More Bailout Dough ?!!!

James P.:

And some of us thought that the fortunes of America were being trusted to an unsure ship after the 2000 election results stampeded in on little florsheimed feet. It just goes to show how wrong you can be!

Shift your perspectives just a tad out of the rhetorical utterance and dialectic. To cut to the chase, America is undergoing a systematic, congressionally approved Looting by much and the same pirates and captains of industry who disembarked with our our trusts and blessings back at the beginning of 2000.

And most of the finacial community is onboard, some up in the sails and mastheads; some down below manning the bilge pumps and rigging the cargo for rough seas.

No holds for slaves and tobacco this trip, eh?

Of course

With wonderful CEO's like Richard Fuld of Leman walking away with 500 million, somebody has got to make up the loss.

You can't expect the thief to do it can you?

The buck only stops with the people that don't even get to vote on it.
