700 billion bailout
Published Sep. 28, 2008So despite hearing from many Americans that they do not want this bailout to go through, the Congress is doing it anyway. I already intend to vote against all incumbents that inhabit Congress, so how our current Senators and House Members voted on this will not make a difference in my vote. Will passage of this bailout package affect how you are going to vote?

That is pretty much what i have been thinking...a bottom up "New Deal" type of approach vs the top down approach that is currently being considered.

It is not at all uncustomary for calls of bipartisan support in Congress for bills of such crucial importance to the nation. However, do not forget that the bailout plan was first handed to Congress by the Bush administration. One interesting thing that Congress did add to the bill, which Bush did not want, was strict oversight.

So you're just gonna copy, and believe in, allegations that others have made in the internet without checking facts? Guess what, it's not up to Raines and Obama to show that Raines is NOT Obama's adviser (although they both have stated that he isn't); it's up to the accusers to prove that Raines IS Obama's senior economic adviser. So where's the proof for the allegations you're making? Without any proof you're just spreading unsupported rumors that you know you can't support.
