I might have to walk from the homeless shelter to vote....


If they end this legislative session without a bailout, we're all screwed.


They might as well be on the unemployment line with us.

16. Why not just say that you don't understand the bailout?
Instead of making silly, unfounded comments.

5. Great. Succumb to Bush's financial terror to hand over the treasury


Stick em up!

Or, rather BEND OVER.

We can solve these problems without giving them 700 billion dollars.

22. I'll see Barnum's "minute" and raise him "30 seconds"
I think there are twice as many as Barnum assumed.

11. Guess what? You can only vote against the Rep in *your* district!
What are you going to do, move to a new district every two years to cast your vote against any seated incumbent that voted against the bailout?

Best of luck with what is sure to be a very effective voting strategy.

:crazy:

14. I'm with you. And I can't believe how stupid ppl are to think we are giving the money to the rich.
Barney is my hero and if he's for it, I'm for it. He knows a whole hell of a lot more about this than I do.

17. You don't know what you are talking about...
Quit spreading fear!

This is a global problem now. It isn't just US banks or stock exchange. We cannot bail the world out of this mess. Giving Wall Street $700 Billion is foolish.

Congratulations for swallowing Bush's Kool Aid whole.
