Don't Call It A Bailout - Call It A Rescue Plan - If It Walks Like A Duck.....
talks like a duck - it is a duck. Typical D.C. doublespeak - change the name and it will pass. They really think we're stupid don't they?


Typical *Co speak - say one thing - do the opposite.

2. My saying is
If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, swims like a duck and has feathers like a duck, it's either a duck or a closely related waterfowl.

7. Why does the free market need a rescue from government?
The government is stupid and bad. The free market is powerful, just and good.

If this bailout is so important, let the free market do it.
