Yeah, it's like ol' Milo Minderbinder in "Catch-22" telling all the fly-boys that they've 'all got a share' -- while stealing their parachutes to make a quick buck on the war-hyped silk market. He DID leave a nicely printed stock certificate in the empty bags, though, so those who got killed 'cause they didn't have a chute when needed died knowing they were part of something bigger than themselves. Makes a man proud, no?
All these years the people who own hedge fund shares have been complaining about government welfare, unearned, undeserved, unwarranted, unnecessary, unAmerican, to support worthless people. Now, when they want it, they want to receive it for your own good,unearned, undeserved, unwarranted, unnecessary, unAmerican, to support worthless people, hedge fund investors.
How many ordinary people have you ever known who own a hedge fund or have invested in one. They start at a million dollars, just to get in. Wake up, dammit. Let them balance their own checkbook.
Congress still hasn't given up on Bush's bailout boondoggle. I get the impression that Congress isn't LISTENING to the American people...who have been pretty up front and vocal saying "Don't bail out the bankers". Yes, hard times are probably ahead, but I do not believe they will be prevented by giving a $700 billion loan guarantee to the very insitutions that have already failed us.
STOP THE BAILOUT BOONDOGGLE!!

DO YOU STILL WANT TO VOTE FOR HIM?
Mr Bush is a complete loser who has driven our country into the ground. We are bankrupt and the world looks at us so differently as they have in the past.
I only hope that Mr. Bush is prosecuted for some if not all of the horrors that he planted upon our beautiful country.
She can be our queen. "Let them eat snow!"
"Maximum transparency??" We are still dumb. After all of this education, we are still dumb. Let's vote for the dumb lady. What the hell!
We are varlets, vassals and peasants. We live in the countryside, outside of the castle walls. The Idiot Prince has gambled away his heritage, declaring careless wars with distant principalities, and courting favor with the money lenders at the games of chance where he has lost his ducats and has issued so many I.O.U.'s that they will no longer extend him credit for his next big hand. He rides out into the countryside and shouts at us as we labor in his fields trying to provide him enough taxes to play at the tables. He shouts at us, "save me, save me, lend me your credit and the credit of your children and their children, so that I can keep you safe. I will let you see the books this time and you will know that I am honest. I am not a crook.! I am not a crook! I am not a crook!".
"Maximum Transparency". We are in the bullfight ring. It is Sunday. The big bullfight of the day. We are the bull. George W. Bush is the Matador. We are rushing toward the cape held by the matador, mad as hell. He says, "hah!, toro, the cape is transparent!", Ha,.....ha....ha!" We hope to Gore him. He hopes that we are Gore, and that it is the year 2000. If the cape is really transparent, then we can gore him. If it is not, then we will get the sword, right through the heart. Transparency in government is very rare. You can seldom see through the cape. Our horns are seldom useful. The only bull with useful horns has usually been the bronze bull in front of Wall Street. It has bronze balls. We will likely buy it a bronze cow to screw. It is a "bull out", most likely, pronounced "bailout".
A spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down.
It sickens me that no other plan has been considered and Bush gets the last laugh ! protect the rich at all costs
