No one from the Bush administration has the guts to fire back and put the blame where it belongs, right in the hands of Sen. Dodd and Rep. Frank since the relaxing of the rules occurred under their watch and “oversight”.

There are some many things that are just plain wrong with what is going on in Washington, we are all getting fed up and no one seems to take a stand and say enough is enough.

Let me give you some facts that you may not be aware off;
a) Mr. Paulson took the position of Treasury Secretary not because he wanted to serve our nation as a “public servant”, no, he took it to take advantage of a special rule that allowed him to avoid paying capital gains taxes of 15% on his estimated stock portfolio valued back in 2006 at nearly $1 Billion dollars, thus his new job put approximately $150 Million dollars in his bank account that otherwise would have gone to pay the I.R.S. Do you think this is right?

b) Mr. Jamie Dimon, CEO of JP Morgan also happens to be the head of the Federal Reserve for the New York District, the most powerful seat after Mr. Bernanke. In his role at the Fed, he is supposed to be in charge of regulating banks, lately all he has done is orchestrated sweetheart deals to buy Bears & Sterns and Washington Mutual for just pennies on the dollar. If this is not a “conflict of interest” nothing else is. Do you think this is right?

This is one of the most important issues of our lifetime, one that will determine the future course of our great nation. Congressman Ron Paul is absolutely right.

How many billions have we the taxpayers given to Mr. Paulson and Mr. Bernanke since the start of 2008, (several hundred billions already), do you think this 700 billion will be it? I sincerely doubt it, all it will do is turn our weak dollar to a worthless piece of paper for generations to come.

A strong economy drives Wall Street up, a weak economy will not, so fictitious action to make Wall Street artificially strong has no chance for success.

Voting NO on this one will not hurt the Republicans, let the Democrats support this bail out, they have enough votes to pass it, let them pay for the consequences.

God bless America, at least some of our congressman have heard us.

Also, it is said that Americans save minus 1 percent. How is it that if you want to borrow money and its 7,10, 15 and 25% But just park a thousand and all you get is .0001 or something so small it doen’t even make the graph! How about fixing that one!! Wouldn’t you save money if you received those high rates of borrowing to those high rates to our savings instead?

I stopped watching Fox News a while back, because of the way they treated Dr.Paul.
To this day, I feel that Ron Paul is the only one in Washington that has a grasp on the economy & actually looks out for us, the tax payers.

Shame on Fox News & all the other medias that showed such disrespect, for such a VERY WISE MAN = Dr. Ron Paul…..

Though the economy would STINK for a time, we need this bailout to go the way of the dodo bird. Business cycles are necessary to stop capital from chasing bad ideas for too long a time. Government intervention prevents the natural destruction of bad ideas from occuring.

Long commodities, short financials. Nope – short ‘em both. A commodity bubble was formed when the real estate bubble popped- commodities crash when economies do.
