that trap. But Pelosi sure made an ass of herself today. Comical!

Absolutely correct except for one small detail. "It's about taking down the Corporate Empire." Much better.

#437 | Posted by dfiant

It's truely amasing to see how many people are completely ignorant of our position in the world. We are the American Empire. We control all of the oil in the world and our currency is the World's reserve curency.

If you doubt this, then please explain to me why we have 700+ military bases around the world!!! Yes, 700+, outside the US.

Keynsian approach

Is this another way of waving a magic wand?

Thankfully we will be getting a Dem president and Dem Congress who will begin shifting to a more Keynsian approach, get wages rising, create jobs, enact reasonable taxes on wealth, enact reasonable tariffs to create fair instead of free trade.

#406 | Posted by danni

you can't do any of that unless you nationalize the Federal Reserve, back the dollar with something other than oil, and stop printing money out of thin air.

Then the American jobs will begin to appear again. American companies won't go overseas.

It's not about getting a Democrat in office! It's about taking down the American Empire.

Have you ever heard Obama talk about taking down the Empire? Cut spending? NO!! You haven't He'll just continue to spend overseas and make us pay for it!

How can you create jobs when Corporations don't want to pay the already high taxes and the already high salaries?

How?

Your GOP choked, as usual.

#400 | Posted by Corky

Good! I didn't want this bailout anyway.

But it's fun watching Pelosi fail. She had it, but she had to start a food fight.

GROW UP PELOSI!

Huh....how many Republicans are voting against???
How many different positions in five days did John McCain take???

#393 | Posted by danni

Themajority of the Republicans are voting against it! It's a socialist move for the government to go and buy up failing companies.

That's why most Democrats voted for it. More regulation!

I say let the banks fail and then regulate the crap out the banks, nationalise the Federal Reserve!!!

Pelosi hurt my lil wimpy republitard feelings so I won't vote for the bill. Who cares how many lives I wreck because of this? I am a rightie who PROVES the US in USA only comes after me........

#383 | Posted by Liberal_Mongrel

LOL!!! Pelosi had it done!

Then she went and play politics. How stupid is that?

I'm glad it didn't pass. Looks like the market is going to take care of the problem anyways.
