Yes, SOMETHING needs to be done. But NOT this. Hell no.

THEY can pay for it, with taxes on trades, taxes on excess income, etc. There ARE other ways to fund whatever is needed. Make them give it up for once. Congress does have the power, unless it's given away now.

Obama needs to back off from this until it's heavily Main Street, heavy with new regulating, and bank-funded instead of by taxpayers, so this can never happen again. If he doesn't, I don't believe he will be elected to do it later. And then, we'll be stuck with this debt, and President-in-waiting Palin, and Secretary of Treasury Gramm.

NO!

I'm emailing everybody. But we need media on this.

And there's this to be aware of, in case anyone missed it this morning...

If this was so crucial, bankruptcy relief would not be a dealbreaker. Nothing would be a dealbreaker. This is extortion!
