I have a suggestion for our Congress.
Put down the drumstick, get on the next plane to Washington, and figure out what needs to be done about these bailouts? My suggestion would be to appoint an army of regulators with the authority to look at all the records of every bank or financial institution doing business in this country. If we don't know how much they owe and what they are worth, we should not be handing over billions and billions of dollars for a pig in a poke. Let's get the facts first.

And stop kow-towing to these criminals in their fancy suits. If you can't do the job or you feel it is above your pay-grade, perhaps we should put someone else in your seat that is willing to tackle the job? We cannot accept the manner in which Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi have been doing their jobs. In effect, they are operating on blind trust of the Big Banks. They need to get back to Washington and figure out how to make our auto manufacturers sound once again and how to put people to work. Once the people have money, then the banks will be more sound. Not vice-versa.
