So we have these bozos in Washington currying fear to rationalize their own existence and actions. Only now after we acted so damn fast, full speed ahead with blinders on, are the people who were supposed to be helping actually asking the questions that needed to be asked like 3 months ago. This is example infinty+1 of how our system is so fouled up. While the media is busy exacting it's pound of flesh from the Democrats why isn't anyone asking why the Republicans, who were supposed to "fiscally conservative", didn't see fit to ask these questions? They played similar politics and just voted against or derailed where they could without actually having any good reasosn apparently other than it wasn't their idea.
Well some of them were asking these questions and only a few voted for the stimulas bill which just gave AIG a bunch of more money. Hey, the dems control both houses and President. Its their time to take the heat for the screw ups. I'm not one to point fingers but when you have total control its all on you. Just like I rip the Rep. back when they had total control and did nothing.
